The Port Harcourt Refinery has officially commenced crude oil processing after years of rehabilitation efforts. This development marks a significant step toward boosting local refining capacity and reducing Nigeria’s dependency on imported petroleum products. The plant’s operations are expected to improve the availability of refined products, reduce fuel costs, and support the nation’s energy security.
The project aligns with the government’s broader objectives to revitalize domestic refineries and enhance the economy. Stakeholders believe this milestone will create jobs and ensure steady fuel supply.
