ABUJA (Reuters) – Nigeria signed a $3.1 billion deal with the local arm of Royal Dutch Shell (RDSa.L: QuoteProfile,Research) on Monday to plug a funding gap in their joint venture projects, the country’s state oil firm NNPC said.

 

 

Under the deal, Shell would cover a $1.3 billion shortfall in NNPC’s share of the 2008 joint venture budget and provide an extra $1.8 billion loan to cover outstanding payments from 2006 and 2007, NNPC said in a statement.
