The Dangote Petroleum Refinery is set to roll out the sale of Premium Motor Spirit, otherwise known as petrol, according to reports.
This is coming a few days after the 650,000-capacity refinery engaged in a test-run of the product.
Industry sources confirmed to some newsmen that the product would hit the market soon.
The sources, who pleaded anonymity further revealed that the government and the Dangote Group were working out modalities for the circulation of the product.
A government source hinted that the sale and distribution of the PMS is being sorted out with the Federal Government.
The source added that only the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited would be authorised to sell the Dangote fuel at the moment.
Recall that petrol from the Dangote refinery was supposed to have been out since June, but the refinery battled crude shortage and entered into a brawl with the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Regulatory Authority, which accused the refinery of producing substandard diesel.
The intervention of the Federal Government that crude oil should be supplied to the refinery in the local currency seems to be yielding the desired result.
