  • Should we build a refinery in Uganda?
  • We must hold steadfast to our vision of building a refinery with a capacity of 60,000 barrels of oil per day in Uganda. The need for a refinery in this region is paramount and cannot be overstated. Eastern and southern Africa are largely devoid of operational refineries, with the exception of one in South Africa.
  • What is Uganda's first oil project?
  • French supermajor Total and Chinese state oil company CNOOC decided to go ahead with Uganda¡¯s first oil project at the start of February 2022. As part of this, they are constructing the East Africa Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP), which will have the capacity to export 216,000 barrels per day (bpd) of oil.
  • Will the government take a large equity stake in Uganda's Oil Refinery?
  • The government¡¯s plan to take a large equity stake in the oil refinery is risky and may be unnecessary. French supermajor Total and Chinese state oil company CNOOC decided to go ahead with Uganda¡¯s first oil project at the start of February 2022.
  • How many barrels a day should a refinery produce in Uganda?
  • Projected Ugandan demand to 2050 (thousands of barrels per day) The refinery must export any production that the domestic market does not consume. Being located inland, it should be able to supply its landlocked neighbors without much competition unless other inland refineries are built in the vicinity.
  • What are Uganda's tough decisions when negotiating a refinery project?
  • Like elsewhere in the world, in negotiating the refinery project, Uganda will be faced with a number of difficult decisions. Among the tough decisions when considering the refinery will be the need to protect the environment and a secure, affordable, and low-carbon energy one.
  • Will other projects advance to oil production in Uganda?
  • Whether and when other projects will advance to oil production is uncertain. 60 percent of Uganda is unexplored and there has been a high success rate in areas that have been explored. Exploration plans are advancing in several other blocks, such as Ngassa, Kanywataba and Turaco.
