1. A modular refinery owned by Waltersmith Petroman Oil Limited has received praise from the federal government.

2. The refinery, located in Imo State, will provide a solution to Nigeria's challenges, and the federal government is excited.

3. Already, the refinery is producing over 600 million litres of various products and dispatching 20 trucks daily.

Heineken Lokpobiri, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Oil), has praised WalterSmith Modular Refinery for meeting energy needs in the country.

The refinery located at Ibigwe in Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area of Imo State produces 600 million litres of fuel. Refinery in Imo produces 600 million liters.

Lokpobiri, speaking to journalists after taking a tour of the facility with Simbi Wabote, the Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB), expressed delight with WalterSmith.
The minister also noted that the modular refineries are the shortest way to address Nigeria's energy problems.

His words: "The refineries that are state-owned are still under rehabilitation. As the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, it is my responsibility to ensure that there is sufficient supply of petroleum products pending the resumption of refining activities in the nation’s refineries. “I take charge of the programme to supervise the rehabilitation of our state-owned refineries.
That is why I have gone round all the refineries in Port Harcourt, the refinery in Warri and the refinery in Kaduna. You know the shortest way to addressing our energy problem is the modular refineries. “That is why the Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Content Development Board, said there was the need for us to visit the WalterSmith and that is why I am here today to see things for myself.
I am sure anybody that enters here will be very proud of what we are seeing here."

He added that he is determined to ensure more modular refineries are working “I am happy to be here to see what is going on and to encourage WalterSmith; to that, we can solve our energy problems in this country. But, I want to say that it is not enough for us to give those who have modular refinery license money. We need to identify those who have proven record of success. “Some people will take the money and divert it, but here we are physically seeing one that is functional. And we have also see the expansion of what is going on. And so, we will do whatever we can to support them." Refinery capacity For Wabote NCDMB Executive Secretary, he expressed delight that the modular refinery was successful. He disclosed that "they have produced over 600 million litres of various products from this refinery. About 20 trucks leave the refineries daily.

“We have gone round and you can see that the refinery is working. We are very happy it is successful. Usually, it is not every investment that you participate in that comes out successful.” FG Moves to force oil firms to supply crude to Dangote, other refineries

Legit.ng reported that the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NURPC) said on Saturday, October 28, 2023, that it would take all the required steps within the Petroleum Industry Act 2021 to ensure enough and regular supply of crude oil to upcoming refineries in Nigeria.
The Commission summoned a meeting with 52 crude oil exploration and production companies to ensure the ramping up of feedstock for new refineries in Nigeria. The Commission's Head of Public Affairs and Corporate Communications, Olaide Shonola, warned in a statement that there would be consequences for undermining the process.

Congratulations to the visionary entrepreneurs behind this modular refinery.

Kudos to the natives for being good hosts for this mutually beneficial investment.

Tinubu should help nigerians to reduce fuel price. We can't buy fuel in Nigeria at international price while earning Nigeria's salary. Crude should should be subsidized for the refineries. Nigeria has 445000 barrel allocated for internal consumption. That should be made available to the modular refineries to reduce fuel cost.

I am dancing galala,azonto,breakdance and shouting in my room right now
This is perhaps the biggest news to hit Nigeria today,if only Nigerians understand what this news symbolizes
Shame on all the saboteurs who said we will continue to bring in imported refined crude,shame on you
This is very big news,it will send shock waves to those in NNPCL.Local Refining has began and it will not stop.
All other Modular Refineries should start preparing the road,I call them the pathfinder
When the Big Behemoth in Ibeju Lekki,Lagos State (Dangote Refinery) starts operations later this year,some people in NNPCL and all their local and foreign collaborators will have serious issues to grapple with
Asiwaju,I know you will do the needful and sell at least two of those scrap metals called Refineries
No more job for the boys,let them start working for their money and find a way to stop importantation
I don't care whether it is 600million litres or 5 litres,my joy is that Local Refining has started in Nigeria
Once all other Modular Refineries and Dangote Refinery start full operations,it will reduce pressure on our foreign reserves,affect prices of PMS,AGO and DPK
Please government should provide security at that Refinery,I don't trust all this saboteurs
Also,the Ibeju Lekki Industrial Hub is going to be biggest residential and commercial hub in West Africa,get a property there

Why guess ?
Is it a game?

This sounds to me like a subject for serious people
It is not Big Brother House or Romance section

Use your brain ,ask questions do some research
E.g how many litres of petrol can be extracted from a barrel of crude oil.? How many barrels is the capacity of the refinery?
Young people today are so annoying. So lazy ,so dull

If you don't have patience for research or thinking just stick to celebrity gist

It is correct, read again, this time slowly. They are describing total production since inception and not the daily production capacity as you were expecting. Ciao

OP recheck your stories. Modular refinery cannot produce 600m or 600k liter of fuel. Dangote isn't modular and it should produce 650k.
Oh it has no source sef! Mtchew

They actually meant 600m total liters that have been refined since the refinery came on stream not daily.

Logistic payment is the only gain here,they will still have to purchase crude oil with dollar either from fg or import it.
