Dangote Refinery

LAGOS — Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals has reduced the gantry price of Automotive Gas Oil, AGO, also known as diesel, by N200 per litre, amid reports that petroleum marketers have begun receiving fresh imported shipments.

The latest adjustment brings the ex-depot price of diesel down from N1,800 per litre to N1,600 per litre.

Industry sources said the refinery implemented the new pricing on May 26, a move many operators believe reflects increasing competition within the downstream petroleum sector.
