TOR engages CSOs on recovery plans as refinery pushes transformation agenda

Tema Oil Refinery (TOR) engaged Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) operating in Ghana's energy sector on Thursday, July 23, regarding the refinery's transformation and recovery efforts. Managing Director of TOR, Edmond Kombat, outlined key milestones achieved under the recovery programme and highlighted strategic priorities. Mr. Kombat stated that management remains committed to repositioning TOR as a key pillar of Ghana's energy security and industrial development. He explained that the refinery's recovery strategy focuses on restoring operations, improving efficiency, and strengthening its capacity to support the country's downstream petroleum sector.

The engagement provided updates on progress towards restoring the refinery to full operational capacity and a platform for discussions on the critical role of a fully operational refinery. Following discussions, CSO representatives toured the refinery's operational facilities. Participating organisations commended TOR's management for its openness in sharing information and noted that sustained stakeholder engagement and transparency would be essential in building public confidence and supporting the successful implementation of the refinery's transformation agenda.
