The Dangote Refinery has expanded its fuel distribution network with the addition of 15 new filling station partners. This move is part of its plan to commence large-scale fuel distribution across Nigeria in August 2025.

In a statement released on Tuesday, the refinery named new partners including TotalEnergies, Garima Petroleum, Sunbeth Energies, Sobax Nigeria Limited, Virging Forest Energy, Sixxco Oil Ltd., NU Synergy, and Soroman Limited. Other new additions are Jezco Oil Nigeria Ltd., Jengre, Cocean, Kifayat, Triumph Golden, Sifem Global, Riquest, and Mamu Oil.

These companies join the refinery’s initial distribution partners such as MRS, AP, Heyden, Hyde, Techno Oil, Optima, and others, in making Dangote fuel accessible across Nigeria.

The development aligns with the refinery’s strategy to deepen market reach and ensure affordable and consistent fuel supply nationwide. On June 30, 2025, the refinery reduced its ex-depot price of petrol from ₦880 to ₦840 per litre. However, the price adjustment has yet to be reflected at the pump by some marketers, who say they must first deplete existing stock bought at the higher rate.

To support its distribution effort, the refinery has acquired 4,000 compressed natural gas (CNG)-powered trucks valued at ₦720 billion. This initiative is projected to save over ₦1.7 billion annually in energy costs for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) while improving fuel availability across Nigeria.

According to the company, the investment will eliminate transportation costs for fuel marketers and large-scale consumers, lowering overall fuel prices at filling stations and boosting efficiency in the energy supply chain.
