The CEO of Aradel Plc, Adegbite Falade, expressed satisfaction with the company’s performance and attributed it to the initiatives implemented in the previous year.

Falade expects the positive outcomes to continue throughout the year and believes they will lead to increased value for the company, its shareholders, and the country. Aradel Plc is focused on creating value for its stakeholders and plans to continue increasing production and refining capacity with future drilling projects.

The Nigerian energy company, Aradel Holdings, is set to start operations at its modular refinery soon. The company’s CEO, Adegbite Falade, believes that local refining of crude oil into petroleum products is crucial for Nigeria. 

Local refining will reduce the country’s reliance on foreign exchange and create job opportunities. The primary benefit of local refining is not price, but rather import substitution and job creation. 

Aradel Holdings aims to deliver sustainable energy solutions while preserving the environment. The company plans to scale up its operations in hydrocarbon extraction, refining, and renewable energy offerings. 

The Nigerian government and industry stakeholders have praised Aradel for its achievements and emphasized the importance of local content adherence and development.
