Refinery Price

RefineryPrice.com is a real-time price comparison platform built around one of Nigeria's most consequential commercial developments: the emergence of Dangote Petroleum Refinery as a domestic source of refined petroleum products. The platform gives users direct, up-to-date visibility into pricing for four core products refined at Dangote's 650,000-barrel-per-day facility — Premium Motor Spirit (PMS, petrol), Automotive Gas Oil (AGO, diesel), Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG, cooking gas), and Dual Purpose Kerosene (DPK). Access runs through Gegu Oils LTD, a licensed marketer lifting product from the refinery's gantry and coastal points, positioning RefineryPrice.com as a bridge between the refinery and the marketers, depot operators, bulk buyers, and retail outlets that depend on accurate, current pricing to run their businesses. The platform exists to solve a specific problem in Nigeria's downstream petroleum sector: information lag. For decades, fuel pricing has moved through a fragmented chain — refinery or import terminal, to depot, to marketer, to retail station — with information often traveling by phone calls, WhatsApp broadcasts, and informal depot notices rather than any centralized, verifiable source. Since Dangote Refinery began supplying the domestic market, this problem has intensified, because its own ex-depot and coastal prices have proven remarkably volatile, shifting by tens or even hundreds of naira per litre within days in response to global crude oil swings, foreign exchange movements, and changes in the refinery's own commercial policies, including periods where it has moved between naira-denominated and dollar-denominated sales. A marketer working from yesterday's price can lose real money on a single truckload; consolidated, real-time pricing removes a meaningful amount of that risk. By centering the platform on Dangote specifically, RefineryPrice.com taps into a genuinely new phase of the Nigerian fuel market. Before Dangote Refinery reached full operational capacity, Nigeria imported most of its refined petroleum products, so domestic pump prices were tightly linked to shipping costs, foreign exchange rates, and import logistics timelines. Dangote's emergence as a large-scale domestic refiner has begun to shift that dynamic, with its pricing decisions now setting the tone for depot prices nationwide. That makes its gantry and coastal price sheets among the most-watched data points in the entire downstream sector — and a platform tracking those prices sits at a genuinely useful point in that chain. For marketers and depot operators, the platform's value is operational: knowing the current PMS or AGO price before committing to a truckload lifting can be the difference between a profitable trade and a loss, particularly during the frequent multi-adjustment weeks the refinery has had this past year. For retail station owners, current wholesale pricing informs how quickly and how far to adjust pump prices. For bulk industrial buyers — manufacturers, logistics firms, and power generation operators consuming AGO and LPG at scale — the platform offers a way to track input costs without relying on a single supplier's word. Even everyday consumers watching cooking gas or kerosene prices gain a transparent, centralized reference in a market that has historically lacked one.
