The retail pump price of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), commonly known as petrol, ranges between ₦1,380 and ₦1,450 per liter across filling stations in Nigeria as of Monday, September 28, 2026.
Prices have stabilized around these current figures following a series of adjustments made by major refining hubs and state-owned retail networks:
Dangote Refinery Ex-Gantry Price: Recently reduced by ₦25 per liter to ₦1,325 per liter (down from ₦1,350/L) following fluctuations in global Brent crude oil prices.
Coastal Depot Prices: Coastal depots across Lagos, Port Harcourt, Warri, and Calabar average between ₦1,303 and ₦1,332 per liter.
NNPCL & Major Outlets: NNPCL retail stations across key urban centers sell between ₦1,395 and ₦1,405 per liter, depending on location (with Wuse and Expressway stations in Abuja trading between ₦1,395/L and ₦1,405/L).
Independent Marketers: Independent retail filling stations continue dispensing petrol between ₦1,380 and ₦1,450 per liter to cover transportation and regional distribution margins.
State-by-state pricing breakdowns show regional logistics variations:
Lagos & South-West: ₦1,380 – ₦1,410 per liter
Abuja & North-Central: ₦1,395 – ₦1,430 per liter
Rivers, Delta & South-South: ₦1,390 – ₦1,420 per liter
Enugu, Abia & South-East: ₦1,390 – ₦1,425 per liter
Kano, Kaduna & North-West: ₦1,410 – ₦1,440 per liter
Borno, Taraba & North-East: ₦1,430 – ₦1,450 per liter
Industry analysts note that while ex-gantry and coastal depot prices recorded a slight decline toward late September, retail pump prices at major filling stations remain steady as marketers align with replacement landing costs and transport logistics.
