Market Outlook

The latest tanker movements point to continued replenishment of Nigeria’s coastal petroleum supply chain, with 219,000 MT of PMS, AGO Jet A1, and Butain recorded across Lagos, Warri and Port-Harcourt during the review period. The activity suggests that fresh product volumes are continuing to enter the market through key coastal terminals.

The ongoing discharge operations could help sustain product availability across the downstream market as the cargoes move from coastal receiving facilities into the distribution network. However, the vessel movements alone do not indicate the direction of pump prices, as pricing will also depend on depot stocks, distribution costs, local demand and prevailing market conditions.

With further PMS and AGO cargoes continuing to move through the coastal supply chain, the pace of discharge and subsequent inland distribution will remain important to the near-term supply outlook.
