Kyari, who spoke at the commissioning of the NUPENG Towers in Lagos on Wednesday, said the refinery is up and running, with loading operations in full swing.

On November 26, the refinery commenced crude oil processing after several years of being moribund.

The state-owned plant also commenced the loading of petroleum products for trucks.

The national oil firm disclosed that the refinery commenced production of daily outputs of straight-run petrol (naphtha), which is blended into 1.4 million litres of petrol.

Some Nigerians have questioned the ongoing blending at the refinery when the plant ought to be refining crude.

Speaking on the issue, Kyari said blending is not a crime as it is an integral part of the refining process.

“If you don’t blend, you will bring out off-spec products which will destroy your vehicles,” he said.

“Every refinery blends because what is on specification in the United States of America will be off-spec in Nigeria and elsewhere.

“Blending is necessary to bring products to the specification of different countries or regions.”

Kyari also invited those in doubt about the operationalisation of the refinery, including Femi Falana, human rights activist and lawyer, to him on a tour of the Port Harcourt, Warri, and Kaduna refineries to their various statuses.

He congratulated NUPENG on the successful completion of the NUPENG Towers, urging the union to continue to prioritise dialogue and cooperation in its relationship with the NNPC and the federal government.

The GCEO said the president’s interventions in the oil and gas industry by way of executive orders are yielding positive results, with more investments coming in and prospects of more jobs in the industry.

What audacity? Useless criminal what emiefele is facing now will be child's play compare to what mele kyari will face after all the thieves using him leaves power.

Blending is mixing! Mixing of different products to obtain one product.

Very simple

Refining is simply the breakdown of heavier hydrocarbons to lighter ones; extraction of different products from one source.

Where did you hear that no other products are being produced? They have consistently mentioned at least 4 other products including diesel and kerosene among others.

People do not understand what refining means and what blending means!

Refining is the separation of crude oil into its components like Petrol, Kerosine, diesel, etc.

Blending is the treatment of the end product from refining to meet certain qualities or standards.
