The crude crisis rocking the Dangote Oil Refinery took a new twist on Friday as the refinery engaged in an exchange of words with the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission.

The PUNCH reports that the Dangote Group on Thursday, accused the NUPRC of failing to enforce the Domestic Crude Supply Obligations effectively, saying it is yet to get enough crude locally.

Reacting, the NUPRC debunked the claim on Friday, stating that it facilitated the supply of over 29 million barrels of crude oil to Dangote Refinery from January to June 2024.

However, in a swift response, the Dangote Refinery said it did not receive any 29mb of crude.
