The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) has officially announced that the Port Harcourt Refining Company (PHRC) will undergo a planned maintenance shutdown, effective from May 24, 2025.
In a statement released by Olufemi O. Soneye, Chief Corporate Communications Officer, NNPC Ltd explained that the scheduled maintenance and sustainability assessment are intended to ensure the refinery operates at optimal performance.
The company emphasized that it is working closely with all relevant stakeholders, including the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA), to guarantee the process is carried out efficiently and transparently.
NNPC Ltd reassured the public of its commitment to delivering sustainable energy security for Nigeria and promised to provide regular updates on the maintenance progress through its official channels, including its website, media platforms, and public statements.
The Port Harcourt Refinery complex, which comprises two units with a combined refining capacity of 210,000 barrels per day, has faced operational challenges over the years, leading to previous shutdowns and extensive rehabilitation efforts.
This latest shutdown comes amid ongoing efforts to improve efficiency and reduce Nigeria’s reliance on imported fuel
