Oil marketers extend operation as fuel scarcity lingers
08:29pm, Wednesday, 16'th Feb 2022 Ripples Nigeria
The Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria (MOWAN) on Wednesday ordered filling stations in the country to extend their hours of operation in a bid to end the long queues at the retail outlets. Queues had returned to fuel stations in Lagos and other parts of the country following the discovery of off-spec petroleum products in circulation by industry regulators. The MOMAN Chairman, Olumide Adeosun, gave the directive in a statement on Wednesday in Lagos. He ordered the filling stations to operate between 18 to 24 hours daily. Aside from retailers, jetties and depots are also expected to work with this timeframe as the marketers continue to work alongside Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited and other regulatory authorities to resolve the fuel crisis experienced by motorists, businesses and households.

Oil Tumbles After Iran Nuclear Negotiator Says "We Are Closer Than Ever To An Agreement"
08:21pm, Wednesday, 16'th Feb 2022 Zero Hedge
Oil Tumbles After Iran Nuclear Negotiator Says "We Are Closer Than Ever To An Agreement" One of the biggest risks cited frequently by Goldman to its bullish oil case, was that the Iran nuclear deal would finally be signed, allowing several more million barrels of oil to hit the global market every day (even though Iran is already selling most of its oil products to China, just not strictly speaking legally). Well, the reason why oil has slumped this afternoon is because Iran''s top nuclear negotiator, Ali Bagheri Kani said on Twitter on Wednesday that "after weeks of intensive talks, we are closer than ever to an agreement; nothing is agreed until everything is agreed, though." Also on Wednesday, France said a decision on salvaging Iran''s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers was just days away and it was now up to Tehran to make the political choice. Indirect talks between Iran and the United States on reviving the tattered agreement resumed last week after a 10-day hiatus. Many have speculated that the Biden administration, which has seen its approval rating plummet as a result of surging inflation and near-record high gas prices, will ram through any deal with Iran in hopes of unlocking the country''s oil output and depressing oil prices…
