Dangote Petroleum Refinery and Petrochemicals FZE has raised the gantry price of Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) from N1,185 to N1,200 per litre, effective August 26, 2026.
In a notice sent to customers on Tuesday, the refinery’s Group Commercial Operations announced new depot prices for gantry and coastal deliveries.
The email, titled ‘PMS Price Change Communication (N1,185 per Litre To N1,200 Per Litre)’, instructed customers to note the revised DPRP PMS gantry and coastal prices, starting August 26, 2026.
As per the notice’s table, the coastal price increased from N1,562,265 to N1,582,380 per metric tonne, while the gantry price rose from N1,185 to N1,200 per litre.
The refinery also asked customers to return all Authorisation to Collect documents for repricing, stating a new volume contract would be issued to resume immediate loading.
“You are advised to return all ATCs for repricing, and a new volume contract will be issued for immediate loading resumption. Should you require any further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us,” the notice said.
The latest adjustment represents a N15 per litre increase in the gantry price and comes barely days after the refinery raised the price from N1,165 to N1,185 per litre.
