The Nigerian Navy has recorded another operational breakthrough in its renewed offensive against crude oil theft, intercepting stolen petroleum products at the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) facility in Calabar, Cross River State.
The operation, conducted under the Navy’s ongoing security initiative, Operation Delta Sentinel, led to the recovery of thousands of litres of illegally siphoned petroleum products suspected to have been stolen from vessels berthed at the port.
Naval authorities disclosed that the interception followed credible intelligence indicating that some individuals were clandestinely siphoning petroleum products from ships docked within the port area.
Acting swiftly on the tip-off, personnel of the Nigerian Navy Ship (NNS) Victory were deployed to the location, launching a targeted patrol around the Nigerian Ports Authority operational zone in Calabar. See More/Details
