The boss nko? the real petroleum minister? If the junior minister is incompetent, what about the senior petroleum minister?

How much do they lose under PDP 16 years because i know they never worked in all those years...

Wait is it buhari that told niger delta militants to vandalise the pipeline.. we didn't vote for buhari yet he won and now we have started complaining... If he ever show mercy to us it means he is good man cos it was clear we didn't want him

How the f*ck did refineries that didn't generate money lose this much. 231Billion that's like more than what Osun state got for 4 years.

The kind of corruption going on in the Oil and Gas industry is legendary

The nation’s refineries suffered huge losses in the first four years of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration as they were left in a state of disrepair, ’FEMI ASU writes

Federal Government-owned refineries, located in Port Harcourt, Kaduna and Warri, lost over N231bn in the last four years as the proposed rehabilitation of the plants suffered a setback.

The Port Harcourt Refining Company has two refineries, while the Warri Refining and Petrochemical Company and the Kaduna Refining and Petrochemical Company have one each.

The refineries lost N34.57bn from June to December 2015; N8.64bn in 2016 (data for January to August showed); N47.19bn in 2017, and N132.51bn in 2018, according to the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation.

When President Muhammadu Buhari assumed office on May 29, 2015, all the refineries were not processing crude oil, with Port Harcourt refinery sitting idle since January of that year while Warri and Kaduna stopped refining in February of the same year, according to available data from the NNPC.

In 2015, Port Harcourt, Kaduna and Warri refineries were idle for eight months, seven months and nine months, respectively, losing N10.05bn, N36.03bn and N21.39bn.

Warri refinery was idle for five months in 2016; KRPC did not refine crude for six months, and PHRC was only idle in September.

In 2017, Kaduna, Warri and Port Harcourt refineries were idle for six, five and two months, respectively, losing N32.61bn, N22.14bn and N11.51bn.

Kaduna refinery did not process crude oil for 11 months in 2018, while Port Harcourt and Warri were idle for seven and three months respectively, losing N31bn, N59.96bn and N41.71bn.

According to the latest data from the NNPC, Kaduna and Port Harcourt refineries remained idle in January this year.

The refineries have a combined installed capacity of 445,000 barrels per day but have continued to operate far below the installed capacity for many years.

The NNPC had planned to rehabilitate the refineries in order to attain a minimum of 90 per cent capacity utilisation, using third-party financiers and the original refinery builders to provide the requisite funding and technical support.

The corporation, its transaction advisers and an inter-ministerial team on refineries rehabilitation, were said to have reviewed expressions of interest from 28 potential financiers.

But after over one and half years, the negotiations with financiers stalled in December 2018 due to varying positions on key commercial terms.


The NNPC said it had abandoned the strategy of seeking offshore funding due to ‘onerous conditions’ demanded by the proposed financiers.

It said it had to resort to immediate direct funding from internal cash flows and debt financing from the financial markets for the rehabilitation project.

On March 21, 2019, the corporation announced the commencement of the first phase of the rehabilitation of the 210,000 bpd capacity Port Harcourt Refinery complex, comprising the 60,000 bpd old refinery built in 1965 and the 150,000bpd new refinery inaugurated in 1989.

It said the project would be executed by Milan-based Maire Tecnimont S.p.A, in collaboration with its Nigerian affiliate, Tecnimont Nigeria.

The Group Managing Director, NNPC, Dr Maikanti Baru, was quoted as saying that at the end of phase 1, the refinery complex should be able to reach 60 per cent capacity utilisation.

The national oil firm said the first phase of the rehabilitation contract, which would run for six months, would involve detailed integrity check and equipment inspection of the Port Harcourt refinery complex beginning from the end of March 2019.

Huge mental.

They transport crude oil to the north codedly in preparation for the fall out and they tell us refineries were redundant for 3months, 5months, 7months etc. They have opened Kaduna dry port also, the list goes on and on like that. He who has ears, let him/her hear, it is coming, be PREPARED.

You won't find kabiru here. You will never see Fatai or MufutausAfonja,or Tajudeen commenting,Lai lai..Mumini, Akanni,Lateef will pretend not to see this thread.
They even claim it's fake news.

But mention GEJ or Pej or Stella Oduah or Iweala now,AHHHHHHHHHHH, somebody don tiff their ewedu be dat

Buhari is a calamity to nigeria

Buhari Badluck!

I don't know how they expect a man whose brain his locked to do anything meaningful.

Turning around the refineries doesn't need space brain but this criminals will always find a way to steal at the detriment of the larger society.

God Airpuss!

Basically, the refinereis are losing because...subsidy.

1.First, it is sad that the government did not spend money repairing the refinereis. Even taking a loan...no problem. (Then again, the issue was disagreements over the fine details, but still).

2.Having said that the problem is SUBSIDY. Subsidy, in my opinion, prevents NNPC from making a sufficient proft to be able to afford to repair the refienreis completely (or even build new ones , because that means they would be running them at a loss.).

3.Let's privatise NNPC, privatise the refinereis, remove subsidy, and see investment flow in to repair the refienreis, build new ones, stimulate eventual economic growth, and jobs. Easy way of reviving the economy for APC.

But as someone told me elsehwere...no Nigerian government is going to risk cheap petrol...even for the obvious benefits. The riots that happened under GEJ would be child's play compared to what would happen under full removal of subsidy.

But we have to do it.. Oil revenues are not high enough for us to sustain subsidy. And we are still struggling to fight corruption.

Mr Zombie, you sound as dumb as your president

Juliusmalema:
Those things called refineries are just tacti method of sending unquantifiable and high amount of crude to North through pipelines.

Don't ask me how, I was once there.

your pant's on fire - liar

Those refineries have not been working long before 2015, and the government of President Buhari has decided not to invest in trying to make them work cos it will amount to throwing good money after bad. The government rather decided to support Dangote by facilitating the loans needed for the construction of the 650,000 BPD Dangote refinery located at the Lekki Free Trade Zone. The government has also encouraged other investors to build modular refineries, licences have been issued and some of them are already under construction in other parts of the country.

GrossPrice:

your pant's on fire - liar

Alright

Buhari is killing Nigeria

No way they would have make money from them when repairs wasn't done. Abi what's this report insinuating. N231b lost in 4years only means trillions of naira lost in 16years of PDP. You and I know those refineries never worked all this while
