FG Unveils Fresh Fiscal Incentives to Enhance Nigeria's Oil and Gas Industry.
The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Wale Edun, has announced two significant fiscal incentives designed to rejuvenate Nigeria's oil and gas industry:
- Value Added Tax (VAT) Modification Order 2024
- Notice of Tax Incentives for Deep Offshore Oil & Gas Production, in accordance with the Oil & Gas Companies (Tax Incentives, Exemption, Remission, etc.) Order 2024.
The VAT Modification Order 2024 introduces exemptions for several essential energy products and infrastructure, such as Diesel, Feed Gas, Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), Electric Vehicles, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) infrastructure, and Clean Cooking Equipment. These initiatives aim to reduce living costs, enhance energy security, and expedite Nigeria's shift towards cleaner energy alternatives.
Furthermore, the Notice of Tax Incentives for Deep Offshore Oil & Gas Production introduces fresh tax relief options for projects in deep offshore exploration. This initiative is designed to establish Nigeria's deep offshore basin as a top-tier choice for international oil and gas investments.
These reforms are components of a larger set of policy initiatives focused on investment, advocated by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as outlined in Policy Directives 40-42. They demonstrate the administration's unwavering dedication to promoting sustainable development within the energy sector and boosting Nigeria's competitive standing in global oil and gas production.
