  • What is the Uganda refinery project?
  • The Uganda Refinery Project includes: the storage terminal itself, for the refinery products located at Namwabula in Mpigi District. Alpha MBM Investments, an investment firm from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is now the lead partner in the oil refinery project.
  • Should Uganda invest in a 60,000 barrel oil refinery?
  • In picking a United Arab Emirates (UAE) firm as the lead developer and investor for its 60,000-barrels-per-day oil refinery, Uganda has yet again opted for an outlier with the financial muscle but no technical expertise or footprint in the development of downstream refining facilities for oil and gas.
  • Where is Uganda’s crude oil being pumped?
  • At another Ugandan oil field – still close to Lake Albert but 100km north-east of Kingfisher – dozens of earthmovers criss-cross a construction site for TotalEnergies’ processing facility. This is where the crude oil will be cleaned of impurities and separated from gas before being pumped to a refinery about 100km away.
  • 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.
