Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu said he wants Nigeria to have a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) unit for the production and processing of hydrocarbons, and for the storage of oil in 10 years.

Nigeria's refining system means it is almost wholly reliant on imports for the 40 million litres per day of gasoline it consumes.
