3.8. Nigerian Content (NC) Requirements

The Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN) in line with its vision for Nigerian Content (NC)
development has enacted the Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Content Development Act
2010 (NOGICD Act).
NNPC/EEPNL requires that Tenderer comply with the NOGICD Act together with the
Schedule thereto and any regulations issued pursuant to the NOGICD Act.
Under the NOGICD Act, the term Nigerian Content is defined as "the quantum of composite
value added to or created in the Nigerian economy by a systematic development of capacity
and capabilities through the deliberate utilization of Nigerian human, material resources and
services in the Nigerian oil and gas industry."
A Nigerian Company is defined as "a company formed and registered in Nigeria in
accordance with the provision of Companies and Allied Matters Act with not less than 51
percent equity shares by Nigerians."
Tenderer shall consider NC as an important element of their overall project development
and management philosophy for project execution (Section 2, NOGICD Act).
As required under the NOGICD Act, each Tenderer shall prepare and submit a detailed NC
plan to COMPANY for approval. Such NC plan shall demonstrate how Tenderer will give
first consideration to Nigerian goods and services.
Tenderer shall also note that in line with Section 104(2) of the NOGICD Act the sum of 1
percent of the CONTRACT PRICE for this service shall be deducted at source and paid

into the Nigerian Content Development Fund established for purposes of funding the
implementation of NC development in the Nigeria oil and gas industry.
COMPANY believes that in successfully achieving the above, the outcome will be reduced
costs and increased availability of some goods and services over time. Furthermore, the
full-cycle, long-term profitability of offshore oil developments will be enhanced by the ability
of current projects to generate benefits for Nigerians and Nigerian businesses.
Upon CONTRACT award, CONTRACTOR failure to comply with the NOGICD Act or
demonstrate commitment to NC development is deemed an offence and liable upon
conviction to a fine of 5 percent of the project sum for each project in which the
offence is committed or cancellation of the project.
CONTRACTOR shall maintain and preserve, and shall cause its lower tiers contractors to
maintain and preserve, accurate documentation and data (including, but not limited to,
written and electronic records books of accounts, correspondences, plans, permits,
licenses, drawings, payroll records, memoranda, receipts, and documentation of related

The BIDDER performing the WORK will be required to meet or exceed COMPANY's
standards for business ethics referenced in the PRINCIPAL DOCUMENT and
EXHIBITS. BIDDER will be required to observe appropriate business standards,
