Abuja: The Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) says the daily domestic supply of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) rose to 74.2 million litres/day (ml/d) in December 2025.
This is relative to the 71.5 million litres/day supplied in November 2025.
The NMDPRA made this known in its December 2025 Factsheet Report, released on Thursday.
The report contains key statistics on Nigeria’s midstream and downstream petroleum operations.
It revealed that consumption of PMS, also known as fuel, increased to 63.7 million litres/day in December 2025, up from 52.9 million litres/day in November 2025.
According to the report, Dangote Refinery achieved strong capacity utilisation in December, reaching a maximum of 71 per cent.
It said that the Dangote Refinery’s domestic PMS supply increased from 19.47ml/d in November 2025 to an average of 32.012ml/d in December 2025, with an initial plan of 50ml/d for December.
It said that Automotive Gas Oil (Diesel) domestic supply decreased to 17.9ml/d in December 2025 from 20.4ml/d in November 2025, while daily consumption increased to 16.4ml/d in December 2025 from 15.4ml/d in November 2025.
The report revealed that the domestic supply of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) also increased to 5.2mt/d in December 2025 from 5.0mt/d in November 2025.
The NMDPRA factsheet, however, disclosed that the four national oil refineries recorded zero production within the period under review.
It said there were no production activities at the Port Harcourt Refinery, as the refinery remained in shutdown mode.
“However, evacuation of prior AGO produced while the refinery was operational before May 24, 2025, averaged 0.247 million litres/day.”
Meanwhile, it said that the Warri and Kaduna Refineries remained shut down.

According to the report, the refinery’s average capacity utilisation is at 63.24 per cent, while the average AGO supply is 0.051 million litres/day.
“Edo Refinery’s average capacity utilisation is 85.43 per cent, and average AGO supply is 0.052ml/d.
“ARADEL’s average capacity utilisation was 53.89% and average AGO supply was 0.289ml/d,” it said.
The report revealed that total AGO supply from the three modular refineries averaged 0.392 ml/d, adding that other products from the modular refineries included Naphtha, HHK, fuel oil, and MDO.
The report showed Daily Consumption Benchmarks for 2025 as follows: PMS, 50 ml/d; Diesel, 14 ml/d; Aviation Fuel (ATK), 3 ml/d; and Cooking Gas, 3,900 mt/d.
It showed Daily Consumption (truck out) of key Petroleum Products as: PMS, 63.7 ml/d; Diesel, 16.4 ml/d; Aviation Fuel (ATK), 2.7 ml/d; and Cooking Gas, 4,380 mt/day.
