WARRI REFINERY TO SHUTDOWN???


Sahara Reporters talk say Warri refinery go soon close down. They say;

'The refinery operates at a huge loss that could cost the Nigerian government close to N1.2 trillion per year.

The documents reveal that the refinery barely produces 2.3 million liters of gasoline, a mere drop in the bucket compared to the 50 million liters required to daily fuel consumption across Nigeria.

Several units for processing crude at the Warri facility were currently shutdown, the report added.

One pipeline for pumping diesel from the refinery had been shut down because of vandalization at Adeje, Delta State. Pipeline ‘2C’ was also shut down, with a crude oil supply source called Escravos Line remained suspended. A huge crude oil supply line, UQCC, which is supposed to be protected by ex-militant commander, Government Ekpemupolo (alias Tompolo) also remained suspended.
 A second report obtained dated August 18 2015 showed that the Warri refinery had shut down its Crude Distillation Unit (CDU), which is the first stop in the processing of crude and is the refinery’s main distillation unit and engine room.

“Once the CDU is down, technically the refinery is down,” said one inside source.

Other dysfunctional units at the refinery include the Vacuum Distillation Unit (VDU) and the Fluid Catalytic Cracking Unit (FCCU).

An engineer disclosed that technicians at the facility had tried for more than one week to start up the FCCU without success.

“The FCCU is the unit that increases the yield of premium motor spirit,” he said. “If it’s working, the refinery should be able to produce an additional two million liters of gasoline per day.” '
