The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has given an update on the Port Harcourt Refinery, says only the regulatory and compliance tests are yet to be completed
Contacted Tuesday by Daily Trust, the NNPCL Chief Corporate Communications Officer, Olufemi Soneye said regulatory and compliance tests were the only reason keeping the Port Harcourt refinery from commencing full operations.
He said: “The Port Harcourt refinery has received crude oil, and it has been stocked in the facility. All crude lines are currently active. Regulatory and compliance tests are underway as we speak, and once they are completed, the refinery will commence operations. This adherence to best practices is recognised worldwide.”
On February 12th, 2024, Shell completed the supply of 475,000 barrels of crude oil to the Port Harcourt Refinery from the Bonny Oil and Gas Terminal, a joint venture asset operated by SPDC.
