The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) has tendered an apology to users facing difficulty accessing its Oil and Gas Industry Service Permit (OGISP) portal.
In a statement on Tuesday, the commission noted that the downtime was caused by the ongoing upgrade of the Commission Electronic Licensing & Permit System (CELPS) which began on November 6, 2026.
It explained further that the upgrade is being undertaken to improve user experience, enhance security and overall turnaround time.
The Commission added that it is working assiduously to complete the migration within the shortest possible time and ensure that the site is running smoothly within the next 24 hours.
