Solar best suitable for rural electrification – NASENI

The National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure has described solar energy as the most suitable means of providing electricity to rural communities that are far away from the reach of the country’s power grid.

According to the agency, 60 per cent of Nigerians do not have access to the national grid, and most of those affected are rural dwellers.

The Executive Vice Chairman, NASENI, Mr. Mohammed Haruna, explained that the cost of installing a grid system to some communities was the major barrier to access to the national grid.

Haruni spoke with journalists during a tour of the agency’s solar panel assembly plant in Abuja on Wednesday.

Chevron’s global production, refining margins slide

Chevron Corp, the second-largest U.S. oil company, posted a fourth-quarter profit on Friday that just met Wall Street’s expectations, as refining margins and production sagged around the world.

The company reported net income of $4.93 billion, or $2.57 per share, compared with $7.25 billion, or $3.70 per share, in the year-ago period.

The quarterly profit met expectations of Wall Street analysts, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.

Oil and natural gas production fell 3.4 percent to 2.6 million barrels of oil equivalent per day in the quarter.

Chevron said rising production in the United States and Nigeria wasn’t enough to offset declining production at legacy fields around the world.

Multinational energy companies like Chevron have had trouble replacing production from older, depleting wells and have spent heavily to stem the tide. Chevron spent $41.9 billion last year on capital and exploration projects, a 23 percent increase from 2012.

OPEC oil output rises in January from 2-1/2-year low – survey

OPEC’s oil output has risen in January from December’s 2-1/2-year low, due to a partial recovery in Libyan supply and higher shipments from Iraq and Iran, a Reuters survey found on Friday.

Output from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries averaged 29.94 million barrels per day (bpd), up from a revised 29.63 million bpd in December, according to the survey based on shipping data and information from sources at oil companies, OPEC and consultants.

The survey illustrates the potential for OPEC supply to rebound in 2014 if Libya, Iraq and Iran sustain higher output. That could put pressure on oil prices without cutbacks from other members, such as Saudi Arabia.

11 vessels arrive Lagos ports with petroleum products

The Nigerian Ports Authority, NPA, on Friday said that 11 vessels carrying petroleum products had arrived in Lagos ports.

NPA said that the vessels laden, with petrol, kerosene and base oil, were waiting to berth at various terminals at the ports.

The ships position was contained in NPA’s daily publication, ‘Shipping Position’, made available in Lagos.

According to the publication, two other vessels carrying containers are also waiting to berth.

The NPA also said that it was expecting the arrival of 106 vessels from Jan. 31 to Feb. 28.

It said that 44 of the 106 vessels would arrive at the ports with containers, while 21 other vessels would sail in with food items including buckwheat and rice.

It also said that 18 vessels would arrive with petroleum products including base oil, aviation fuel, diesel and kerosene.

The vehicles are expected to arrive at the ports in 16 vessels, while seven vessels will bring in general cargoes including steel products.

URA to collect oil taxes – Kenya

Kenya Revenue Authority said yesterday oil products destined for Uganda will from Monday be cleared by that country’s tax authorities.

This follows the rolling out of the East African single customs territory at the beginning of the year after approval by heads of state summit last November. The new rules requires all the five EAC members to post customs officials at the point of entry of their import goods.

The directive means that oil companies transporting petroleum products to Uganda will now be cleared by the Uganda Revenue Authority and not the Kenya Revenue Authority as is the case under current transit regime.

Angola LNG to produce and trade 5.2 million tons of liquefied gas

The Angola LNG Company will collect, process and trade, each year, about 5.2 tons of liquefied natural gas, besides producing also propane, butane and condensed gas, at the firm’s premises in Soyo Municipality, in the northern Zaire Province.

Angola LNG is one of the greatest and most modern investments of the Angolan government (USD 10 billion), reads a note from the institution, which reached ANGOP last Wednesday.

This project is intended to be a solution for the reduction of carbon emission and it is considered a source of clean energy.

According to the document Angola LNG Company shareholders are Sonangol (22.8%), Chevron (36.4%), BP (13.6%), ENI (13.6%) and Total (13.6%).

Angola is sub-Saharan Africa’s second main producer of crude-oil.

SURE-P graduate internship scheme illegal – Senate

The chairman Senate special ad hoc committee on the Subsidy Re-Investment and Empowerment Programme (SURE-P), Senator Abdul Lingi has described the graduate internship scheme as illegal, adding that the scheme is way of looting government funds.

The committee also decried alleged mismanagement of N1.4 billion Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme (SURE-P) meant for graduate Internship Graduate Scheme by ministry of finance underDr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iwella.

Ningi, who walkout the representative of the ministry at the meeting, vowed not to appropriate anything for the SURE-P in 2014 budget.

He also added that the ministry did not have the capacity to run such scheme and promised to talk with the President on the matter.

LEADERSHIP recalls that the ad hoc committee in November opened an investigation into the expenditure of N1.4 billion on the Internship Graduate Scheme which is under the supervision of the minister of finance, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala.

Although no specific date was given by the senators for the minister to appear before them, they, however, requested her to furnish them with the list of all beneficiaries of the scheme, their locations and contact addresses among others.

In a letter addressed to the finance minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala by the committee chair Senator Abdul Ahmed Ningi (PDP, Bauchi), the panel said the ministry expended the said amount between April 2012 to April 2013.

Researchers strategise to convert unwanted carbon dioxide into electricity

Researchers are developing a new kind of geothermal power plant that will lock away unwanted carbon dioxide (CO2) underground – and use it as a tool to boost electric power generation by at least 10 times compared to existing geothermal energy approaches.

The technology to implement this design already exists in different industries, so the researchers are optimistic that their new approach could expand the use of geothermal energy in the U.S. far beyond the handful of states that can take advantage of it now.

At the American Geophysical Union meeting recently, the research team debuted an expanded version of the design, along with a computer animated movie that merges advances in science with design and cognitive learning techniques to explain the role that energy technologies can have in addressing climate change.
