REFINERY UTILIZATION / PERFORMANCE.
• Basic Objective:- To refine crude oil to meet local
•
•
•
•
•
•
demand and export the excess.
Pre-199, recorded above average capacity
utilization
Post 1997, poor capacity utilization - between
22.29% and 49% for period 1997 – 2002
High ratio of imported fuels
Currently supply about 25% of the 30 million
litres of PMS daily local consumption
Most of the refined gasoline is leaded
Low capacity utilization caused by: poor funding,
equipment obsolescence, inadequate maintenance
and poor management

CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS
• Privatisation of Refinery Industry
• License already issued to some prospective private
refinery investors
• Existing state-owned refineries already slated for
privatisation through the nation’s Bureau for
Public Enterprises
• Government, through the Bureau for Public
Enterprises (BPE) under a leading adviser, Credit
Sussie First Boston, New York, has offered for
sale 51% of each of the refineries’ shares to core
investors, while the remaining 49% shares will be
sold to the Nigerian public and refinery staff
CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS Cont’d.
• Refurbishment of existing state-owned refineries
to boost capacity utilization to 60% of local fuel
demand latest June, 2004 before their final
privatisation
• One of the licensed private refinery investors, we
learnt, has begun construction process
CONCLUSION
Sector reform in the Refinery Industry is:
• To encourage private initiative, investment,
ownership and management
• To ensure sustainable efficiency and deepened
growth in the downstream sector of the industry
• To foster human capital development and
competency
• To ensure global competitiveness through
technological advancement and proficient
management
• To dismantle the state initiated monopoly via
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation and
open up the space for healthy local competition
CONCLUSION Cont’d.
• Government involvement in the refinery industry
and downstream sector of the oil industry
generally, is expected to be limited to policy
formulation and fiscal matters
• Non-discriminatory / open process to state-owned
facilities and infrastructures I.e. pipeline network
system, strategic storage depots before their
privatisation is expected
• Open access to local crude oil / crude oil
importation for refinning is also expected
• On going developments in the Retail Marketing
Sector of the downstream industry.
CONCLUSION Cont’d
• Government’s resolve to privatise and deregulate
the downstream sector of the oil and gas industry
could be the needed elixir for harnessing and
exploiting the vast potentials of this great nation
with with ever expanding markets.
• Attainment of sustainable efficiency will, no
doubt, infect other sectors positively for as long as
petroleum products remain relevant to industrial
and economic growth.
Thank you.
