The Federal Ministry of Petroleum Resources is a part of the Federal Ministries of Nigeria that directs petroleum resources and its activities in Nigeria.[1][2]

History

In the beginning, Petroleum matters were handled by the Hydrocarbon Section of the Ministry of Lagos Affairs, which reported directly to the Governor-general.

The Unit delivered responsibilities such as: keeping records on exploration matters, and importation of petroleum products; enforcing safety and other regulations on matters which were then mostly products importation and distribution, etc.[3]

The Unit was upgraded to a Petroleum Division within the Ministry of Mines and Power, with the expansion of the petroleum industry activities. In 1971, the Nigerian National Oil Corporation (NNOC) was created to handle direct commercial operational activities in the oil industry on behalf of the Federal Government.[4] However, the Department of Petroleum Resources in the Federal Ministry of Mines and Power continued to exercise statutory supervision and control of the industry. In 1975, the department was upgraded to a ministry named, the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy which was later renamed the Ministry of Petroleum Resources. Then in 1985, the Ministry of Petroleum Resources was re-established.[3]
