The Energy Year - Uganda 2022

Book excerpt: "Now is the time. Uganda is the right destination for investment” H.E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, President of the Republic of Uganda The Energy Year Uganda 2022 is a special edition celebrating Uganda’s 60th anniversary of independence and covering the unlocking of the country’s hydrocarbons and power sectors. This edition has been produced in partnership with Uganda’s State House, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Development, and the Petroleum Authority of Uganda. Following Uganda’s FID announcement in February 2022, The Energy Year Uganda 2022 analyses the latest developments and future prospects of the country’s nascent oil and gas sector, as well as its linkages with the power sector and wider economy, and portrays the projects championed by the key players of the Ugandan energy value chain. “Uganda is well on the road for its oil and gas resources to generate value for the country. The key drivers for the country’s value from these resources are through the participation of its people and its enterprises in the provision of goods and services, enhancing the linkages between oil and gas and other sectors of the economy, and the revenues to be generated when production of oil starts.” Ernest Rubondo, Executive Director, Petroleum Authority of Uganda The Energy Year Uganda 2022 also includes a map featuring Uganda’s planned oil and gas infrastructure and licences, as well as the East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) infrastructure. This second edition of The Energy Year’s Uganda series is the most updated in-depth analysis and comprehensive guide on the evolving Ugandan energy market – it underlines the key projects that will shape the Ugandan oil and gas value chain of the future, and identifies the country’s potential and untapped opportunities.
