The Dangote Oil Refinery, set to be the world’s largest vertically integrated petrochemical complex, will boast an impressive capacity of 540,000 barrels of Nigerian oil per day in its first phase of operation, with plans to expand to 650,000 barrels per day in the future.
The complex will also produce 4 million metric tonnes of jet fuel per day, 65 million liters of premium motor spirits (petrol), 15 million liters of diesel, and 3 billion standard cubic feet of gas.
The anticipated launch of the refinery is poised to not only fulfill Nigeria’s entire demand for refined products but also generate a surplus for export, thereby establishing a market worth $11 billion annually for Nigerian petroleum products.
The $19-billion petrochemical complex is a strategic move by Dangote and the Nigerian government to strengthen the country’s downstream industry and become a net exporter of refined petroleum products and petrochemicals by 2026.
