Dangote cuts petrol price by N25 as crude prices ease

Dangote Refinery has lowered its Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) gantry price, reacting to a further drop in crude oil prices on Monday. According to a market survey conducted by DAILY POST, the 700,000-barrel-per-day refinery decreased its fuel price from N1,350 to N1,325 per litre, marking a reduction of N25 per litre. This price reduction is a response to the decline in global crude oil prices, with Brent and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude falling by more than 3% to $100.50 and $92.43 per barrel, respectively.

The latest adjustment in fuel prices is anticipated to exert downward pressure on petrol pump prices across the country. Falling crude oil prices are exerting pressure on refiners and Nigerian refineries to cut petrol pump prices, following a two-week period during which fuel prices had increased as crude oil prices surpassed $104 per barrel.
