She said the licences awarded under the 2022/2023 Mini Bid Round and the 2024 Licensing Round are expected to boost exploration activity, attract investment, accelerate the development of Nigeria’s hydrocarbon resources and support the country’s energy security and economic growth.
Eyesan said the awards are aligned with the federal government’s target of increasing crude oil production to 2 million barrels per day by 2027 and 3 million barrels per day by 2030.
She also urged the new licence holders to move quickly to develop their assets or risk forfeiting them under the Petroleum Industry Act’s “drill or drop” provision, which allows the regulator to revoke undeveloped licences.
The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has signed an intergovernmental agreement backing the Nigeria-Morocco Atlantic Gas Pipeline (AAGP), Morocco’s National Office of Hydrocarbons and Mines (ONHYM) and the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Ltd said in a joint statement on Sunday.
The agreement was signed by the heads of state of participating ECOWAS member countries during the ECOWAS summit in Freetown, Sierra Leone.
The statement said the pipeline is designed to transport up to 30 billion cubic metres (bcm) of natural gas annually from Nigeria and other West African producers through 13 West African countries to Morocco.
It said 15 bcm of gas a year will be supplied to Moroccan and European markets through the existing pipeline linking Morocco and Spain.
“The AAGP is a transformative regional infrastructure initiative designed to unlock West Africa’s vast natural gas resources, connect them to major demand centres, integrate African energy markets and establish a strategic development corridor linking West Africa, the Sahel, Morocco and Europe,” the agencies said.
The agreement gives effect to the approval granted at the 66th Ordinary Session of the ECOWAS Authority of Heads of State and Government in Abuja in December 2024, the statement said.
It also concludes the institutional process coordinated by ECOWAS following the 2022 memorandum of understanding between Nigeria and Morocco and reaffirms the participating states’ commitment to the project.
The statement said the agreement marks the start of the next implementation phase, which will include establishing the project company, to be headquartered in Casablanca, and the Pipeline Higher Authority (PHA), the project’s governing body, to be based in Abuja.
“These institutional milestones will pave the way for investor mobilisation and the preparation of the Final Investment Decision (FID),” ONHYM and NNPC said.
The final step will be a signing ceremony in Morocco, where Morocco and Mauritania will jointly sign the agreement in the presence of Nigerian President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the statement said.
The project was initiated under former Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari and Morocco’s King Mohammed VI and continues to have the support of President Tinubu, it added.
According to the statement, front-end engineering design (FEED) studies have been completed, route reconnaissance surveys finalised, and environmental and social impact studies advanced. The agencies also said key legal, regulatory and commercial frameworks have been put in place.
The Nigeria-Morocco Atlantic Gas Pipeline will run from Nigeria to Morocco through 13 Atlantic coastal countries, with interconnections to supply landlocked Sahel states.
The Africa Centre for Energy Policy (ACEP), a policy think tank in Ghana, has urged the government to base decisions on Ghana’s proposed second Gas Processing Plant (GPP2) on reliable gas supply, credible financing, and proven technical capacity rather than political considerations.
According to ACEP, while the project has the potential to strengthen Ghana’s energy security, reduce gas flaring, and improve fuel supply for thermal power generation, its success will depend on whether the country can secure sufficient gas volumes, attract sustainable financing, and ensure the project is executed by technically competent partners.
ACEP stressed that discussions surrounding GPP2 should focus on the country’s long-term national interest rather than political preferences, warning that infrastructure of such strategic importance requires careful planning and transparent decision-making.

The policy institute noted that Ghana’s existing Atuabo Gas Processing Plant has played a significant role in supporting domestic power generation, but growing demand for natural gas makes additional processing capacity necessary.
However, ACEP cautioned that expanding processing infrastructure without guaranteed gas supply commitments could leave the new facility underutilised and undermine its commercial viability.
“Building a gas processing plant without secured volumes risks creating an expensive, underutilised asset,” Kodzo Yaotse, Head of Petroleum and Conventional Energy at ACEP, said in an interview monitored by this portal.
He also emphasised that financing arrangements must be transparent and sustainable to avoid placing unnecessary financial burdens on the country.
ACEP recommended integrating upstream petroleum partners, including operators of the Jubilee Field and adjacent fields, into the financing structure to help guarantee feedstock supply.
