Dangote Refinery Starts Free Fuel Delivery, Keeps Price at ₦1,075

Date:

Dangote Petroleum Refinery has started offering free delivery of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) to six key locations across Nigeria, including Abuja, while keeping its ex-depot price at ₦1,075 per litre.

The company announced the move in a notice shared on its official X handle on Wednesday, positioning it as another step in its ongoing petrol price adjustments.

According to Dangote, the free delivery covers Lagos, Ogun, Rivers, Kaduna and Delta states, as well as the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

The offer applies to customers purchasing a minimum of 250,000 litres of petrol, effectively targeting major marketers and bulk buyers in the downstream sector.

The refinery said the new arrangement is expected to reduce logistics costs for qualifying customers in the covered locations.

It comes shortly after Dangote held talks with downstream stakeholders on cost-reflective pricing for petrol, during which marketers backed further reductions in pump prices.

Dangote recently announced its fourth cut in gantry price, lowering the ex-depot rate to ₦1,075 per litre.

Meanwhile, the President of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), Abubakar Maigandi, said retail petrol prices had dropped by about ₦125 per litre over the past three weeks.

He said pump prices now range between ₦1,155 and ₦1,299 per litre, depending on location and the individual marketer.

These developments come amid ongoing changes in Nigeria’s deregulated downstream market and continued debate over how to balance cost, supply security and consumer pricing.
