In late 1999, the Federal Government of Nigeria issued new guidelines for the development of proven underdeveloped fields in the country. To achieve this, the Government recovered twenty-nine (29) abandoned and/or under-exploited fields from the major operators in Nigeria and their production rights were re-allocated through farm-in agreements.
As a result, in 2002 the Government offered twenty-four (24) marginal field packages to Nigerian upstream oil companies.
Midwestern was one of more than thirty (30) indigenous upstream entrepreneurs that were awarded these marginal fields.
