Nigerian Dangote Petroleum Refinery Set for Commission

REFINING

Nigeria will commission its Dangote Petroleum Refinery today with the aim of ending its long-term domestic fuel shortages.

  • At full production, the refinery is designed to process 650,000 bpd of crude.
  • Dangote expects to begin refining crude in June but Energy Aspects said commissioning was an intricate process and expects operations to start later this year, reaching 50-70% next year, with a staggered process of other units into 2025.
  • The refinery faces crude supply concerns to achieve its desired production levels, especially with domestic production levels consistently slipping.
  • Energy Aspects said in the long run the Dangote refinery could end Nigeria's gasoline deficit, reshape the Atlantic basin gasoline market and export diesel that meets European Union specifications.
