President Muhammadu Buhari will flag off the validation phase of the first integrated Oil Development project in northern Nigeria on Tuesday.
The event will take place at the Kolmani OPLs 809 and 810 exploration sites in a border community between Bauchi and Gombe states.
In February 2019, Buhari flagged off the landmark spud-in ceremony of Kolmani River II Well.
By October 2019, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited announced the discovery of crude oil, gas and condensate in the Kolmani River region at the border community between Bauchi and Gombe states.
The commercial quantity discovery was the first in the region after eight months of crude oil exploration on the Upper Benue Trough, Gongola Basin in the north-eastern part of the country, according to NNPC.
