Dangote Industries Limited stated that it never claimed that the Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) was depriving its refinery of crude oil.
Contrary to reports that the Dangote Refinery backed down from its accusations that the NNPCL was not delivering it with crude oil, the company stated in a statement on Thursday that its worry has always been NUPRC’s unwillingness to enforce the domestic crude supply commitment.
The statement by the Group Chief Branding & Communications Officer Anthony Chiejina according to Channels TV read,
Six of the fifteen shipments that the refinery needed in September, he claims, were sent to the NNPCL.
TimesNow.com.ng reported that Dangote Industries Limited has reiterated that production of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), commonly known as petrol, will commence at the Dangote refinery in July 2024.
Devakumar Edwin, vice president of Oil and Gas at Dangote Industries Limited, stated this during a visit by the S&P Global team to the Dangote Refinery in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos.
Earlier, TimesNow.com.ng reported that Dangote refinery set July 10â15, 2024, as the dates for supplying petrol products to the Nigerian market.
