“This framework will see Ardova Plc offtake a full slate of petroleum products from the refinery. While Ardova Plc has been a significant off taker from the refinery since its inception, this new framework will institutionalise a more robust relationship between the two companies to further enhance the emerging competitive landscape in the downstream oil and gas industry in the country.
“This framework is in line with President Tinubu’s drive for competition and improved efficiency in the industry and will see Ardova Plc deliver products at competitive prices nationwide,” he stated.
During the Yuletide season, many Nigerians took advantage of lower fuel prices, with PMS selling for as little as N940 and N950 per liter at certain gas stations.
This change followed the MRS agreement, which addressed the long-standing problem of price differences across states by reducing fuel rates to N935 per litre across all of its stations nationally.

The business claims that the move was in line with the precedent set by MRS Oil Nigeria Plc, which had already signed a comparable contract with Dangote Refinery.