The organisation further argued that technical capability should be a key criterion in selecting any partner for the project. It added that the overriding objective should be to ensure GPP2 delivers value for money while strengthening Ghana’s gas-to-power strategy and overall energy security.
Ghana should position itself as the downstream petroleum and logistics hub for West Africa, recognised for reliability, efficiency, innovation and investment, Dr. Patrick K. Ofori, Chief Executive Officer of the Chamber of Bulk Oil Distributors (CBOD), has said.
Ofori said Ghana should pursue an ambitious goal of becoming the region’s leading downstream petroleum and logistics hub through stronger collaboration between government and the private sector.
“Our goal should not simply be to keep pace with change. Our goal should be to position Ghana as the downstream petroleum and logistics hub for West Africa,” he said.
He said the ambition was achievable if government and the private sector continued to work together with a shared sense of purpose.
Speaking at the 7th Ghana International Petroleum Conference (GHiPCON) in Accra on the theme, “Building Resilience Through Policy, Innovation and Investment for Growth,” Ofori said recent geopolitical tensions that disrupted oil supplies, volatile exchange rates and shifting energy markets had shown that resilience was no longer simply about responding to crises.
Instead, he said, resilience requires anticipating risks, preparing for them, adapting to changing conditions and emerging stronger.
“Resilience is not measured by how we perform when conditions are favourable; it is measured by how prepared we are when they are not. That is the challenge before us today, and it is one we must address together,” he said.
Ofori said building resilience should be anchored on three priorities: policy, innovation and investment.
On policy, he said businesses thrive where policies are consistent, regulations are transparent and institutions are predictable.
“A stable policy environment encourages investment, promotes healthy competition, protects consumers and gives businesses the confidence to plan for the future,” he said.
On innovation, Ofori said technological advances were transforming every aspect of the downstream petroleum industry, from digital systems and smarter logistics to automation, predictive analytics, artificial intelligence and cleaner technologies.
He said innovation was helping the industry improve efficiency, strengthen safety, reduce costs and make better decisions.
On investment, Ofori said resilience depends on modern infrastructure. He called for increased investment in storage facilities, strategic petroleum reserves, local refining capacity, transport corridors and the road networks linking ports, depots and markets.
“These investments will improve supply reliability, lower logistics costs, create jobs, stimulate industrialisation and strengthen Ghana’s energy security,” he said.
Ofori said CBOD remained committed to working closely with government, regulators, industry players, development partners and the wider private sector to strengthen Ghana’s downstream petroleum sector.

Development of the field will be carried out by Zueitina Oil Company, the operator, with production expected to begin as quickly as possible because of the site’s proximity to existing surface facilities.
Ghana’s Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Dr. John Abdulai Jinapor, has announced that the government will begin delivering 55,000 solar home systems to selected government institutions next month as part of efforts to reduce their dependence on the national electricity grid.
He made the announcement at the opening of the two-day 7th Ghana International Petroleum Conference (GHiPCON) at the Palms Convention Centre in Accra.
According to Dr. Jinapor, the initiative forms part of the government’s broader strategy to address rising electricity demand while advancing Ghana’s clean energy and climate objectives.
By equipping selected public institutions with solar power systems, the government aims to ease pressure on the national grid, improve energy efficiency, and enhance the reliability of electricity supply.
The minister said growing electricity consumption, driven by population growth, urbanisation, and expanding industrial activity, requires a diversified energy mix that incorporates more renewable energy sources alongside conventional power generation.
The planned deployment also aligns with Ghana’s renewable energy agenda, which seeks to increase the share of clean energy in the country’s electricity mix, improve energy access, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The announcement comes as Ghana continues to pursue its energy transition strategy, balancing investments in its petroleum sector with efforts to expand renewable energy generation and strengthen long-term energy security.
Ghana’s downstream petroleum regulator, the National Petroleum Authority (NPA), has urged African petroleum sector regulators to continuously review their policies to ensure they remain responsive to emerging technologies, changing market conditions and evolving environmental considerations.
Speaking at the opening of the 7th Ghana International Petroleum Conference (GHiPCON 2026), NPA Chief Executive Officer Godwin Edudzi Tameklo Esq. said regulators and industry players must adapt to a rapidly changing global energy landscape.
