- Does Uganda have a market for edible oils?
- Uganda has a large domestic market with demand for edible oils expanding rapidly (Uganda’s imports of edible oils increased more than five-fold to over $ 30 million in 2017). Member of EAC, which had recorded ever imports of edible oils in 2017, with 50% growth reaching nearly $1 billion.
- How much does it cost to build a refinery in Uganda?
- In April 2018, the government and the AGRC reached an agreement to construct a 60,000 barrels-per-day refinery in Hoima, in mid-western Uganda at a cost of US $4.27bn.
- 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.
- Which country imports the most edible oils in the world?
- Member of EAC, which had recorded ever imports of edible oils in 2017, with 50% growth reaching nearly $1 billion. Uganda has a strong track in the production of agricultural products and is the most open trading country in the region.
