Investigative Forensic audit of crude oil revenues and remittances by <strong>NNPC</strong> (January 2012 – July 2013)<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Between 12 January and 29 January 2015, <strong>NNPC</strong> provided transacti<strong>on</strong> documents<br />
representing additi<strong>on</strong>al costs of $2.81 billi<strong>on</strong> related to the review period, citing the <strong>NNPC</strong> Act<br />
LFN No 33 of 1977 that allows such deducti<strong>on</strong>s. Clarity is required <strong>on</strong> whether such<br />
deducti<strong>on</strong>s should be made by <strong>NNPC</strong> as a first line charge, before remitting the net proceeds<br />
of domestic crude to the federati<strong>on</strong> accounts. If these are deemed not to be valid deducti<strong>on</strong>s,<br />
then the amount due from <strong>NNPC</strong> would be estimated at $2.07 billi<strong>on</strong> (without c<strong>on</strong>sidering<br />
expected known remittances from NPDC) or $4.29 billi<strong>on</strong> (if expected known remittances<br />
from NPDC are c<strong>on</strong>sidered).<br />
The Corporati<strong>on</strong> provided details of expenses to the tune of $12.97 billi<strong>on</strong> related to the<br />
review period, funded from the proceeds of domestic crude oil revenues. This is summarized<br />
in table (i) below<br />
