Nigeria's first commercial oil weil began production in 1956 at Oloibri, west of Port Harcourt. Soon after this, other wells in the area began producing oil.
Since that time oil production has expanded rapidly. Oil fields around Ughelli began production in 1964, and the next year, production began from offshore oil fields at thelIlqp~h.ofJ:he Escravos River. Ships approaching the coast of Nigeria now have to steer a careful course to avoid the oil rigs. An extensive system of pipelines was laid down for transporting oil, and these are now thousands ofkilometers in length.
The first shipment of crude oil from Nigeria was made from Port Harcourt in 1958, but because of the shallowness of the Bonny River at Port Harcourt, the port was unàble to handle large tankers. Therefore, a large modern oil terminal was developed at Bonny. A second terminal was buiIt at Escravos, and other terminaIs have since been built.
Before 1964, the whole of Nigeria's production was exported in crude form. Crude oil straight from the weIl is a dark, sticky mixture may also contain impurities such as sulphur. AlI these different compounds need to be separated and processed. This is done at a refinery.
By 1995, Nigeria had developed four refineries-two in Port Harcourt, and ethers at Wari and Kaduna. The second refinery in Port-Harcourt canprocess 150,000 barrels oil per day. A fifth one is being built. Much of Nigeria's oilprod.n;uon is now refined bef<:Tr'Q~port,thus increasing her foreign exchange eamings.
Oil has brought Nigeria much wealth. However, it can be regard",-i as a mixed blessing in sorne ways, countries that rely too heavily on one product, such as oil, often tend to negleet Oth"'Timportant sectors of the economy, such as agriculture. Oil supplies cannot last forever, and already planners are COnSll\~"inghow develop Nigeria's economy when the oil starts to run out. The foreign exchange earned from oil slaves varies: SIJU'letimes there is an oil gut, and oil priees faIl. OPEC, the organization of oil exporting countries, cannot always agree or: what priees the oil-producing eountries should charge for their oil.
