The move comes as the refinery broadens its supply options due to continued challenges in securing enough crude locally.

The refinery turned to the UAE to strengthen its feedstock supply and keep production steady.

The decision follows ongoing concerns over the availability of sufficient domestic crude to meet its operational needs.


The two cargoes represent a new sourcing strategy for the refinery, reducing its reliance on Nigerian crude alone.

This is expected to give the plant greater flexibility in maintaining refining activities.


The latest purchase reflects the refinery’s effort to secure stable crude supplies from different markets while addressing local supply shortages that have affected operations.
