据路透社7月11日阿布贾报道,非洲主要原油生产国尼日利亚打算克服其混乱和正在崩溃的炼油部门来生产至少能够满足国内20%需求的汽油。
尼日利亚国家石油公司负责炼油业务的主管对路透社记者说,尼日利亚国家石油公司希望国内的炼油厂能够满足国内20%的汽油需求。
尼日利亚国家石油公司负责很多炼油系统开发的总裁穆哈马杜·布哈里说,他希望能够减少尼日利亚对昂贵和贪污盛行补贴的进口的依赖。
尼日利亚国家石油公司负责炼油和石化业务的集团执行董事伊恩·乌多夫说,他预计一个月将收到6船尼日利亚邦尼轻质原油和埃斯可拉沃斯原油来运行18万桶/天或40%的尼日利亚总炼油能力。
他预计日产800万公升汽油,这将占到尼日利亚估计消费量的大约20%。

Nigeria aims to produce 20pc of its gasoline needs
ABUJA,July 11,2015
Major crude oil producer Nigeria aims to overcome its chaotic and crumbling refining sector to produce at least a fraction of the gasoline it needs to use itself.
Its state oil company hopes that domestic plants can cover 20 percent of Nigeria's gasoline needs, the head of refining told Reuters.
President Muhammadu Buhari, who oversaw much of the refining system's development, is keen to reduce reliance on costly and graft-ridden subsidised imports.
Ian Udoh, the group executive director of refining and petrochemicals, said that he expected to receive six cargoes a month of Nigerian Bonny Light and Escravos crude oil to run 180,000 barrels per day (bpd) or 40 percent, of Nigeria's total refining capacity.
He expected to produce 8 million litres a day of gasoline, accounting for about 20 percent of Nigeria's estimated consumption. – Reuters
