At a recent meeting at the International Monetary Fund in Washington, it was disclosed that Dangote’s refinery will reduce imports to the country by 40% for petroleum and other commodities. The refinery is designed to produce 650,000 barrels of oil per day, which would significantly reduce the country’s demand for imported oil. Dangote had expressed that with 650,000 barrels a day, it is hoped that by the end of the year the need for the imported oils can be highly reduced. Generating more locally than ever before.
