Nigerians never stops o amaze me. Every time a story of Dangote refinery comes up, I see a lot of people complaining. Some go as far as saying the refinery is a scam.

First and foremost, there is no businessman who doesn't want to make money from his investment. Dangote wants to make money, and he has invested billions into this project, and he will do anything to make sure it succeeds. Like every other businesses, there are going to be hiccups and delays and other issues before it fully kicks off. This is not a fast food restaurant project. Engineering and mechanical projects of this magnitude will certainly face challenges before fully operational.

Why are people calling this project scam?? Like really??

Dangote wants to make money and he certainly will. I think you guyz should focus on your own life and projects cause Dangote will succeed with this.

If you know how fractional distillation works you will not say this , all products are run in one swoop

Great News for Nigerians, I'm very sure Nigerians who use Diesel to power their industries will be eagerly anticipating the day when the supply from Dangote will flood the market.
I'm also sure the airline companies will have their tankers ready to receive fuel from the Refinery.
I really won't be bothered by the report of when petrol will hit the market,my common sense already told me NNPCL announced sometime last month the country will be wet with petrol for the yuletide season,I expect their imported stock of Petrol will probably be exhausted when Dangote Refinery begins its own production,that's common sense of Business 101.
Naysayers told us Dangote Refinery will not be completed,it was completed and commissioned by Baba Buhari,these Naysayers also said it wont work until 2033,yet crude was received in December and production has started,now they have started again,I repeat if you still don't believe the Refinery will pump out products then you are worse than Doubting Thomas.
I like to focus on the good news in the Report,the sheer amount of Employment that will be created by the Refinery is mind-blowing.
I repeat again,only a foolish person will ignore these figures,call today to get a piece of investment around the Refinery.

God bless Nigeria

drstan:
My friend working there said the section for petrol production is not ready that it's only kerosene, diesel and other's that are ready

asamaigho:

which one is section for petrol not ready?
Is it not a fractional distillation process again?
is the the distilation separation tank not dsame for all product?
Abeg nigerians r not fools, they should stop all this deception

Kelvin30286063:

Your friend is a dullard sorry to say cos all products are refined at the same time but at different boiling points.

Nodogragra4me:



Your friend works as a labourer so he doesn't know what is what... Just carrying rod and cement about the complex



There is not section for pms. Everything goes into the same distillation tanks because there is no different crude for pms and others


You and your casual worker friend are both ignoramuses

vikstandon:



What it means is that the company would be wasting other fractions of the crude.

That portends great environmental danger!

drstan:
I for insult you but my mama train me well, see today headlines. For your info my friend is a first class graduate of petrochemicals engineering with MSc. Thank you.

Nodogragra4me:




This headline doesn't change or prove anything.


There is no Depot or refinery that strays with pms. It is always with ago



Crude oil is pumped into a single tank for distillation into different products. As heat is applied, the products begins to evaporate to the top of that tank where different outlets is already installed.


Apart from methane and other very light product, fuel, that is pms moves as heat to the top and escapes through it pipe..... This thing is like pressure pot.... After pms, kerosene, Dpk begins to move to the top and escape then other thicker products like ago lpfo a d coal tar





There is no different section but different tank to receive the finished products



This things is not rocket science.


You can cook this product in tout house if you can get the crude




Your friends is not an MSc holder and even if he is, h ti's not working with that certificate... He should know about this catalyyic process




This is the business I have been in for years....

It is as clear to me as day and night




The only reason they won't produce pms is regulatory.


AGO is oily and can help detect leaks t is favoured as first product so the oil will stain the tank it it has leaks



Jet A1 is Dpk without colour

Dpk means dual purpose kerosene

drstan:
not at all, the section for final processing of petrol is not ready hence petrol will not be sold except other products.

SalamRushdie:

drstan:

Bro, I'm science inclined and I know all the process about fractional distillation. What I'm saying here is all the final process for petrol to be ready for the public use is not ready! Or you mean after the petrol leaves it chamber to the storage facilities what follows is to sale to the public? The reason it won't be ready is not regulatory as you said, does that make sense?

vikstandon:


If you say final processing or finishing of the product, I will agree with you.

Because there are other addictives that are added to petrol to aid the combustion and preserve the engine. But for someone to say Petrol is a fraction near to end of fractional distillation of crude oil... That I wouldn't agree with.

SmartyPants:


Have you ever undertaken any project of any sort? Even a small building? All of this is fairly normal in a complex operating environment like Nigeria. Besides, this is someone's private business so really, why should he lie to the public?

GeneralDae:

The refinery was built to address FX issues which ultimately in the long run reduces price.

Diesel is more important than pms.

Without diesel the poor man won't have a job, where he works



The economy runs in it not pms. Every big industry relies on it

Omodua:
Thanks for the insight.

But with spate of ethnic-filled demolitions in Lagos state, it's risky buying a Land from you at Ibeju-Lekki close to the Dangote Refinery.

May be, when the coast is clear and grey areas that inhibit our unity are settled then one could think of buying land.

For now, non indigenes of Yoruba extraction are putting a halt in buying lands in Lagos state. After the elections, and current spate of demolitions,only an idiot will risk buying a land in Lagos state.

Faiththatworks:



My brother,only an unwise investor will wait until the artificial and online tension are cleared before Investing around the Refinery.
Money is not tribalistic,it doesn't see ethnicity or religion.
Although you made some valid points,but due diligence has been done on the properties so no need to be scared of demolition.
I have it on very good authority and from very genuine sources,that a female Minister of South-Eastern Extraction who's presently in an "World Organization" bought a Whole Village on the beach front directly beside Dangote Jetty at a cost of 300,000 per plot less than 8 years ago, when I visited yesterday,a plot in that same place is selling for 15,000,000.
The Villagers really respect this person and hold her in high esteem and no one dares encroach on the property.
The best time to invest around the Refinery is yesterday,but the next best time is today.
I repeat No business person is tribalistic with money.
Still Selling in Land around the Refinery in Ibeju-lekki.

Etranshub:
the thread says diesel jet A1 not AGO this(diesel jet A1) is mainly used by aircraft so how many of the big industry relies on diesel jet A1 and how is it more important than pms?

Nodogragra4me:



What is diesel JETA1?

ignoramuses everywhere




AGO is diesel and diesel is AGO
