Why Dangote Is Producing Diesel And Aviation Fuel Firstly by Pecoleee345: 1:08pm On Jan 13 |
In as much i would have love to go deeper into discussing dangote group and all the lies told against them over the years , I will just answer the question some ignorant follow are asking why the refinery is producing diesel and aviation fuel first instead of PMS. Most Nigeria companies move there goods with trucks and this truck are diesel powered. Dangote group infact has the highest number of truck moving around everyday. Diesel is more important for production than pms, most companies have diesel powered generator so it make alot of sense to produce that first. Aviation fuel is kerosene, most homes don't use kerosene anymore but our planes need it. The major reason why flights fee when ridiculously high was because of cost of importing aviation fuel, with it now available locally price will likely drop for local flights majorly. I hope you ignorant fellows can understand it makes alot of sense to have diesel first so our companies can come alive and transportation fees of moving goods will reduce once diesel price go down which will automatically impact price of goods. 15 Likes 2 Shares |

You only said your mind which is not even logically sensible. Did Dangote in his speach tell you this is his reason for producing diesel first? Diesel and aviation fuel prices will come down soon, i will be waiting for you to create another thread in few months time to tell us why the prices are still up. You are now Edwin MD of Dangote refinery 45 Likes 2 Shares |

Kaycee9242:Truly the op didn't give a logical reason in his post, but I can still recall a statement from the refinery long time ago where it was stated that diesel and aviation fuel will be the first phase of production, then followed by pms and later fertilizer and plastic products. This had been stated more than a year ago. PrinceofSarcasm:You dey whine me? Have you been living in cave? Why are you people so hypocritical like this? Anyway, here are some links as far back as 2023: https://businessday.ng/news/article/dangote-refinery-to-start-with-diesel-jeta1-in-january/ https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/626932-dangote-refinery-to-begin-operation-in-october-report.html It is specifically stated there that the first phase of production would be diesel and aviation fuel. Then later PMS, and finally fertilizer and plastic products. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Pecoleee345:Rubbish. So Diesel used mainly in industrial generators and some heavy duty trucks or aviation fuel used only by aircraft have more commercial value than petrol? Someone explained it in the other thread that it's simply because in the distillation process itself,engine oil,diesel,kerosene need first be produced before the lighter oils of petrol and gas. It has nothing to do with the rubbish you posted above. 22 Likes 3 Shares |

OP you are wrong, what you posted there was a product of your imagination. With simple fractional distillation of crude oil you can easily get diesel and jet fuel (kerosene).The process is easier that's why Dangote decides to go for these 2 byproducts first. 10 Likes |

Pecoleee345: Please delete this entire post. It recks of ignorance. If you are conversant with the news, it is said that the other unit are not ready yet. Why this so? Crude oil refining goes beyond your normal chemistry in secondary school. Yeah, u were told that when u have crude oil and it's under goes fractional distillation, u get PMS, diesel, kerosene and so on. In the actual sense and in the engineering, the starting unit is the crude distillation unit ( CDU) where the fractional distillation takes place. U get fuel gas, light straight run, heavy straight run, Naphtha both light and heavy, kerosene and so on. The heavy Naphtha can be blended to get PMS but the gasoline (petrol) u get in the CDU is of low grade and not even in commercial quantity. Now the residue (heavy component) from the CDU is called heavy gas oil (HGO) is sent to another unit called the Fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCCU). This unit is an entirely separate unit and this is where gasoline (petrol) is mainly produced is commercial quantity and blended or sweetened in high grade PMS. If this unit is not ready, u are not yet ready to produce PMS. I am taking based on an experienced point of view. So stop saying jargons. 14 Likes 3 Shares |

Re: Why Dangote Is Producing Diesel And Aviation Fuel Firstly by madscientist88(m): 5:23pm On Jan 13 |
the fractional distillation of pms isn't an easy thing to do, doing this is on a whole different level,the last thing dangote want to do is to sell adulterated fuel to nigerians,making quality fuel has also adds to the reason why Nigeria buys pms, refining pms is one extremely delicate process,also here is the politics behind the chemistry how to create the best grade pms ,on international market there are three main categories of pms ,87%,89% snd 90+% quality grades.if dangote refinery lacks the skill or brains to create at least,the 87% quality grade then it could be a market disaster,the trade secret behind getting the right formula is highly protected by each petrol manufacturing company,i think dangote is still experimenting ,but if this isnt the case then i fear their refinery has been diagnosed to be underpowered or not capable of producing pms.petrol market isnt same as agro business.wishing them goodluck 1 Like

He knows why he's not producing petrol cause during petroleum distillation the light products are produced firstly; petrol. Followed by kerosene, jet fuel, diesel |
Re: Why Dangote Is Producing Diesel And Aviation Fuel Firstly by jmoore(m): 5:30pm On Jan 13 |
Pecoleee345:You know nothing about business. Offloading cement from trucks doesn't make you to know anything about business. In the last quarter of 2023, Nigeria spent 1.9 trillion to import petrol, 736 billion on diesel and 135 billion on aviation fuel. https://guardian.ng/business-services/nigeria-spends-n2-7tr-to-import-pms-diesel-in-three-months/ From these stats, you can't say petrol doesn't command a huge market. Once again, hush! You are not Dangote's spokesman and you know nothing about business. 7 Likes |
