He clarified that the main goal of their study visit was to evaluate the effectiveness of Ghana’s other pricing mechanisms as well as the country’s Unified Petroleum Price Scheme.
In the course of their stay in Ghana and with the NPA, many formal engagements and sessions were held with technical persons at the Authority, focusing on a wide range of subjects on relevant aspects of Ghana’s petroleum value chain.
Presentations were given on a range of topics, including the goals of Ghana’s pricing policy, the Unified Petroleum Price Fund (UPPF), and the legislative framework governing petroleum regulation.
When the delegation visited Ghana’s Ministry of Energy, they were given a tour of the country’s downstream petroleum policy.
On behalf of the Minister of Energy, they were welcomed by Mrs. Wilhelmina Asamoah, the Chief Director.
In order to familiarize themselves with some of the day-to-day activities of the NPA and other important players in Ghana’s petroleum downstream, the group also started field visits to the BOST ports in Tema and Akosombo.
