據烴加工新聞9月2日消息稱，尼日利亞石油業監管機構周二表示，隨著該國煉油廠項目的投產，該國的目標是在未來兩年內成為汽油和其他石油產品的凈出口國。

該國石油資源部(DPR)表示，全國正在建設5家煉油廠，另有7家正在計劃中，這將扭轉尼日利亞對進口的依賴。

DPR首席執行官薩基·奧瓦盧（Sarki Auwalu）在一份聲明中稱，預計27家模塊化煉油廠的日產量將達37.5萬桶。

他表示，政府的產能為45萬桶/天，但沒有透露這些項目何時完工。

奧瓦盧說，DPR的目標是將石油儲量擴大到400億桶，天然氣儲量擴大到210萬億立方英尺，但他沒有提供相應的數據。

奧瓦盧稱，該國能源部的目標是將石油產量從目前的240萬桶/天提高到300萬桶/天，并降低生產成本。

Nigeria aims to be net exporter of petrol over next two years

Nigeria aims to become a net exporter of gasoline and other petroleum products over the next two years as oil refinery projects in the West African country come onstream, the industry regulator said on Tuesday.

The Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR) said five refineries are being built across the country and another seven are planned, which would reverse Nigeria’s dependence on imports.

A combined capacity of 375,000 barrels per day (bpd) is expected from 27 modular refineries, DPR Chief Executive Sarki Auwalu said in a statement.

The government has a 450,000 bpd capacity, he said, without saying when the projects will be completed.

The DPR aims to expand oil reserves to 40 billion barrels and gas reserves to 210 trillion cubic feet, Auwalu said, without providing a comparative figure.

Auwalu said the department would aim to grow oil production from its current 2.4 million bpd capacity to 3 million bpd production capacity and cut production costs.