He called on industry stakeholders to invest in operational excellence, safety, research and development, workforce capacity and digital transformation to remain competitive.
Addressing the conference on the theme, “Building a Resilient Downstream: Policy, Innovation and Investment for Growth,” Tameklo said recent tensions in the Middle East, which disrupted fuel supplies and pushed up pump prices, had highlighted the need for stronger and more resilient downstream petroleum systems.
“This year’s GHiPCON is more crucial than ever as we seek innovative solutions to attract investment, build buffers against external shocks in the fuel supply chain and mitigate their impact sustainably for our governments and people,” he said.
“Resilience means ensuring reliable fuel supply, strengthening energy security, improving infrastructure, enhancing operational efficiency, and building institutions capable of responding effectively to changing market conditions,” he added.
Tameklo said sustained investment by both the public and private sectors would be essential to expand, modernize and improve the competitiveness of the downstream petroleum industry.
“Without sustained public and private investment, it will be difficult to build the infrastructure, technology and human capital needed to support Ghana’s long-term energy aspirations,” he said.
He said the NPA continued to implement policy and technology-driven initiatives to regulate, supervise and monitor downstream petroleum service providers, improve compliance, ensure a reliable fuel supply, guarantee fuel quality and promote investment across the sector.
The two-day conference has brought together policymakers, industry executives, investors, academics and other stakeholders from 25 countries to discuss regulatory reforms, infrastructure development, energy security, financing opportunities, local content, regional trade, technological innovation, environmental sustainability and the role of the private sector in driving growth.
Ghana’s Minister for Energy and Green Transition, John Abdulai Jinapor, reaffirmed the government’s commitment to expanding the country’s petroleum sector through increased oil and gas exploration and production.

Ghana’s Minister for Energy and Green Transition, John Abdulai Jinapor, on Thursday urged stakeholders in the downstream petroleum sector to work closely with the government to build a more resilient industry amid renewed geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.
Jinapor said Ghana had avoided the fuel supply disruptions experienced by some countries in the sub-region in recent years, including during the recent conflict involving Israel, Iran and the United States, but stressed that stronger collaboration was needed to safeguard the country’s energy security.
“Let’s continue to work together so that we can build a resilient system. When the U.S.-Israel-Iran conflict began in the Middle East, many people were anxious about Ghana’s fuel supply situation.
However, because of the measures we took, and the work that had already been done, we were able to weather the situation,” Jinapor said at the opening of the 7th Ghana International Petroleum Conference in Accra.
Malaysia’s state energy company Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS) said its subsidiary, PETRONAS LNG Ltd. (PLL), has signed a seven-year liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply agreement with Japan’s Shizuoka Gas Co., Ltd.
Under the agreement, which begins in 2032, PLL will supply approximately 0.84 million metric tonnes (MMT) of LNG to Shizuoka Gas, PETRONAS said in a statement.
The agreement extends a commercial relationship between the two companies that began three decades ago and is aimed at supporting Japan’s long-term energy security while providing greater flexibility in LNG supply.
The agreement was signed in Kuala Lumpur by PETRONAS Executive Vice President and Chief Executive Officer of Gas and Maritime Business, Datuk Adif Zulkifli, and Shizuoka Gas President Yoshitake Matsumoto.
PETRONAS said the deal would leverage its diversified global LNG portfolio to provide reliable and flexible supplies as customers seek greater resilience amid changing global energy market conditions.
The signing ceremony also marked the 30th anniversary of PETRONAS’ first LNG cargo delivery to Shizuoka Gas.
The two companies said they would also explore opportunities to collaborate on decarbonisation initiatives across the LNG value chain as part of efforts to strengthen their long-standing partnership.
PETRONAS is one of the world’s largest LNG suppliers, exporting liquefied natural gas to customers across Asia and other international markets through its global production and trading portfolio.
Speaking to reporters during the inspection, Jinapor said measures would be put in place to minimise disruptions to electricity supply while the work is carried out.
“As we enter the final phase of construction from Monday, July 20, 2026, some customers may experience temporary and localised power interruptions to allow these essential works to be carried out safely,” he said.
“These temporary inconveniences are necessary to deliver a stronger, more reliable electricity network that will support the continued growth and development of Kumasi and the Ashanti Region.”
