THE Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited , Mele Kyari has declared that the Port Harcourt refinery will begin to deliver refined petroleum products in August while that of Kaduna and Warri will commence by December, just as he insisted that they were not lying to the nation.
Kyari said, “Yes, I’m aware that there are several comments in the public space around refining business and domestic production, including production that will come from the commissioned Dangote refinery. Yes, this country, as we have said, will be a net exporter of petroleum products by the end of this year.
“Once you are mechanically completed for an existing refinery, even for new ones, there are several technical steps that you have to take when you are introducing hydrocarbon into this plant. It is only then that you will see the real challenges of even a new refinery. And I can confirm to you today that we have gone through this.
“This is very normal in a refinery operation. So we don’t put hard debts on it because there are things that you are never in control. Otherwise, I can confirm to you that we are taking every step to make sure that it works.” “The National Assembly is very concerned because we are the representatives of the people. And we are obliged to ask what is happening. And this is the reason why such a meeting is very important.
