Oando Plc reported a nine percent increase in revenue to ₦2.78 trillion in the first nine months of 2026, as production rose by 14 percent. Stronger operational efficiency and higher crude oil liftings, gas and natural gas liquids (NGL) sales contributed to the earnings boost. The indigenous energy company's average daily production reached 42,985 barrels of oil equivalent per day, up from 37,614 boepd in the same period last year.
Operating profit hit ₦159.7 billion, reversing the previous year's loss of ₦109.7 billion. Gross profit surged by 483 percent to ₦174.5 billion, reflecting the improved production volumes and costs. Group Chief Executive Wale Tinubu attributed the performance to diligent execution under the operatorship, supported by renewed investment.
The company's drilling programme aims to raise production capacity over the medium term, targeting an additional 16,000 to 20,000 boepd. Tinubu also mentioned a proposed equity raise to reduce leverage and support future shareholder distributions.
