Brent: $62.12 (down from $64.39)
Outlook: A sub-$60 per barrel environment remains likely given current market signals and geopolitical developments.
Nigeria LPG Market – Depot Prices Drop in Lagos, South-South Remains Tight
Nigeria’s LPG market saw notable price reductions at Lagos depots, while prices in the South-South region remained largely unchanged due to the absence of new cargoes in Port Harcourt and nearby terminals.
NAVGAS prices dipped to ₦17.7 million per 20MT
Other Lagos depots sold around ₦18 million per 20MT
Dangote Refinery LPG was sold as low as ₦16.5 million per 20MT, though prices have since edged upward due to delayed loading operations. This may indicate tighter-than-expected availability for December.
Based on current calculations, the landing cost for imported LPG is around ₦17.5 million per 20MT, which should serve as a practical floor price (excluding Dangote) as we approach December.
Retail Cooking Gas – Prices Stable Nationwide
Sources report that retail prices remained steady, with most locations selling between ₦1,300–₦1,500/kg nationwide.
Prices are expected to ease after the festive period once current supply volumes fully filter through the market.
