  • Where is the proposed oil refinery located in Ghana?
  • The proposed oil refinery is to be located in Tema in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana, 30 kilometers east of Accra. It is to be built on Plot No. IND/HI/21/5 at the Tema Heavy Industrial Area, which is one of the core areas of Ghana¡¯s industrial activities.
  • Does Ghana need a modern oil refinery?
  • The Tema Oil Refinery established in 1957 with a 45,000 barrel per day capacity, is still the only major oil refinery in Ghana. With a current national daily demand of 83,000 barrels, there is clearly the need for a modern refinery to fill this demand gap and also satisfy international markets.
  • What is the largest oil refinery in Ghana?
  • The Tema Oil Refinery (TOR), established in 1957 with a 45,000 barrel per day capacity, is still the only major oil refinery in Ghana. Platon Gas Oil Limited, the first private functional oil refinery in Ghana, established in 2014, has a maximum capacity of about 6,000 barrels per day (SORL, 2019a).
  • How much money is needed to build a new oil refinery in Ghana?
  • The entity was created in September 2021 and tasked with the creation of a USD 60-billion downstream hub. The project involves construction of three 300,000-bpd refineries that are expandable to 500,000 bpd, two oil jetties, two petrochemical plants and a storage facility in Western Ghana. The first phase will demand a USD 12 billion investment.
