Nigeria complying with Opec cut



By Upstream staff 

Nigeria is fully implementing an Opec oil output decision starting from 1 January, a Nigerian official said, providing further evidence the group's decision are widely followed.

The person said the new quota, which stands at around 1.7 million barrels a day, should be fully effective by the end of February.

Opec decided 17 December to reduce its overall production by 2.2 million barrels a day as it tries to rein a steep drop in oil prices, said a Dow Jones Newswires note.
