The President Of PETROAN, Billy Gillis-Harry, Said They Have Been Asked To Resubmit Their Proposal To Dangote Refinery.

Billy Gillis-Harry the president of PETROAN said that his team was requested to submit their proposal again to obtain petrol from Dangote. He said, “the price can be knocked down to N700/litre; it depends on the volatility of the market and this does not always mean upward prices, it could also mean prices coming down.”

“We have written to them (Dangote) several times and they are fully aware of what PETROAN has been doing. One of the executive directors there called me to say that they are going to set up a meeting with us, so we are waiting for that to happen. Hopefully, we can do that this week.

“We are willing to take products from all of them, NNPC, traders, importers, Dangote refinery, modular refineries, etc. So, we are in that pursuit. We have not received confirmation of the meeting with Dangote yet, but we have been told to resend our request, which we have done.

“And I think that is a positive response compared to before when they were just keeping quiet. So, any moment from now PETROAN members should start lifting products from the Dangote refinery and it is good news for us and everyone.

“The price can be knocked down to N700/litre; it depends on the volatility of the market and this does not always mean upward prices, it could also mean prices coming down.

“If we have massive supply and there is a lot of products in Nigeria, obviously everybody will be looking for just minimal profit. Our business is focused on turnover, so people may cut prices down,” The president of Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria said.
