The government of Ghana said it will begin to import refined petroleum products from Nigeria to boost the country’s energy security and sustain business cooperation with her neighbours.
The chief executive officer (CEO) of National Petroleum Authority of Gnana, Dr. Mustapha Abdul-Hamid, at the opening panel session at the 18th Africa Downstream Energy Week (OTL) in Lagos, with the the theme, “Alliances of Growth” said the country would take the steps to sign agreement with Dangote Refinery to start importation of products.
This he said will end reliance on products imported from Rotterdam by the Government of Ghana which is more expensive.
Abdul-Hamid, said Ghana has opened key export agreements with her neighbours which include Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger to provide products to international operational facilities especially military facilities operated by the United States of America.
He said in view of the huge investment by Dangote refinery and volume of refined products from the refinery which will take care of Nigeria’s domestic demand the excess will be exported and Ghana will be willing to take much of the products.
