Nigeria’s downstream petroleum logistics chain recorded fresh marine inflows between April 24 and 30, 2026, as multiple PMS, AGO, Jet A1 and Base Oil cargoes berthed across major receiving points in Lagos, Calabar and Port Harcourt, reinforcing depot replenishment and supporting near-term product availability.
The coordinated vessel movements across Apapa, Ibafon, Lekki, Onne and Warri corridors reflect continued dependence on marine redistribution, with Dangote-linked coastal transfers and NY Maria transhipment operations sustaining inland product circulation and easing pressure on traditional gantry routes.

Market Outlook
Latest vessel arrivals show a steady inflow of PMS into Lagos, and Port Harcourt, with key marketers including NIPCO, AA Rano, Ardova, Integrated Oil and Pivot Energy actively receiving fresh product volumes.
The continued use of Dangote-linked coastal redistribution remains central to supply balancing, especially as Lekki-origin cargoes continue to feed Apapa, Ibafon and Onne discharge corridors. NY Maria transhipment activity also remains active, helping sustain vessel turnaround and reduce berth congestion across key private jetties.
PMS dominates this cycle’s arrivals, reinforcing short-term depot replenishment across Lagos and Warri, while AGO and Jet A1 inflows into Onne, Ibafon and Apapa support industrial and aviation demand. With multiple vessels still discharging and secondary inland redistribution underway, depot stock levels are expected to improve modestly in the near term.
