The study analyzes oil and gas companies quoted on the floor of Nigeria stock exchange market, for the period of twelve years ranging from 2006 to 2017. The result of the findings indicated that Debt ratio has a positive and significant relationship with market value of oil and gas companies in Nigeria, a negative but insignificant relationship was found to exist between liquidity ratio and market value and lastly, firm size was found to be positive and statistically significant with firm size and market value of oil and gas companies in Nigeria.it was therefore recommended that Nigerian firms should increase its investment in the procurement of fixed assets which in the long run has effect on its market value. On the other hand, under investments will lead to stockout, illiquidity and bad debt costs. Also efficient management of the debt ratio of a firm can increase its value to the market. The financial manager should also have knowledge of the sources of working capital funds as well as the company ability to meet short term liabilities as at when due.
