Dangote refinery reduces petrol, diesel prices

Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals has reduced the gantry prices of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), fondly called petrol, and Automotive Gas Oil, otherwise known as diesel.

A new pricing template released by Dangote refinery on Tuesday, March 10, 2026, showed that the gantry price of petrol was reduced by N100, dropping from N1,175 to N1,075 per litre.

The refinery also stated that the price of petrol for coastal supply will now be N1,050 per litre. The difference in price reflects additional costs linked to maritime distribution.

The price of diesel was also reduced to N1,430 per litre, down from the previous N1,620 per litre, representing a decrease of N190 per litre.

The refinery noted that these gantry prices do not include regulatory charges from the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA).

Dangote refinery had on Monday increased its gantry petrol price to N1,175 per litre — the third upward adjustment in one week.
