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

the schedule provided. However, the different valuati<strong>on</strong>s <strong>on</strong> the schedule were also used in the<br />

m<strong>on</strong>thly FAAC reports; as such, the errors resulted in lower remittances to FAAC.<br />

<br />

Differences due to technical charges<br />

Of the total variance noted, a total sum of $18,555,899 relates specifically to technical costs <strong>on</strong><br />

two liftings 21 with “Zafiro” as the crude type. The allowance for these technical charges was<br />

c<strong>on</strong>tained in the c<strong>on</strong>tract between <strong>NNPC</strong> and the customers.<br />

Differences due to error in schedule provided<br />

For five other liftings 22 with valuati<strong>on</strong> differences totaling $11,599,531, <strong>NNPC</strong> claimed that there<br />

were errors in the pricing opti<strong>on</strong>s stated <strong>on</strong> the schedule provided to us. We reviewed COMD’s<br />

valuati<strong>on</strong> for the affected liftings and c<strong>on</strong>firmed that different pricing opti<strong>on</strong>s were used which<br />

agreed to the values <strong>on</strong> the schedules.<br />

Based <strong>on</strong> the above explanati<strong>on</strong>s, under-valued liftings totaling $3,610,815 (shown in Table A5<br />

below) resulted in value loss to the Federati<strong>on</strong>.<br />

<strong>NNPC</strong> (COMD) - $2,107,275. Subsequent to our identificati<strong>on</strong> of this issue, <strong>NNPC</strong> has amended the<br />

errors, and have reflected the amendments in the remittances to FAAC in October 2014.<br />

4.1.4.3. $2.34 billi<strong>on</strong> under reported revenue to Senate Committee<br />

The total revenue generated from our analysis from all revenue streams amounted to $69.34 billi<strong>on</strong><br />

as shown <strong>on</strong> Table A8 below). We discovered a difference of $2.34 billi<strong>on</strong> between the amount<br />

reported by <strong>NNPC</strong> to the Senate Committee and our analysis. This was as a result of the following;<br />

FIRS<br />

Informati<strong>on</strong> received from both COMD and FIRS revealed that the total revenue generated by FIRS<br />

amounted to $16 billi<strong>on</strong> which is $1 billi<strong>on</strong> higher than the amount reported to the Senate.<br />

NPDC<br />

Vanguardngr<br />

Informati<strong>on</strong> provided by NPDC to the Senate stated total revenue generated from liftings of $6.82<br />

billi<strong>on</strong>. This amount is $0.82 billi<strong>on</strong> higher than the amount quoted by the Rec<strong>on</strong>ciliati<strong>on</strong><br />

Committee.<br />
