April 4, 2024--Written by Paul Wiseman for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Hampered by a host of factors including, most recently, a shortage of crude oil feedstock, Dangote Industries Limited's Lekki, Nigeria refinery has commenced commercial operations of its crude unit. A recent alert from Industrial Info noted that the 650,000-barrel-per-day (BBL/d) unit was operating at 50% capacity. The company has not yet projected when it might reach 100% capacity.
