Now we are ramping up to make it even 100%.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnything going to Calabar, Port Harcourt, Warri, Apapa, Atlas can all be taken through the sea. So only what is imminently required by road can be taken.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I also have the facility to load 83% of my production also through road. We have just built-in flexibility but we can avoid all traffic congestion on the road by evacuating through sea and it will also bring down the cost of transshipment.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 650,000 barrels per day capacity Dangote Refinery has supplied about 79.4 million litres of petrol by sea to the domestic market, according to a port report and ship-tracking data yesterday from Bloomberg.
