Why Nigerian crude

Light, sweet grades that refiners around the world rely on.

Nigeria is one of Africa's largest oil producers. Its Niger Delta grades are low in sulfur and rich in high-value products like gasoline and diesel — making them a staple for refineries in Europe, India, Asia and the Americas.
