The Dangote Petroleum Refinery signed the offer documents for its initial public offering (IPO) on Monday, September 7, 2026, in Lagos, Nigeria, aiming to raise N2.15 trillion (approximately US$1.6 billion) by offering 4.1 billion shares at N525 each (about US$0.40).
The IPO is structured to allow ordinary Nigerians, including drivers, cooks, and traders, to participate, with a minimum subscription of 10 shares costing N5,250 (about US$4).
This share offering is expected to be Africa's largest ever and could push the total capitalization of the Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX) above N200 trillion.
The refinery plans to invest US$14.3 billion to double its processing capacity from 700,000 barrels per day (bpd) to 1.4 million bpd by 2029.
Ahead of the IPO, the refinery cut its debt by US$570 million to US$5.7 billion.
In the first half of 2026, the Dangote Refinery recorded N19.5 trillion in revenue and N2.55 trillion in profit.
Abu Dhabi National Oil Co. (ADNOC) is reportedly in talks to acquire a stake in the refinery, and Aliko Dangote confirmed interest from ADNOC, governments, and other strategic investors.
