Dangote Petroleum Refinery has lined up the export of 238,000 metric tonnes of Jet A1 aviation fuel, with one vessel currently loading and two others scheduled to arrive for cargoes bound for Europe, according to the latest tanker movement report.
Shipping data reviewed by Petroleumprice.ng indicates that the refinery's aviation fuel export programme currently involves three vessels carrying a combined 238,000 metric tonnes of Jet A1, underscoring continued international demand for the product from the Lekki-based facility.
At berth, Brands Hatch is loading 99,000 metric tonnes of Jet A1 under a cargo arrangement linked to ADNOC. The vessel arrived on June 23, berthed on June 24 and is scheduled to depart on June 25 after completing loading operations.
The refinery is also expecting two additional vessels to lift aviation fuel cargoes in the coming days.
Front Feature is scheduled to arrive on June 27 to load 99,000 metric tonnes of Jet A1 for export to Rotterdam, while Chowell is expected on the same date to load a further 40,000 metric tonnes destined for the Dutch trading hub. Both cargoes are linked to ADNOC.
The planned shipments bring the total volume of Jet A1 currently loading or scheduled for loading at Dangote Refinery to 238,000 metric tonnes.
The latest vessel programme highlights the refinery's growing participation in international aviation fuel trade, with Rotterdam continuing to feature prominently among destinations for refined petroleum products originating from the facility.
The scheduled cargoes underscore Dangote Refinery's continued participation in the international aviation fuel market, even as the company has suspended petrol exports to prioritize domestic supply obligations. The latest vessel programme indicates sustained demand for Jet A1 produced at the Lekki facility, with aviation fuel remaining one of the refinery's key export products.
