Global petroleum politics and disputes have profound impacts on Nigeria, its citizens and economy as well as onto Nigeria as being a member of the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). This research focuses on analysing the effects of global petroleum politics and disputes on Nigeria's oil and gas industry and thereafter suggest effective measures that Nigeria could take to minimise them. The main questions asked by this study include, what are the effects of global petroleum politics and disputes on Nigeria's oil and gas industry? Why Nigeria is vulnerable to global oil dynamics? How could Nigeria minimise the impacts of global petroleum politics, dynamics and price crisis? These questions are posted to answer the research objectives, which include, analysing the impacts of global petroleum politics and disputes on Nigeria's oil and gas industry; examining the vulnerability of Nigeria to global oil dynamics and finding out the most cost-effective measures to minimise the effects of global petroleum politics, dynamics and price crisis. The research adopted System Theory by Anatol Rapoport as its major theory, while Conflict Triangle Theory by Johan Galtung as its supporting theory.
