Comparative Study Of The Quantity Of Gas Flared By The Joint Venture Companies From 2003-2012 A Case Study Of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (Nnpc)
ABSTRACT
Comparative
analysis of the quantity of gas flared by the joint venture companies in
Nigeria from 2003 - 2012 was carried out in this study. The study was motivated
by the enormous negative implications of gas flaring on the socio-economic and
health status of the people. It aimed at the determination of significance of
the joint venture companies and years on gas flaring. Data on quantity of gas
flared, in cubic metres, by the individual joint venture companies over the
years were collected from Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)
through the website: www.nnpcgroup.com and were analyzed using the fixed effect
model of two-way Analysis of Variance without interaction. The result showed
that there is significant difference in the quantity of gas flared by the joint
venture companies and the quantities also differ significantly among the years.
The pairwise comparison test revealed that Shell Petroleum Development Company
(SPDC), Mobil, Chevron and Nigerian Agip Oil Company (NAOC) were the leading
companies in gas flaring without any significant difference among the quantity
of gas they flared. They were followed by Total E&P who flared gas more
than TEXACO and PAN OCEAN without any significant difference in the quantity of
gas flared by the later two companies. Comparison of quantity of gas flared
according to years showed no significant difference in the quantity of gas
flared from 2003 - 2006 and the quantities flared in these years exceeded the
quantities flared for the rest of the years. Quantities of gas flared from
2007-2011 appeared not to be significantly different. The least quantity of gas
was flared in 2012.
