  • Where is petroleum produced in Niger?
  • However, it is only since 2011 with the opening of the Agadem oilfield and the Soraz refinery near Zinder that petroleum is being produced in Niger. The oil and gas extracted from the Agadem field are processed at the Soraz refinery. The refined products (gasoline, diesel and liquified natural gas) are primarily for domestic consumption.
  • When did Niger start producing oil?
  • The beginning of oil production in Niger in 2011 was accompanied by the construction of a refinery near Zinder (Société de raffinage de Zinder, commonly known as Soraz). The total petroleum refining capacity is 20,000 barrels per day.
  • Are there any oil companies in Niger?
  • There are two other oil companies which also operate on other blocks in Niger: the Sonatrach Group (SIPEX) and Savannah Energy. Both of them, in the active exploration phase, have made significant discoveries over the last three years ? SIPEX on the Kafra block (on the Algerian border) and Savannah on R3 (acquired from CNPC).
  • Does CNPC produce oil in Niger?
  • Sonatrach holds the Kafra block, while UK-based Savannah Energy holds two more blocks. As of December 2023, CNPC is only company producing oil in Niger. Oil is extracted from the Agadem field and transported through an underground 426.5 kilometres (265.0 mi) long pipeline to the Soraz refinery near Zinder.
