Dangote refinery increases ex-gantry petrol price to N799/litre
The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has increased the ex-gantry price of its premium motor spirit, also known as petrol, to N799 per litre.
The price of the product was increased by N100 from the previous price of N699 per litre which came into effect on December 12, 2025.
In a statement on Tuesday, the refinery said MRS retail outlets will now sell the product at N839 per litre.
“Recall that the Refinery in December announced the nationwide sales of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) at a pump price of N739 per litre across all MRS Oil Nigeria Plc filling stations during the festive period, marking the second consecutive festive season in which the Refinery absorbed significant costs in the national interest, including logistics support in 2024 and a price reduction in 2025 to promote affordability and market calm.
“Under the current alignment, the PMS gantry price is N799 per litre, while MRS retail outlets are selling at N839 per litre,” it said.
According to the statement, the Chief Executive Officer of Dangote Petroleum Refinery, David Bird, stated that the Refinery continues to supply the domestic market with approximately 50 million litres of PMS daily, with nationwide evacuation and distribution operating normally.
He noted that the Refinery’s design flexibility allows it to process a wide range of crude and intermediate feedstocks, enabling continued PMS supply during planned maintenance activities.
According to him, this capability ensures that domestic supply remains stable and uninterrupted.
