Warri refinery will deliver fuel production before March 2023 – Buhari

The Warri refinery currently undergoing rehabilitation will deliver fuel production before the first half of 2023, President Muhammadu Buhari has said.

A statement in Abuja on Thursday by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the President, Femi Adesina, disclosed this.

It stated that Buhari expressed delight after witnessing the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd and Daewoo Group for the rehabilitation of the Kaduna refinery.

It said the President was particularly excited as the signing came against the back of ongoing rehabilitation works at the Warri refinery by the same Daewoo Group of South.

Adesina quoted Buhari as saying, “Daewoo Group has massive investments in the automobile, maritime, and other sectors of our economy.

”I am also aware that Daewoo is currently engaged in the execution of the NLNG train seven project and also constructing sea-going LPG vessels for NNPC and her partners.”

“I looked forward to the delivery of ongoing projects, especially at the Warri and Kaduna refineries, and the NLNG Train Seven.

”This no doubt will open many more windows of opportunities for Daewoo and other Korean companies in Nigeria.”
