      abstract = {Oil facilities are private and state owned assets in the country of study, therefore the study is aim at "Investigating the Water Quality in Proximity to Oil and Gas Facilities in Bonny waterways". This study aimed to assess the water quality near oil and gas facilities in Bonny Island and evaluate potential impacts on the surrounding environment. Bonny Island, located in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria, is known as the oil and gas hub of Nigeria owing to her status in NLNG activities. Understanding the water quality in this area is essential for effective environmental management and safeguarding human health. Water samples were collected from three (3) different locations in proximity to oil and gas facilities along Bonny River in January, February and April, 2024. The collected water samples were tested and compared for possible contaminants. The method of analyzing the data is analysis of variance (ANOVA). The result was compared with regulatory authorities such as World Health Organization (WHO), Federal Ministry of Environment, NSDWQ and DPR.},
