In its intensified efforts at protecting critical national infrastructure, NNS BEECROFT patrol team, in collaboration with the Maritime Component of Operation AWATSE, have discovered two punctured points along the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) pipeline.<\/p>\n

The points served as a conduit pipe by saboteurs where they connect hoses and pumping machines to siphon huge quantities of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), conveyed along the pipeline, thereby posing significant threat to the nation’s products availability as well as economic well-being of Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\"\"This was disclosed by the Base Information Officer (BINFO), Nigerian Navy Ship BEECROFT, Sub-Lieutenant Happiness Collins on Thursday in a press statement.<\/p>\n

According to her, the team was led by the Commander NNS BEECROFT, Commodore Kolawole Olumide Oguntuga, who has once again displayed unwavering commitment in eradicating pipeline vandalism by harnessing technology and Human Intelligence (HUMINT) for operational efficiency.<\/p>\n

Sub-Lt Collins further disclosed that at approximately 11:45 am, on 1st November, 2023 between ATLAS COVE and Ijegun in Lagos State, NNS BEECROFT patrol team swiftly responded to credible HUMINT that led to the discovery.<\/p>\n

Adding that, “This innovative approach has proven to be a game-changer, resulting in a remarkable increase in the team’s ability to detect and deter criminal activities along the NNPCL pipeline.<\/p>

“This commendable action by the Naval team not only preserves national infrastructure and availability of petroleum products but also significantly averts outbreak of catastrophic fire with attendant consequences on life and property.<\/p>\n

“Following discovery of these punctured points, the NNPCL has been alerted, and immediate repairs are underway to stall losses. Simultaneously, efforts are ongoing to detect and rectify other potential vulnerabilities along the pipeline, ensuring a comprehensive approach to deter future illicit activities.<\/p>\n

“This discovery, undoubtedly, brings to the fore, that the Nigerian Navy, under the leadership of Vice Admiral Emmanuel Ikechukwu Ogalla, Chief of the Naval Staff, remains steadfast in its commitment to safeguarding Nigeria\u2019s maritime domain and fostering economic prosperity for our beloved nation.<\/p>\n

The Nigerian Navy is proud to be at the forefront of combating pipeline vandalism, ensuring a safer and more prosperous Nigeria.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
