According to him, the completion of the plants and the addition of supply from the 650,000 barrels per day, bpd Dangote Refinery would enable the nation to meet its domestic fuel demand. “Also, before the end of next year, the Kaduna refinery will come on stream. Also, the production of jet oil, and tolubricant will be produced by mid-next year.

The Chief Operating Officer of the company, Samson Ezugworie, who disclosed this at the ongoing Offshore Technology Conference, OTC, in Houston, Texas, United States, said: “In the past, gas was perceived to be a bad business because all the oil and gas installations did not have a way of harnessing the associated gas from oil production. The associated gas was flayed, thus impacting negatively on the environment.“Now, that has changed in Seplat.

“But because other partners that supply gas into the domestic line were not ready with their gas, we made a conscious decision not to take the three-day shutdown. Doing so would have put Nigeria in total darkness.
