NNPC
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited is a state-owned oil company in Nigeria. Still a fully owned government company, it was transformed from a corporation into a limited liability company in July 2022. NNPC Limited is the only entity licensed to operate in the country's petroleum industry. It partners with foreign oil companies to explore Nigeria's fossil fuel resources. The NNPC, with an asset of $153B (USD), is the largest national oil company in Africa. The company boasts of extensive infrastructure and investment in the downstream, midstream and upstream of the Nigerian petroleum industry.
NNPC by law manages the joint venture between the Nigerian federal government and a number of foreign multinational corporations, which include Royal Dutch Shell, Agip, ExxonMobil, TotalEnergies, Chevron, and Texaco (now merged with Chevron). Through collaboration with these companies, the Nigerian government conducts petroleum exploration and production.
The NNPC Towers, located in Abuja, serves as the headquarters of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). The complex consists of four identical towers and is situated on Herbert Macaulay Way in the Central Business District of Abuja. NNPC also maintains zonal offices in cities including Lagos, Kaduna, Benin City, Port Harcourt, and Warri. Additionally, it operates an international office in London, United Kingdom.

In December 2021, the Federal Government of Nigeria and NNPC Ltd signed a ₦621 billion Memorandum of Understanding to finance the construction of critical road infrastructure across the country.
Following passage of a Petroleum Industry Act in August 2021, NNPC now operates as a commercial entity without relying on government funding and direct controls.

The company will continue to ensure energy security in Nigeria. On 27 June 2024, it delivered its first DES LNG Cargo at Futtsu, Japan.
On April 2, 2025, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu dissolved the board of NNPC Limited and appointed Bayo Ojulari as the new group chief executive officer(GCEO). Ahmadu Musa Kida was appointed the new non-executive chairman, replacing Chief Pius Akinyelure.
