Nigerians consumed less of Dangote Refinery’s petrol daily, according to November 2025 industrial data recently released by the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, NMDPRA.
NMDPRA in their Fact Sheet for November said out of the 52.9 million litres per day of petrol consumed by Nigerians, only 19.5 million litres per day were supplied by Dangote Refinery.
According to NMDPRA, while Dangote Refinery planned a daily petrol supply for November of 35 million litres, the firm was able to evacuate 23.52 million litres in November, up from 17.77 million liters in October.
Although the country’s per-day consumption drops to 52.9 million litres in November from 56.7 million litres recorded in October, the data showed that Nigerians still rely heavily on imported fuel.
The regulator said imports accounted for 52.1 million litres per day of total petrol consumption in November, an increase from 27.6 million litres per day in October.
The data showed that the total petrol supply in Nigeria rose to 71.5 million litres per day in November, up from 46.0 million litres per day the previous month.
DAILY POST reports that retail petrol price stood between N910 and N937 per litre in Abuja after several drops in fuel price by Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited and other filling station outlets.
