Dangote Refinery failed to meet up with its planned domestic supply of 50 million liters of day fuel in Nigeria.
The Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, NMDPRA, disclosed this in its latest FACT Sheet released on Thursday.
According to the data from the regulator, the $20 billion refinery supplied 32.01 million liters less of the 50 ml/d it planned to supply to the local market in December 2025.
This means that the refinery’s own domestic petrol supply target in the period under review fell short by 17.9 million liters per day.
Meanwhile, Dangote Refinery ramped up its supply on a month-to-month basis by 64.4 percent to 32.01 million liters per day in December, up from 19.47 ml/d.
NMDPRA data showed that supply to the domestic market in December rose significantly to 74.2 ml/d total domestic supply of petrol in December, up from 71.5 ml/d the previous month.
Also, the country’s total fuel consumption increased to 63.7 million liters per day in December, up from 52.9 ml/d amid lower fuel prices.
Recently, Managing Director of Dangote Refinery, David Bird, said the refinery achieved a 50 million liters per day domestic fuel supply in December.
