  • What is the Uganda refinery project?
  • Introduction to the Uganda Refinery Project, September 2013 Uganda’s Refinery involves the development of a greenfield oil refinery, with a capacity of 60,000 BPD in Uganda, and the associated downstream infrastructure (the Project). The Project will be owned by the selected firm/consortium and the GOU in a 60:40 partnership.
  • Who owns Uganda refinery?
  • The Refinery project will be a private sector led project, with Government’s share held by the Uganda National Oil Company, through its subsidiary Uganda Refinery Holding Company. East African Community partner states (Kenya and Rwanda) and TotalEnergies Exploration and Production Uganda TEPU have expressed interest in holding shares.
  • Where is Uganda’s only oil refinery located?
  • Since some of the largest oil fields are in the Kaiso-Tonya area in Hoima District, the area was selected for Uganda’s only oil refinery. The strategy is to build a refinery that meets the petroleum products needs of Uganda and its regional neighbors, with any remaining to be exported.
  • 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.
