The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has announced the deployment of 4,000 brand-new Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)-powered tankers to enhance nationwide distribution of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) and diesel effective August 15, 2025.
The moves which is a boost for the company’s distribution chain, would benefit petrol stations, fuel marketers, manufacturers, telecom companies, aviation operators, and other large-scale consumers across Nigeria.
To further support efficient delivery, Dangote said it is investing in CNG booster stations, adding that it has positioned over 100 CNG tankers to ensure smooth and sustainable distribution.
Additionally, the refinery would offer credit facility to bulk buyers. It said customers purchasing a minimum of 500,000 litres can access an additional 500,000 litres on credit for two weeks, backed by a bank guarantee.
According to the refinery, the initiative is expected to cut logistics costs, lower fuel prices, revitalise dormant petrol stations, create jobs, and improve energy access in rural and underserved communities.
The refinery described the rollout as a bold step toward stabilising fuel supply, aligning with the Federal Government’s Naira-for-Crude policy and President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
“This is about inclusive growth and affordability,” the company said. “We are committed to ensuring no community is left behind in access to cleaner, more efficient energy.”
