refining capacity

Nigeria's government has suspended petrol import licenses for the second consecutive month, enforcing provisions of the Petroleum Industry Act as Dangote Refinery now supplies nearly two-thirds of domestic demand.

TotalEnergies credits Nigeria's Petroleum Industry Act with enabling transparency and foreign investment inflows, while Dangote Petroleum Refinery unveils plans for a 400,000-tonne surfactant plant as part of its transformation into an integrated industrial complex.

Africa's largest refinery has achieved its initial design capacity of 650,000 barrels per day, positioning Nigeria to reduce refined product imports and potentially reshape regional petroleum markets.
