Overview
Bonny Light crude oil is produced in Nigeria from Chevron and Shell concessions. Chevron’s exports are throughput and loaded from the Shell-operated Bonny Terminal, which can accommodate Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) loading. The typical cargo size is 950 thousand barrels; however, alternate cargo sizes can be arranged with advance planning. Typically, cargoes are sold with pricing based off Brent (Dated) quotes. Chevron-operated fields are contributing production of approximately 40 thousand barrels per day. Chevron has a 40% interest in the concession that produces crude oils that are routed to and commingled with Bonny Light crude oil.
