Mr. Adegbite Falade, CEO of Aradel Holdings Plc, commented:

“2024 has been a year of outstanding growth and operational excellence for Aradel Holdings. Our revenue surged by 162.8% to ₦581.2 billion, primarily driven by a 244.6% increase in export crude oil revenue. This was supported by enhanced production levels, improved utilization of the Trans Niger Pipeline (TNP), and additional value from the Alternative Crude Evacuation (ACE) system.”

“We also successfully completed key strategic acquisitions, including the Olo and Olo West Marginal Fields from the TotalEnergies/NNPC JV, and secured a 5.14% equity stake in Chappal Energies Mauritius Limited. Additionally, Renaissance’s acquisition of Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria (SPDC) marked a significant milestone, further strengthening our asset base.”

“Our successful four-well drilling campaign and listing on the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NGX) on October 14, 2024, reinforce our commitment to long-term value creation for our shareholders.”
