Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited will complete the Port Harcourt Refining Company, PHRC, test run in January 2024.<\/p>\n

The spokesperson of NNPCL, Femi Soneye, disclosed this in an interview on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cTesting will conclude shortly, ensuring the refinery\u2019s efficient operation. That phase will be completed this month,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The refinery is currently undergoing revamping and is expected to kickstart the processing of 60,000 barrels per day in a short period, according to the NNPCL.<\/p>\n

The company added that it aimed to achieve a maximum capacity of 210,000 barrels per day later in the year.<\/p>\n

The development comes as NNPCL stated that it kept its promises on mechanical completion of the Port Harcourt refinery in December last year.<\/p>\n

Recall that in March 2021, the Nigerian Federal Executive Council approved $1.5 billion to rehabilitate the Port Harcourt Refinery.<\/p>\n

This is as data showed that the Nigerian government has spent N11.35 trillion ($25 billion) in the past ten years on fixing the country\u2019s three refineries.<\/p>\n
