Nigeria remains in top 7 gas-flaring countries despite reducing gas flaring by 500 million SCF

The reduction volume of 500 million SCF is, however, still regarded as a very low volume when compared with the intended volume needed to remove the country from the list of gas-flaring nations.

According to recent data by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCl), in January, gas flaring was reduced by 500 million Standard Cubit Feet (SCF) from 10 billion SCF recorded in December 2022 to hit 9.5 billion SCF.
