Investigative Forensic audit of crude oil revenues and remittances by <strong>NNPC</strong> (January 2012 – July 2013)<br />

4.4.6.2. Divergence between the Official Retail Price, Expected Retail<br />

Price and Actual Retail Price of DPK<br />

<br />

PPMC c<strong>on</strong>firmed to us that after buying at N40.90 from <strong>NNPC</strong>/PPMC, the other marketers<br />

bear the cost of Lightering, NPA charges, Jetty throughput and Storage Charge which were<br />

expected to have been borne by <strong>NNPC</strong>/PPMC if <strong>NNPC</strong> were to bring DPK into its depots in<br />

Nigeria and sell at an ex-Depot price of N34.51 to other marketers.<br />

<br />

Using the PPPRA’s template for the calculati<strong>on</strong> of the Landing Cost of DPK, the minimum cost<br />

to the other marketers that ultimately bring DPK into Nigeria is N49.45 and not the official<br />

ex-depot of N34.51. Please see the table below for a breakdown of this minimum cost to the<br />

Other marketers.<br />

Informati<strong>on</strong> in the public domain 53 revealed that the actual retail price of DPK sold by most<br />

marketers in Nigeria ranges between N120 and N140.<br />

<strong>NNPC</strong>, PPMC as well as PPPRA could not provide explanati<strong>on</strong>s for the difference between the<br />

expected retail price of DPK of N58.79 and the actual retail price per litre.<br />
