BUA Group signs France’s Axens for new refinery project

The new project will go head-to-head with Nigeria's other large scale refinery project, being built by the Dangote Group.

France’s largest hydrocarbons group Axens has won a contract to license key refinery technologies to one of Nigeria’s leading industrial conglomerates, the BUA Group.

For Rabiu, the economics of the project are a ‘no-brainer’: “Nigeria imports 90% of it’s petroleum products. We spend 35% of our foreign exchange on importing petroleum products.”

The new refinery, with a capacity to produce 200,000 barrels per day (bpd), should be operational in 2024. By comparison, the Dangote Group project will produce 600,000 bpd.

The bidding process was managed by energy consultants KBR, which will also be handling subsequent rounds for the engineering and construction phase, currently underway.

The refinery will be built using an undisclosed mix of debt and equity, with several development and commercial banks in negotiations with BUA Group.

Lol, the oil is in Niger Delta but the companies drilling the oil are based in Lagos and pays tax to Lagos State government

The crude oil is in Niger Delta but the oil well owners are largely Northerners

The crude oil is in the Niger Delta but the refinary builders are Northerners who are building the refineries in Lagos region

The crude oil wealth is gotten from the Niger Delta with nothing on ground to show for it except polluted rivers, farmlands, gas flares and acid rains but the proceeds are seen in other places

The funny thing is that the actual mugu in all these crimes against humanity thinks they're wise and smart while those they always see as dull are the ones who have completely used them as slaves

By the time the "our oyel crew" and "we are not Igbos" local champions realize what has happened to them, it will be very very late.

The most thoughtless, unreasonable and self hating people in the world has been discovered

Privatize our refineries dem no gree! In d end, we’re all waiting for someone to sink his billions into building a private refinery like he only doing it to beat Santa Claus in dash dash!

Why cant tinubu , jame ibori ,auther eze build refinery?....

HMMMMMMMMM

YOU HAVE JUST ACCEPTED DEFEAT.

IT SEEMS THE ABOKIS HAVE SUPERIOR INTELLIGENCE OR PERHAPS THEY ARE BETTER BUSINESSMEN .

1. WHAT STOPPED ALL EXISTING PLANS TO BUILD A REFINERY IN AKWA IBOM FOR 20 YEARS BY MULTIPLE INVESTORS.
NA ABOKI SABI PASS JARE.

2. MOST OF THE STATES IN THE NIGER DELTA HAD SUCH PLANS BUT THEY NEVER ACHIEVED THIS FEAT.

3. WHO IS HOLDING BACK ANY NIGER DELTAN FROM ACHIEVING SUCH.

4. WHO IS STOPPING YOU FROM DOING THE SAME IN YOUR STATE.

BROS NO BE BY MOUTH.

THOSE THAT HAVE THE BRAIN AND CAPACITY SHOULD SHOWCASE.

IF YOU NO GET MONEY HIDE YOUR FACE

KANO FOLKS HAVE SILENTLY SHOWN THAT THEY ARE THE BEST BUSINESSMEN IN NAIJA.

NOTE BUA AND DANGOTE ARE THE ONLY NIGERIANS THAT OWN SUGAR REFINERY.

The "our oil crew" and "we are not Igbos local champions" are too timid, too scared and lacking in foresight to know what is good and right for them and pursue it.

They can't think or act smart, even if it's just for once.
Instead of their leaders and youths to brainstorm, call a meeting and take a unanimous decision over these terrible situations, they will keep mute and be forming ethnic nationalities that are made up of little villages In the North, villages that are far flung and not contigous will band together as Hausa or Fulani even when such identity is in doubt, but because they understood that there is strength in unity, they stick together and pursue their interests with one voice, but here, villages were decieved to cut off ties with one another even when there is overwhelming evidence of their bonds, and they were told to isolate themselves in the name of ethnic nationalities even when they're just minute villages The result? They're pillaged, exploited and dehumanized with reckless abandon and despite all, they still can't decipher why all these evil is befalling them.

No sensible person will buy your old moribund refineries, and those sinking their money into building refineries are not santa claus but very astute profit makers who take advantage of opportunity.

Cyberterror:
This is a welcome development. Fulani people are trying. It's just their herdsmen who are causing problems for everybody and damaging the image of the good ones among them.

If the so-called developments were coming from Igbo people under a Nigerian government led by Igbo people, every dumb fool in the shithole called Nigeria would have been shouting Igbo domination all year long.

Sounds to me like they already monopolized in the get sense department and good on them.
