New Report on Dangote Refinery’s Diesel Quality Expected On Monday
The Nigerian Government has announced that a new report regarding the sulfur content in diesel produced by the Dangote Refinery will be released on Monday.
This update comes after a recent dispute between the refinery’s owner, Aliko Dangote, and Farouk Ahmed, the Chief Executive Officer of the Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA).
George Ene-Ita, a spokesperson for NMDPRA, stated that the regulatory body has a team of approximately 15 engineers and scientists working directly within the Dangote Refinery.
He emphasized that the upcoming report will provide a comprehensive analysis of the diesel’s sulfur content. Ene-Ita also highlighted that NMDPRA has fulfilled its regulatory duties and is not interested in engaging in public disputes with the refinery.
Last week, Ahmed had claimed that the Dangote Refinery was not yet authorized to operate and criticized the quality of its petroleum products.
He noted that the sulfur content of products from Dangote Refinery, along with other smaller modular refineries such as Watersmith and Aradel, ranged between 650 and 1,200 parts per million (PPM), which he argued was inferior compared to imported petroleum products.
In response, Dangote refuted Ahmed’s claims, asserting that the refinery’s products were of high quality. He called for an independent assessment to verify the quality of their products.
Dangote criticized the current testing procedures, suggesting that the results of imported products might be manipulated and that independent testing would reveal different outcomes.
This statement was made during a tour of the Dangote Refinery with Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbass, and other senior lawmakers.
Dangote Refinery has announced a fresh reduction in the price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), commonly known as petrol.
The company, which is one of Nigeria’s leading oil producers, announced in a statement shared by its spokesperson, Anthony Chiejina, on its official X account on Thursday.
Effective immediately, Dangote Refinery has lowered the ex-depot price of petrol to N899.50 per litre, down from the previous rate of N970.
In his statement, Chiejina mentioned the company’s commitment to helping alleviate the financial burden on consumers during the holidays.
“We have now announced a new price of N899.50 per litre.
This reduction is designed to ease transport costs during the festive period,” he said.
“To alleviate transport costs during this holiday season, Dangote Refinery is offering a holiday discount on PMS.
From today, our petrol will be available at N899.50 per litre at our truck loading gantry or SPM.”
In addition to the price reduction, Dangote Refinery has introduced a new incentive to make fuel more accessible for consumers.
Chiejina explained that for every litre of petrol purchased on a cash basis, buyers will have the opportunity to acquire an additional litre on credit.
This offer is backed by a bank guarantee from Access Bank, First Bank, or Zenith Bank, providing customers with more flexible payment options.
