LAGOS, July 29 (Reuters) - A piece of equipment that will
process crude oil for Nigeria's Dangote refinery set sail on
Monday from China, oil company Sinopec said in a tweet.
The 650,000 barrel per day (bpd) refinery near Lagos is set
to be Africa's largest, and could transform the country from a
fuels importer to a net exporter.
"On July 29, the world's largest atmospheric tower built by
Sinopec slowly left a wharf in Ningbo," the Sinopec tweet said.
"Following the Maritime #SilkRoad, it will travel to #Nigeria
and be installed at the world's biggest single-train facility -
Nigeria's Dangote Refinery."
For the type of refinery the company is building, the
atmospheric tower is the primary unit processing crude oil into
fuels, Citac analyst Jeremy Parker told Reuters. It will likely
take at least a month to reach Lagos.
