All Four Nigeria's refineries to begin operation next month.

All of the Nigeria’s four refineries will begin production next month as disclosed by, a spokesman for NNPC,Mr Ohi Alegbe on Thursday.This has raised hope of an end to the ongoing petrol products shortages hammering the Africa’s largest crude producer.

“The refineries at Warri, Port Harcourt and Kaduna will resume next month after a successful turn-around-maintenance (overhaul) of their facilities,” Ohi Alegbe of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) told AFP.

“The turn-around-maintenance has been on for some time. We did not just want to make any noise about it. The refineries will start production as soon as they have delivery of crude oil for refining,” he said.
