Nigeria’s modular refineries supplied an average of 2.37 per cent of the country’s diesel demand over the three months spanning November 2025 to January 2026, according to data compiled from the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority’s (NMDPRA’s) monthly fact sheets.
According to the data, only three modular facilities—Waltersmith, Edo Refinery, and Aradel—were operational during this timeframe, while OPAC and Duport remained shut down throughout.
Their combined average daily AGO supply stood at approximately 393,000 litres per day across the period, drawn from varying monthly outputs: 489,000 litres per day in November 2025, 392,000 litres per day in December 2025, and 297,000 litres per day in January 2026.
This low contribution contrasted with national diesel consumption trends, which averaged around 17.0 million litres per day based on actual truck-out volumes into the domestic market.
Monthly breakdowns showed consumption at 15.4 million litres per day in November, 16.4 million litres per day in December, and 19.2 million litres per day in January.
