As a major crude oil producer, the company says it is poised to contribute about 50 percent to the attainment of this objective. Speaking to Daily Sun in Uyo, the manager, Public Affairs East of Shell Petroleum Development company Mr Bobo Brown, said if Nigeria wants to produce four million barrels a day his company would need to increase its production to Two millions barrels. "By four million barrels a day by 2010, we are really behind many of the major producers. I am sure you know that Iraq has the capacity for six million barrels of oil per day. Right now they are doing about two million. That is 30 percent of their production capacity. You would see the gap and know that this country has a lot of catching up to do", he said. On his trip to Akwa Ibom State, Mr. Bobo Brown said that the State is a major stakeholder in Shell’s business. He said Shell’s management team would be coming to brief the government of Akwa Ibom State on the Company’s plan for the future tagged: ‘securing our future’. "What are those things we are going to do to help Shell help Nigeria to deliver our National aspirations. In addition it means we have to modify some of the ways we do things. "The other thing we will be sharing with the State government is part of our work performance to make sure that our various fields here are better taken care of in the days ahead. "I am sure you know in Akwa Ibom State, we have a number of fields that we are not producing now. Some of them we are doing something, in others we are not producing. It is important that we have a work programme that makes sure that those fields are in good condition. We will continue to monitor them to ensure there is no danger to the environment to human beings and property. "One of such fields is the one in Uruan Local Government which has been a point of concern for the development of Akwa Ibom State’, the manager Public Affairs said.         HOME | ABOUT THE SUN | SPORTS | POLITICS | NEWS | COLUMNISTS | CONTACT US I ADVERT RATE © 2004 THE SUN PUBLISHING LTD.
