Nigeria's Dangote Refinery to Double Workforce by 2029 Amid Expansion: Media
Africa’s largest oil refinery plans to nearly double its workforce by 2029 to support production expansion, local media reported, citing Dangote Industries VP Devakumar Edwin.
"Within the refinery, the workforce will practically become double, except in the water treatment section, because there we already have substantial capacity,” the publication quoted him as saying.
Short-term hiring in the transport sector will only occur if domestic fuel demand rises, Edwin noted.
Recently, the refinery launched an IPO aiming to raise approximately $1.6 billion for further expansion.
