BREAKING: Dangote Refinery reduces fuel price as crude oil price falls

Dangote Refinery has reduced its Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, gantry price as crude oil prices fell further on Monday.

A market survey by DAILY POST showed that the 700,000-barrel-per-day refinery adjusted its fuel price to N1,325 per litre from N1,350.

This means that the mega refinery cut its fuel price by N25 per litre in its latest petrol price reduction.

The development comes as Brent and West Texas Intermediate, WTI, crude prices declined by over 3 per cent to $100.50 and $92.43 per barrel, respectively, at the time of reporting.
