In Ghana we are present in the exploration sector, in refining and in the chemicals sector. With Offshore Cape Three Points (OCTP), the only gas development project entirely dedicated to the domestic Sub-Saharan Africa market, the country guarantees reliable gas supplies, making a significant contribution to energy access and local economic development. In Africa we strengthen and diversify our traditional portfolio to exploit natural gas, we launch initiatives based on the circular economy model and we promote development initiatives across the continent to foster lasting growth.
Activity start date: 2009 - present
Exploration activities in Ghana are concentrated off the coasts of the country. The Offshore Cape Three Points (OCTP) exploration project makes it possible to sell gas on the local market at a competitive price, satisfying 65% of the country’s energy demand. As well as eliminating fugitive emissions of methane, the extraction of non-associated petroleum gas permitted by OCTP offers additional environmental benefits because it makes it possible to run the new power plants on gas and to replace crude oil with gas in existing plants. We also participate in an additional exploration license in the offshore CTP 4 block, where we develop the wells discovered using the infrastructure already in situ.
In order to make use of local resources, we have also launched initiatives to provide training to micro-enterprises and access to water resources, education and healthcare, also through the distribution of improved stoves, with the aim of guaranteeing the population access to more efficient energy sources, which significantly reduce wood or charcoal consumption in cooking.

The integrated project off the west coast of Ghana for the domestic market started production early.
In the Western region and neighbouring areas, we support communities in starting new sustainable, pro-growth activities.
The project facilitates students' access to the labour market and microcredit initiatives to boost cooperation.
We select graduates in science, arts, engineering, English and other subjects to support primary and secondary school teachers.
