The article presents information related to the oil and gas industry of Nigeria and its environmental impacts. Nigeria is Africa's largest oil producer and fifth-largest supplier of foreign oil to the US. It is reported that gas flares from the oil wells, refineries, and other petroleum facilities in Nigeria are causing a major threat to global warming. The article specifically refers to the partnership between the Nigerian National Petroleum Corp. and oil companies Chevron, Shell, and Ghana's Volta River Authority under which natural gas will be exported through an offshore pipeline known as the West Africa Gas Pipeline to Ghana.
