  • What is Uganda Oil Refinery?
  • The Uganda Oil Refinery is a planned crude oil refinery in Kabaale village, on the Eastern shore of Lake Albert along the Hoima?Kaiso?Tonya Road, Buseruka Sub-county, Hoima District, Western Region, Uganda, near the border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It has been planned since 2010. Community opposition was repressed early on.
  • What impact could a refinery have on Uganda’s Development?
  • Various government policy documents and external studies have set out the impact that the refinery could have on Uganda’s development. Concerns about the security of Uganda’s fuel supply have been at the heart of the government’s long pursuit of a refinery, set out as early as 2008 in the National Oil and Gas Policy.
  • Why should Uganda invest in a fuel refinery?
  • As well as driving down the cost of petrol, diesel and other fuels, the refinery will become a vital cog in Uganda’s Energy Transition Plan. Despite the financial benefits, the project has received widespread criticism for displacing communities and disrupting wildlife patterns.
  • Does Uganda’s Oil project make sense?
  • For people in Uganda’s oil region, life now follows the rhythms of distant boardrooms. They are not the only ones wondering whether the project makes sense. By the time the first oil flows, in 2025, oil infrastructure will have uprooted 2,000 households and directly affected more than 20,000.
