products using vessels, due to the significant losses experienced through pipeline vandalism. The<br />

costs also cover manning and management of <strong>NNPC</strong>’s storage vessels; MT Tuma and MT Olobiri, and<br />

other throughput expenses. The detailed breakdown of the cost is listed below;<br />
