nairalanda1: A constant comment I see here is that 'Dangote is supposed to benefit NIgerians'...lol
Here is a harsh truth. Businessmen and women and children are not into business to HELP YOU AND ME. They are in business to help themselves, their shareholders, themselves, and maybe their workers (and most of the time, they forget to help their workers , which is why we have unions).
At the end of the day, Dangote is going to sell fuel at a profit. Sorry Nigerians, but expect fuel to be above N1000 per liter. The truth is, had we removed subsidy in 1993, or even 2011, which was our last chance really (but too many people were chanting cheap fuel, including our president...now Karma has come back to bite them)...we would have had 8 refineries , many more modular refineries, and maybe we would have had fuel for at least N300 per liter by now...and maybe we would be a major exporter of fuel
If a business man or woman or child does not make a profit, things will collapse. Because profits have to be made to keep the refinery running well. GOvernment is not going to step in and give Dangote money (except in the form of a production subsidy which won't do much).
Honestly, Nigerians, wake up. Socialisim works when you have the cash. One reason why I support subsidy removal is so that we earn so much money overall, we can afford to help the poor masses by raising enough revenue via taxation. (and we hopefully would have gotten rid of PDPAPC then, but I'm not holding my breath). You raised good points but i think dy are only valid on paper 8 refineries ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) . With the rogues we've always voted? Come off it.. Nigerians wont mind if the money gotten are utilised properly but trust me, it will always be looted. Since the subsidy regime now. Where the money ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) |

TimeManager: Can we try and be reasonable for once, everything shouldn't go by wailing and all that. What's our production per month?, we currently on 1.7mbp, do you expect we offload all our production to Dangote without selling abroad to earn FX?. Dangote and other refineries coming up would have to source crude from various buyers to augument the supply from NNPCL. Dangote refinery requires 6million feedstock of crude oil to start production. NNPCL does not have 6million supplies to give Dangote.

without selling abroad to earn FX he said. ![grin](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/grin.png) or is it the one they ve sold, even 10 years in advance |

I see dangote as a person who had always feasted on the loopholes in the Nigerian society. He had probably want to be taking oil free or boycotting normal payment to Nigeria for his own personal wealth and business. But behold he met president Tinubu a shrewd auditor who understands all the processes. Today Tinubu announced that selling of oil is now with the CBN and NNPC is just to product and now Dangote is saying he is going elsewhere for his oil. What this tells me is that dangote feels he should be worshipped and want to hold Nigeria by the jugular by blackmailing or boycotting Nigeria oil. All this administration should do is ensure the portharcourt refinery and others including the one by BUA comes on board quickly. This will remove monopoly which dangote crave for.

Where's the Port Harcourt refinery that the cocaine sniffing thug promised was gonna start running in December Last year. Well, all I see is the marketing strategy and business bounding with other world class organizations. It will be suicide for a world class refinery to depend only on Nigerian crude. What happens when avengers strike again in future and blows all the pipeline? Meaning Dangote will fold up? Companies source Thier raw materials anywhere. This is just for Dangote to have another excuses for Nigerian why his fuel prices locally can't go back to #180 per liter. Also, Nigeria crude was solid in dollars to him and like others. But wait, I think the difference btw Nigerian crude and US crude purchase is cost of transportation, the prices are regulated by opec. |

10mobile: Hmmm! I've always seen selling crude as bad economic practice by helpless countries that can't refine or with low refining capacity. That's because no amount seems justifiable for the numerous crude by-products sold away. So, I'm surprised US also sells crude.
No no no, not true. Even if it's only the employment that the refinery would provide, it's an advantage. No one should think that Dang's refinery is an economic magic wand that will suddenly wave off all our economic woes. But it's certainly not a disadvantage.
After all, we're already import-dependent. So, importing crude isn't what will put more pressure on the Naira. Rather, when we refine in Nigeria, we have all the by-products for local use and re-export which would help us recover any loss in forex due to import.
The situation in Nigeria is really bad. But it's certainly not all bad. Of course, it's never all bad anywhere. As we keep the government on its toes, let's also try to see the silver linings for the sake of our sanity as a people. Thanks.

Mali, Burkina faso and one other country just left ecowas, under tinubu watch. Tinubu is the worst decision, ever made by some nigerians out of bigotry.
Dangote definitely would but these crude, in dollars, and sell them in naira, and the exchange rate now is 1,500naira to 1 dollar. How do a common man survive. When buhari left, a dollar was 850. This is just 9months under tinubu, and it's times 2. Prices of basic things, sma gold is now 12000 for just a tin o! Are there no alternatives?

Topman7: Nothing strange. They have the capacity to refine and supply beyond the Nigerian market, so they will be happy to take on foreign oil to keep their refinery in production.
This is a private-sector business.
Dem no send anybody.
Majority of Nigerian Crude is Bonny Light and usually used to blend other heavier crude in refineries - part of the reason our existing NNPC refineries have been failing consistently.
Also, a large portion of our crude have been presold in forward contracts, making it difficult to satisfy the volume required for continuous running of the 650,000 bpd Dangote refinery. They received 1milluon barrels per week in the last 8weeks, compared to the 650k bpd capacity - so do the math.
Finally. Nigerians major need at this time is PMS, while Dangote is focused on AGO and Jet A1, so the Modular Refineries and possibly the PH refinery will get priority supply!

Interestingly, global refining capacity billed to be added between 2023 and 2027 is north of 10 million barrels per day. Dangote's refinery will eat up only 600K. In effect, Dangote can import crude oil from foreign sources and sell refined products to foreign sources with zero care in the world for Nigeria's energy needs.
He does not need the Nigerian market. He does not need the CBN anymore.
-Lord Nigeria is closer to Europe than India, where the continent buys crude oil. Although, Indian refined oil is cheaper because of discounts by Russia, but logistics costs, especially as a result of the Suez Canal, should make it quite costlier than Dangote's. As you said, he has no obligation to sell to Nigerians. Even if he did or he does, the price will be at global rates. Dangote is going to be stupendously wealthy in the next decade. No one in Africa will unseat him as the richest individual. The subsidy ought to have gone since 2012, but intellectwats who campaigned and voted for Buhari, including Tinubu, fought against it.

Perhaps Nigeria government pressure. The way British pirates set up World Trade, starting circa 1650, lay the foundation for the exclusion of Africa from any influence in international trade since the advent of modernity. The reason, perhaps, why a nation like Nigeria only exported fuel and bought refind products from the West was due to the requirements of international Balance of Trade.
