We’ll Export Our Petrol If You Fail To Patronize Us – Dangote Refinery Warns NNPCL, Marketers 

The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has vowed to ship its petroleum products to other countries if the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL and other oil marketers in the country fail to patronise it.

The Vice President of Oil and Gas at Dangote Industries Limited, Devakumar Edwin, made this known during an appearance on the live broadcast of the Brekete Family Show on Monday.

DAILY POST reports that the President of Dangote Refinery, Aliko Dangote, on Tuesday announced the rollout of Petrol from the 650,000 barrels per day refinery.

He had in an earlier report said that the Premium Motor Spirit (Petrol) from the refinery will be available in the Nigerian market in 48 hours depending on the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL.

Edwin said, “We have been exporting aviation fuel, we have been producing kerosene, we have been producing diesel, but yesterday, we started the production of PMS.

“So, that was the last stage. The only thing now left out is petrochemicals.

“So, the good news for the country is we have started producing PMS from our refinery since yesterday (Sunday).

“Well, I explained how there has been a kind of a blockade from lifting our products within the country. The traders have been trying to block (it), and so now we have been exporting our petroleum products. PMS, we are ready to pump in as much as possible to the country.

“But if the traders or NNPCL are not buying the product, obviously, we will end up exporting the PMS as we are doing with the aviation jet and diesel.
