Dangote announces arrival of 400 more equipment units for Sh2.2tn Lamu refinery
Dangote said the additional equipment would support the development of the planned refinery as the project moves into the construction phase.
Dangote Group's Nigerian billionaire founder Aliko Dangote has revealed plans to install an additional 400 equipment units over the next 60 days as the Sh2.2 trillion Lamu refinery project progresses. This announcement comes as construction begins on the East Africa Oil Refinery and the port of Lamu prepares to handle more specialized cargo.
Earlier this week, a vessel delivered 2,930 metric tonnes of heavy construction machinery to the refinery, marking an early milestone. The planned facility, which will process up to 700,000 barrels of crude oil daily, is set to generate over 60,000 jobs at its peak and stimulate the broader economy through related industries.
