PETROAN and Dangote Refinery Team Up to Improve Gas and Fuel Distribution
The Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN) has emphasized the importance of issuing gas distribution licenses to petroleum marketers as a key step in reshaping Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.
In a statement released on Tuesday, PETROAN’s spokesperson, Joseph Obele, mentioned the significance of the move. The National Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) had granted these licenses to oil marketers on the same day.
PETROAN further explained that these licenses were crucial to ensuring the success of Nigeria’s gas expansion plans, which are part of the broader vision of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
The statement outlined that licensees were expected to use their new authorization to contribute to the nationwide distribution of gas, with the goal of covering all 774 local government areas across the country.
In another important development, PETROAN also announced a strategic partnership with Dangote Refinery and MRS, aimed at enhancing the distribution of petroleum products across the nation.
This collaboration is set to provide Nigerians with more value for their money when purchasing Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), while also addressing price disparities by factoring in transportation costs.
