Investigative Forensic audit of crude oil revenues and remittances by <strong>NNPC</strong> (January 2012 – July 2013)<br />

Table G6 – Summary of Refined Products Losses<br />

4.7.4.2.3. Valuati<strong>on</strong> of product losses using Ex-depot price<br />

<strong>NNPC</strong> adopted the ex-depot price (per litre) for refined petroleum products to value the product<br />

losses during the review period. The c<strong>on</strong>versi<strong>on</strong> rates used were;<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

PMS at N87.66/litre<br />

DPK- N40.9/litre and;<br />

AGO at N126/ litre<br />

The Ex-Depot price is the selling price for petroleum products at the depots nati<strong>on</strong>wide plus other<br />

unavoidable charges such as the bridging funds, marine transport agent cost and administrati<strong>on</strong> cost<br />

(depending <strong>on</strong> the product), as shown in the table below;<br />

Table G7 – Product Losses Unit cost Valuati<strong>on</strong><br />

We also adopted the ex-depot price, c<strong>on</strong>sidering that it would ordinarily be the price at which <strong>NNPC</strong><br />

would have received petroleum products from the marketers after all unavoidable charges have been<br />

paid, if the petroleum products were not lost in transit. This implies that <strong>NNPC</strong> can still claim<br />

Subsidy from the total refined petroleum products including that for the product losses.<br />

Vanguardngr<br />

However it was observed that <strong>NNPC</strong> valued the lost DPK at N40.9/Litre, which is yet to be explained<br />

as shown in the table above. The comp<strong>on</strong>ents of the cost are the official selling price at N34.51/litre<br />

and other unavoidable charges (Bridging fund, Marine Transport Average and Administrative<br />

charges) at N6.15/litre, thereby summing up to N40.66/litre and not N40.9/litre used. We used<br />

N40.66/Litre for our valuati<strong>on</strong> which led to a difference of N11,249.<br />

4.7.4.2.4. Refined product losses: Casting errors and arithmetical inaccuracy<br />

There were no third party supporting documents for the difference in quantities for the refined<br />

petroleum product losses. Using the m<strong>on</strong>thly reports from <strong>NNPC</strong> operati<strong>on</strong> area for January to<br />
