Daily Report Nigeria reports that an immediate release of the vessel to continue its operations in line with extant approvals was ordered on Monday morning.

This was revealed by Navy spokesperson, Commodore Ayo-Vaughan.

Revealing its findings on August 5, 2023, the Navy said the product onboard the vessel was HPFO approved by the NMDPRA, and not stolen crude oil.

According to the Navy, the confirmation was made after a laboratory text by all relevant agencies, including the Nigerian Navy, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL), and the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA).
