Dangote Petroleum Refinery has announced the commencement of the nationwide distribution of petrol and diesel in the country.
Effective August 15, 2025, Dangote refinery will begin the distribution of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), otherwise known as petrol, and diesel to marketers, petrol dealers, manufacturers, telecoms firms, aviation, and other large users across the country, with free logistics to boost distribution network.
Dangote refinery announced this in a statement issued on Sunday, June 15.
The refinery stated that it has invested in the procurement of 4,000 brand-new Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered tankers to ensure smooth take-off of the scheme.
It noted that this phase of the programme will continue over an extended timeframe.
The refinery said it is also investing in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) stations, commonly referred to as daughter booster stations, supported by a fleet of over 100 CNG tankers across the country to ensure seamless product distribution.
Dangote refinery said: “This strategic programme is part of our broader commitment to eliminating logistics costs, enhancing energy efficiency, promoting sustainability and supporting Nigeria’s economic development.

“It affirms our dedication to improving the availability and affordability of fuel, in support of broader efforts to strengthen the economy and improve the well-being of all Nigerians.
“Under this initiative, all petrol stations purchasing PMS and diesel from the Dangote Petroleum Refinery will benefit from this enhanced logistics support.
“Key sectors such as manufacturing, telecommunications, and others will also gain from this transformative initiative, as reduced fuel costs will contribute to lower production costs, reduced inflation, and foster economic growth. Players in these key sectors and others can purchase directly from the Dangote Petroleum Refinery.”
The refinery noted that it will also offer a credit facility to those purchasing a minimum of 500,000 litres – allowing them to obtain an additional 500,000 litres on credit for two weeks, under bank guarantee.
Dangote refinery added: “This pioneering effort marks a major milestone in our vision to revolutionise Nigeria’s energy sector.
“Dangote Refinery is dedicated to ensuring that no place is left behind. Our goal is to provide equitable access to affordable fuel for all Nigerians, regardless of location, making energy more accessible and sustainable for everyone, wherever they may be.”
