Brahms To Build A Modular Refinery in Guinea-Conakry - Africa’s premier report on the oil, gas and energy landscape.

Brahms To Build A Modular Refinery in Guinea-Conakry

Africa Finance Corporation has signed a Joint Development Agreement with Brahms Oil Refineries Limited to act as co-developer on the development and subsequent financing of a petroleum storage and associated refinery project in Kamsar, Guinea-Conakry.

 This will include a 76Million litre crude oil storage terminal; 114.2Million litre storage terminal for refined products; ancillary support transportation infrastructure, and 12,000 barrels oil per day modular refining facility.

Through this joint development, AFC will invest in the project development workstreams that should ensure the Project reaches financial close in 2020.

Brahms Oil Refineries is a part of Brahms Group, a Switzerland based diversified company with a strong industrial & international finance network and an excellent knowledge of Sub-Saharan Africa.Once operational, the Project will have a refinery capacity that is the equivalent of one-third of the country’s demand for refined products, thereby reducing its reliance on imported refined products, improving the country’s balance of payments, and reducing foreign currency demand. It will also allow for direct & indirect job creation and enhance the development and productivity of other sectors, especially mining, which today accounts for 15.3% of the country’s GDP but could contribute even more if the country had the necessary infrastructure to maximise and locally beneficiate its natural resources. The Project is strategically located in Kamsar, which is one of the larger mining regions in the country.
To increase its impact on Guinea, AFC is considering several projects in the country to create an integrated ecosystem. This would include, alongside this Project, a 33MW solar project port, and other mining projects, all of which will complement AFC’s earlier investment in Alufer’s Bel Air bauxite mine.
