- Dangote Refinery To Start Crude Oil Production

The Dangote Group says it has achieved its first oil from its upstream assets and is preparing to begin marketable crude production in the coming weeks.

In an interview with Platts, part of S&P Global Energy, Devakumar Edwin, the vice-president of the Dangote Group, said early testing has commenced on crude from its Niger Delta licences.

According to Edwin, the company has already begun standard well testing and is preparing to scale up output.

“We have opened a well and begun standard testing, which should be completed in the next three to four weeks maximum,” he said.
