Nigeria’s crude oil and condensate output rises marginally in August, according to figures released by the Nigeria Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC). The NUPRC’s crude oil and condensate statistics report, published on Sunday, says production increases by 0.4% month-on-month.
Both outlets report that output reaches about 1.68 million barrels per day (bpd) in August, compared with roughly 1.67 million bpd in July. The reporting attributes the change directly to NUPRC’s official statistics, without describing any specific policy shifts or operational events driving the movement. The overall coverage focuses on the same headline metric—an incremental rise in production—while providing limited additional detail beyond the month-to-month comparison.
Taken together, the sources present a consistent picture: August sees a small uptick in Nigeria’s crude oil output, as measured by NUPRC in its August statistics report.
