Senate Summons Baru & Shell Over Revocation, Re-award Of OML 13 by nwakibie3(m): 8:40am On Oct 17, 2017 |
Damilola Oyedele in Abuja The Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions has summoned the Group Managing Director (GMD) of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mr. Maikanti Baru, and Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) over the alleged revocation and re-award of Oil Mining Licence (OML) 13 without due process. The NNPC was accused of re-awarding the revoked licence by executive fiat to one of its subsidiaries, Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC), without the stipulated licensing round bids, thereby shrouding the transaction in secrecy. The management of SPDC was also summoned to explain its role in the revocation of OML 13 which the committee noted could become another scandal like the one caused by Malabu OPL 245, if not properly resolved. The committee’s summons was borne of out a petition to the Senate by the National Coordinator, Global Peace and Sustainability Network, Mr. Longers Anyanwu. The Chairman of the Committee, Senator Sam Anyanwu, speaking at the commencement of hearing into the matter yesterday, said the Managing Director of SPDC has already been invited three times but refused to appear. He added that a warrant of arrest would be issued against the MD if he fails to honour the fresh summons. Anyanwu added that the Senate would ensure that all conduit through which the nation’s resources are siphoned are blocked. Speaking earlier while testifying before the committee, the petitioner, Anyanwu, said OML 13 is an onshore oil block on the Eastern Niger Delta, with an acreage of 1,923Sq.m, a production capacity of about 33,500 barrels daily, comprising 39 oil wells. He added that it is made up of Oil Prospecting Licence (OPL ) 2001, 2002 abs 2003, formerly operated by SPDC but was revoked along with other blocks in 2005. “OML 13 was offered in the 2007 Licencing Rounds where Jahcon International Limited won OPL 2091, Hi Rev Exploration and Production won OPL 2002 while Oil and Industrial Services Limited won OPL 2003, with commitments to pay signature bonuses of $ 46 million’ $66 million abs $34 million respectively.” “The said OML 13 was sometime between February and Mach 2016, revoked and awarded to Nigerian Petroleum Development Company, a subsidiary abs of the production arm of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC through executive fiat and without going through the statutory Licencing Bids Rounds.” “Curiously, this OML 13 which was awarded to the NPDC through an executive fiat has been re-awarded to Sterling Oil Exploration and Energy Production Company (SEEPCO) without as much as this offer going through an open tender abs the advertisement of a Licencing Bids Round by the relevant authorities.” “It is evident that this transaction is shrouded in mystery and under the table circumstances. Hence, it is the intention of this petition to compel the Senate to use its position to cause a full scale inquiry into this ambiguous transaction. “From our investigation, we are able to establish that NPDC and SEEPCO could not produce evidence of fair play either in the award of OML 13 or, in the unlikely circumstance in the award of a contract of Farm Out, Farm In by the NPDC to SEEPCO as stipulated by the extant Nigerian laws regulating operations in the oil and gas industry and the Public Procurement Act which regulates the activities of agencies defined in the Act as procuring agents,” the petition read. Anyanwu called for outright cancellation and reversal of the entire process, which he said is shrouded in fraudulent and corrupt processes and never complied with the laid-down procedure contained in the extant laws, regulations and guidelines established for operations in the oil and gas industry. https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2017/10/17/senate-ctee-summons-baru-shell-over-revocation-re-award-of-oml-13/

Buhari and Baru go finish dis country before dey commot for office..!! Am sure it was hijacked from a Southerner and dashed to a Fulani Northerner. Or from Christian to Northern Muslim. I warned the people in 2015 that Buhari and Disaster are twins but a well zombiefied populace led by Afonjas and Ameachi won't listen. 33 Likes 6 Shares |

The senate needs to assure Nigerians they can be trusted again..that there still remains at least a small dint of transparency and trust Nigerians can hold on to. We are watching the development keenly. 1 Like 1 Share |

Is kachikwu still wrong... or he spoke the truth that are beginning to unfold gradually. The truth is dat Nigeria and Nigerian masses are not worth dying for... Cos if u say the truth that's making them to suffer, they prefer to attack u than going after their oppressors.. 10 Likes 1 Share |
