The Warri Refinery, the first Nigerian government wholly owned refinery was commissioned in 1978. It was built to process 100,000 barrels of crude oil per day but was later de-bottlenecked to process 125,000 barrels per day in 1987. It was essentially built to add value to some of the refinery by-products such as propylene rich stock and decant oil. The refinery receives crude for processing from PPMC which is the agent of NNPC CHQ. ​It refines the crude into products at agreed processing fee and yield for off-take by PPMC which is the single processee and off-taker of the products.
