PH Refinery Yet to Commence Bulk Sales – NNPC
The Port Harcourt Refining Company (PHRC) has not yet commenced bulk sales or opened its purchase portal, as essential processes are still being finalised.
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd.) says an official announcement will be made if and when price reviews on the products occur.
Mr Olufemi Soneye, Chief Corporate Communications Officer, NNPC Ltd. in a statement on Friday, said currently its products being sold were originated from the Dangote Refinery.
The 60,000 barrels per day (bpd) capacity refinery began truck-out of petroleum products on Tuesday in Port Harcourt following its rehabilitation. Some petroleum marketers and Nigerians have raised operational concern about the refinery as regards to pricing.
The Petroleum Products Retail Outlet Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN) also confirmed that the Refinery had not released any new price for products purchase.
The association said that it bought PMS with the old pricing template while awaiting the new prices. “Currently, the products we are selling originate from the Dangote Refinery and include applicable Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) fees,” he said.
“Products from PHRC are exclusively for our retail stores at this stage. Our pricing is reviewed and adjusted periodically as necessary to reflect operational realities.
“We advise the public to disregard any misleading information regarding pricing. Official announcements will be made if and when price reviews occur,”. # PH Refinery Yet to Commence Bulk Sales – NNPC Litigation Claims against Access Holdings Plc Hit N11.3Trn
