Nigeria meets and exceeds its OPEC crude oil production quota in June 2026, according to figures released by the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC). Multiple outlets report that Nigeria produced an average of about 1.56 million barrels per day (mbpd) of crude oil last month, which is described as 104% of Nigeria’s OPEC allocation. The reported output represents Nigeria’s highest level since around April 2020 and is also framed as a 74-month high. Another figure cited by one outlet puts Nigeria’s crude oil and condensate production at an average of 1,735,398 barrels per day, also described as a rise after several consecutive months of growth. Vanguard links the increase to improved operational conditions that raise production uptime and enhance crude oil evacuation efficiency. The reports also note that the production improvement continues for a fourth consecutive month, based on NUPRC statements cited by the outlets.
