The Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) says the Port Harcourt Refining Company (PHRC) has not commenced bulk sales to the public.
NNPCL Chief Corporate Communications Officer, Olufemi Soneye, disclosed this in a statement on Friday.
According to him, the refinery is also yet to open its purchase portal as it has not concluded essential processes.
He stated that the products the refinery currently sells are from the Dangote Refinery and it include applicable fees by the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA).
“Products from PHRC are exclusively for our retail stores at this stage. Our pricing is reviewed and adjusted periodically as necessary to reflect operational realities,” the statement read.
The company also advised the public to disregard any misleading information regarding pricing and notes that official announcements will be made if and when price reviews occur.
This clarification comes amid public anticipation of the PHRC’s full-scale operations as the company works to streamline its processes.
Earlier, NNPCL clarified that the newly activated Port Harcourt refinery is currently working at 90 per cent capacity, and not 70 per cent as stated by the Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN)
