  • What is a modular mini refinery?
  • Modular mini refineries are best utilized in emerging economies and in remote locations where gasoline, diesel and fuel oil are needed. The local crude oil is normally your lowest cost feed stock because the transportation costs are minimized. Mini refineries with heavy crudes and low API gravity produce more fuel oil and less naphtha and diesel.
  • Does Uganda need a refinery?
  • 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. All petroleum products consumed in Uganda are currently imported from overseas through the ports of Mombasa in Kenya and Dar es Salaam in Tanzania.
  • 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.
