Upstream technical efficiency and its determinants: Evidence from non-parametric and parametric analysis of Nigeria exploration and production (E & P)

The study empirically estimates the relative technical efficiency of Nigeria upstream petroleum industries and its determinants using non-parametric and parametric analysis. The non-parametric analysis’ results reveal that joint venture contract operators, marginal field contract operators, sole ris...
