Pinto’s Model of Project Management theory and the General System Theory were used to underpin the study. The target population for the study was 108 employees of Nile Petroleum Corporation. A sample size of 85 employees was obtained using Coolican Formula. Structured questionnaires were used to collect primary data. Reliability of the tool was determined by testing the coefficient Cronbach’s by use of SPSS Software version 24. The data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics and presented in percentages, mean, standard deviation. The study used inferential statistics to test the hypotheses. The study revealed project integration with p=0.509 did not have a statistically significant influence on project performance of oil firms in South Sudan. Secondly, project execution with p=0.011 showed significantly influence on project performance of oil firms in South Sudan. Finally, project monitoring with p=0.000 showed significantly influence on project performance of oil firms in South.
