A delegation from Ghana’s National Petroleum Authority met with management of Techno Oil Ltd. in the Nigerian city of Lagos. The meeting was aimed at collaborating on LPG and cylinder marketing in Ghana.
Leading the delegation was Sheila Abiemo, who told reporters that the Ghanaian government was sourcing ideas from some countries, including Nigeria, to help it to formulate policies on LPG gas and cylinder distributions to end users.
Abiemo is the Head of Research and Technical Affairs in the NPA, the regulatory body in Ghana’s emerging downstream sector.
“We are developing a national policy on LPG in Ghana and we’re seeking a Nigerian perspective because we’re impressed with the strides made by some Nigerian companies in the LPG market.
Our desire is to raise the volume of LPG consumption by up to 50% in Ghana by 2030 because LPG is the way to go in domestic energy needs,” Abiemo said,
