Dangote Petroleum Refinery

Dangote Petroleum Refinery is a prominent oil refinery located in Nigeria, owned by billionaire industrialist Aliko Dangote. It is the largest refinery in Africa, with a planned capacity to process 650,000 barrels of crude oil per day. The refinery has been pivotal in Nigeria's efforts to reduce dependence on imported petroleum products and aims to meet domestic demand while also exporting surplus. Recently, it made headlines for importing crude oil from Libya for the first time, highlighting its strategy to diversify sources of feedstock amid local supply shortages.
