Dangote Refinery Resumes Petrol Sale In Naira After Committee’s Intervention

Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals FZE has announced the immediate resumption of petrol (Premium Motor Spirit) sales in Naira. This follows the intervention of the chairman of the Naira for Crude Technical Committee.

Customers can now place orders and make payments in Naira for both self-collection and free delivery of petrol at previously specified locations nationwide. In a message to its customers, sighted by LEADERSHIP on Saturday, the refinery stated that customers can now place orders and make payments in Naira for both self-collection and free delivery of petrol at previously specified locations nationwide.

Recall that the refinery had earlier suspended petrol sales in Naira amid ongoing challenges related to foreign exchange and crude oil pricing mechanisms. The intervention by the technical committee, formed to facilitate the use of the Nigerian currency in crude purchases and downstream petroleum product transactions, has helped bridge the gaps between the refinery and its customers.

The message from the Group Commercial Operations reads: “Dear Valued Customer, Following the intervention of the Naira for Crude Technical Committee chairman, we are pleased to inform you of the resumption of PMS sales in Naira, commencing immediately. You may kindly proceed to place your orders in Naira for both self-collection and free delivery of PMS to the earlier advised locations across the country.”
