2 Outline 1. Ghana s Gas Industry Overview Value Chain, Key Players and Regulator Latest Initiatives 2. Ghana s Gas Profile Gas Reserves Gas Production Summary Current Sources Demand/Supply Deficit 3. Unlocking LNG import projects 4. Conclusion 2

3 Ghana s Gas Industry Overview Role The Ministry of Energy is responsible for energy policy formulation, monitoring and evaluation as well as supervision and coordination of activities of Energy Sector Agencies Vision Our Vision is to become an energy economy with reliable supply of high quality energy services for the Ghanaian economy and for export. Core functions related to the gas sub-sector: Translates Government s energy development agenda and policy directions contained in the national energy policy into strategies and programs; Ensure the reliable supply of affordable energy services to meet national demand and for export; 3

4 Ghana s Gas Industry Overview (Contd..) Gas Sub-sector Policies Revised Energy Sector Policy (2017) Upstream sub-sector Downstream sub-sector Power & Renewable sub-sector Gas Master Plan (2016) Natural Gas Pricing Policy (2012) 4

5 Ghana s Gas Industry Overview (Contd..) Key Policy Highlights and Goals (Gas Commercialization) Goal: Promotion of optimal gas exploitation and utilization for accelerated development. 5

6 Ghana s Gas Industry Overview (Contd..) Recommended Utilization Options in order of Priority from Gas Master Plan 1. Power Generation - Most commercially attractive with ready demand 2. Cement/Clinker Production - High level priority for cement is based on research work by KNUST 3. Industrial Co-Generation 4. CNG Vehicles 5. Petrochemical Synthesis 6

11 Ghana s Gas Profile Current Gas Sources Indigenous (from Ghana s oil fields) Imported Gas (from Nigeria through WAPCo) Both sources are currently providing approx. 210mmscfd Gas Sources Jubilee TEN Sankofa WAPCo Gas Sources - From 2018 Jubilee TEN Sankofa WAPCo 25% 18% 23% 0% 50% 9% 25% 50% 11

12 Ghana s Gas Industry Overview (Contd..) Ghana s Gas Resources Indigenous Jubilee (2015, max. 120 mmscfd, Current 100 mmscfd) TEN Field (2017, 50 mmscfd) Sankofa Field (2018, 180 mmscfd) HESS Field (expected in 2022, reserves of 370 MMBO & 650 BCFG) Imported WAGP Gas from Nigeria (Contracted Vol. 123 mmscfd, Current 60 mmscfd) 12

13 Ghana s Gas Profile Demand/Supply Deficit Year Demand Supply Deficit Demand, Supply And Deficit Projections Demand Supply Deficit Total Country Gas Supply Gap

14 Meeting the deficit - LNG Infrastructure Ghana has signed Agreements with: Gazprom & Others (Infrastructure and Product supply) Daily Contractual Rate - 240,000mmbtu Delivered gas price - $7.74/mmbtu FRU capacity - 20,000 m3 FSU capacity - 170,000 m3 Expected increase in Power Generation - 1,000MW Equatorial Guinea (Product supply Only) Ghana has signed a Heads-of-State agreement with Equatorial Guinea for the supply of between 150 and 200 million standard cubic feet (scf) of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) per day. Additionally: Import of 100MMSFCD ( 540MW CC capacity) from Nigeria (Gasol as the supplier via the WAGP) Mini LNG import systems sponsored by Sunon Asogli Power Plant and Trojan power plant, both IPPs in Tema. The mini LNG systems are expected to bring LNG from LNG carriers moored offshore, into the Tema port through smaller shuttle boats, requiring low draft to avoid dredging. 14

15 Unlocking LNG import projects - Regionalisation There is a political decision and instruments for the development of the regional market (ECOWAS Treaty and Protocol of Energy) Resources are complementary in the region which suggests strongly the benefits of an integration in a regional market (oil and gas in the east mainly and hydro in the west) Countries of the region face all the challenges of security of supply and the cost of access to electricity There are trading already ongoing in the region which demonstrates the capacity and willingness of countries to trade There is infrastructure being developed for regional trading 15

16 Unlocking LNG import projects - Creating Appropriate Regulatory Conditions 1. Appropriate legal framework (export of power is allowed by Electricity Act) 2. Regulatory framework has been established (licensing mechanism for authorization) 3. Available and reliable generation capacity 4. Available and reliable interconnections facilities 5. Existence of effective demands 6. Competitive cost/tariff of capacity and energy 16

17 Conclusion Huge potential for gas-to-power in West Africa Increasing supply deficit in the region Need for regionalization to make projects viable Need for appropriate policy and regulatory framework Governments and private sector can team up to meet growing demand for gas and power 17

18 Conclusion Industry is young with diverse opportunities Government and Agencies well positioned to facilitate a conducive business environment Democratic Governance with Strong legal System Joint venture Opportunities with wellestablished Ghanaian partners Business environment that ensures good returns on investment 18
