The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has said that it will export its petrol if the Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited and other oil distributors in the country choose not to patronise it.
On Monday, Devakumar Edwin, the Vice President of Oil and Gas at Dangote Industries Limited, shared this insight while appearing on the live broadcast of the Brekete Family show.
He 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 NNPC are not buying the product, obviously, we will end up exporting the PMS as we are doing with the aviation jet and diesel.”
