A proposed gateway for Nigerian crude oil.
A proposed independent storage and lifting pathway from Nigeria to Portugal, subject to feasibility, agreements and approvals.
PORTUDE proposes a pathway in which Nigerian producers could arrange storage in Portugal, maintain traceable inventory records and authorize collection under agreed contracts. PORTUDE is not primarily a purchaser, trader or refinery and is not assumed to acquire title to the crude. International Buyers and Nominated Lifters would have separate entitlement, nomination and release roles where the contracts so provide.
