You have 90 days to resume full production – NNPC GMD tells Warri Refinery management

Group Managing Director (GMD) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Dr. Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu, has given management of the Warri Refineries and Petrochemicals 90 days to resume full production.

The GMD told journalists, Thursday after a facility tour of the Refinery that the establishment must produce 125,000 barrels of crude oil per day, on or before 60 days from now.

The GMD explained that he is ready to provide the management with the facilities to work, but they must fast-track the production process.

According to him, “Whatever you need to do to get your refinery back on track, please do it now because this is the time. It’s a 90 days fast-track programme. And whatever you need me to do to make that happen, let me know,” Kachikwu said.

The Warri Refinery was commissioned in 1978.
