“No marketers are paid petrol subsidy by NNPC Ltd as marketers buy below cost price. Marketers will now pay the cost price as determined by the market. Suppliers import products on commercial terms for NNPCL Ltd on the back of their credit abilities. NNPVL Ltd will no longer be the sole importer of petroleum products.

“NNPCL Ltd pays suppliers either cash or delivers the equal value of crude oil volumes as settlement. Crude oil swap deals will phase out.
