MRS Oil Nigeria Plc has updated its petrol pump prices across the country, reflecting regional variations in distribution and logistics costs. The new pricing structure sets petrol prices at ₦925 per litre in Lagos, ₦935 in the South-West, ₦945 in the North, and ₦955 in the East.
This adjustment comes amid fluctuating global crude oil prices and Nigeria’s evolving downstream petroleum market. The company emphasised that its petrol contains less sulphur, a move towards cleaner energy that enhances engine performance while reducing environmental impact.
Price Monitoring and Compliance
To ensure uniformity in pricing across its filling stations, MRS Oil Nigeria has urged customers to report any deviations from the listed prices.
Impact on the Market
With petrol prices varying by region, industry analysts suggest that transportation costs, supply chain constraints, and depot logistics influence these differences. This price adjustment aligns with the current economic realities, including forex fluctuations and fuel importation costs, as Nigeria continues its transition towards refining more products locally.
The Future of Petrol Pricing
As Dangote Refinery and other modular refineries ramp up production, the market is expected to experience shifts in pricing dynamics. Industry stakeholders anticipate that locally refined fuel will reduce reliance on imports, ultimately stabilising pump prices in the long run.
MRS Oil Nigeria remains one of the key players in Nigeria’s petroleum downstream sector, committed to delivering quality fuel products while supporting environmental sustainability initiatives.
