About Simcol Petroleum
A refinery-aligned physical trading and export company focused exclusively on refined petroleum exports to international markets.
Company Overview
SIMCOL Petroleum Nigeria Limited is a licensed petroleum trading and export company specializing in physical refined product movements from Nigerian refineries to international buyers. Operating from our Dubai execution desk, we facilitate institutional-grade transactions in Jet A-1 aviation fuel and automotive gas oil (AGO) for export-only delivery.
Operational Infrastructure
Licensed by Nigeria's NMDPRA (Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority), SIMCOL maintains direct refinery counterparty relationships that enable reliable product access for international delivery. Our Dubai execution desk coordinates transaction logistics, international banking interface, trade finance documentation, and cross-border settlement processes in accordance with global petroleum trading standards.
Market Position
The Nigeria export platform was established in 2022 to serve institutional refined product export buyers who require transparent execution, regulatory compliance, and refinery-aligned sourcing. We operate exclusively in the export market, with no involvement in domestic Nigerian petroleum distribution.
Our platform is structured to support stable refined product corridors between Nigeria and international aviation and diesel markets.
