Nigeria Oil Bunkering, Off-OPEC Production, and Missing Billions
An intelligence report from an oil engineer in Nigeria explains "Off-OPEC" oil, a form of bunkering where excess production is sold illegally. The report alleges that militants like Tom Polo are contracted to protect these flows with the complicity of the Nigerian Navy. Discrepancies involving $20 billion in missing funds from the NNPC are also detailed.
