Ahead Of August 15 Fuel Distribution Rollout, Dangote Refinery Receives 4,000 CNG Trucks

Ahead of the August 15, 2025 nationwide fuel distribution initiative,  Dangote Petroleum Refinery has announced the arrival of 4,000 brand-new Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) powered trucks in Lagos.

The announcement was made on Saturday via the official Dangote Group X page and was accompanied by a video clip showing the vessel berthing at the port.

In the footage, cranes were seen offloading the CNG trucks onto the company’s base, followed by a wide aerial view of hundreds of the newly imported vehicles lined up in an expansive formation.

“We are delighted to receive 4,000 brand-new CNG trucks as part of our bold distribution initiative, championing cleaner energy and more efficient transportation across Nigeria and beyond,” the post read.

It would be recalled that from mid-August, the refinery plans to commence direct delivery of petrol and diesel to filling stations, industrial plants, and large-volume fuel consumers, eliminating logistics bottlenecks and cutting out middlemen.
