Dangote Petroleum Refinery on Tuesday further dropped the ex-depot price per litre of petrol from ₦840 to ₦820.

In an update, a spokesman for the refinery, Mr. Tony Chiejina, confirmed the ₦20 marginal reduction, which occurred about one week after the $20 billion refinery dropped ex-depot petrol price from ₦880 to ₦840 on June 30, 2025.

Chiejina said that the new ex-depot price of ₦820 took effect from Tuesday, 8 July 2025.

Filling stations like MRS Oil & Gas, Ardova Plc, Heyden, and others with special agreements with the Dangote Refinery are expected to reduce their pump price further below ₦880 to reflect the marginal reduction in the ex-depot price of the premium commodity.

On Sunday, 15 June 2025, the Lagos-based refinery announced the free distribution of petrol and diesel to marketers, dealers, and other large users across the country.

The 650,000 barrels-per-day capacity refinery said it has procured 4,000 brand-new Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered tankers for the take-off of the initiative on 15 August 2025.

It also offered 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 a bank guarantee.

Petrol marketers and truck owners have since criticised the expansion moves by Dangote Refinery, saying it would asphyxiate depot owners, truck operators, and retail outlets who have special deals for the direct delivery of petrol and diesel to large corporations and multinationals.
