Ghanaians have been assured of an adequate fuel reserve against global shocks amid escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, which has raised fuel supply concerns.
The Acting CEO of the National Petroleum Authority (NPA) gave assurance when he briefed the Parliamentary Select Committee on Energy on Saturday, stating that the country has about a two-month fuel reserve.
Currently, the country holds over 200 million liters of petrol and 150 million liters of diesel in reserve. “I can assure the good people of Ghana that we have enough stock to last us beyond two months, and with all the ongoing efforts, we are confident that there will be no supply disruptions,” he stated.
Mr. Tameklo further indicated that vessels carrying petroleum products were already within Ghanaian waters.
He added that Nigeria’s Dangote Refinery was producing substantial volumes of petrol and diesel, which would further support Ghana’s national demand.
