Vitol buys first naphtha cargo from Nigeria’s Dangote oil refinery

Trading house Vitol has bought the first naphtha cargo produced for export by Nigeria’s new 650,000 barrel per day Dangote oil refinery, two sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters.

Dangote issued a tender to sell the 60,000 metric ton cargo earlier this month for Feb. 23-29 loading.

Vitol declined to comment.
