Refining process
- Conversion of crude petroleum into useful petroleum products Refinery design is influenced by type of crude oil and expected products Lighter crude easier to refine than heavy crude oil Refinery comprises of several units Each refinery has a unique design as well as operating characteristics

Background contd
Key drivers for refinery design
Ugandas crude oil is medium - light and sweet. Sulphur content 0.1 0.2% and API gravity 20 330 Petroleum product market demand is diesel driven with a ratio of 2:1 (diesel : gasoline) Region boasts of growing product market

Background contd
Ugandas demand for petroleum products is about 30,000 bbl/day The region product consumption is about 200,000 bbl/day with a growth rate of 7%. The East African region has only one refinery of 70,000 bbl/day at Mombasa operating at half capacity. Product importation is faced with several challenges:
Reduced security of supply High import bill (est. 2 billion n USD)
There exists a Regional Refineries Development Strategy to boost the regions refining capacity

Backgroundcontd
The National Oil and Gas Policy (2008)
The National Oil and Gas Policys goal is to use the countrys oil and gas resources to contribute to early achievement of poverty eradication and create lasting value to society The policy provides for ;9 Plans to undertake medium and large scale refining to the satisfaction of national and regional petroleum products requirements in line with the countrys policy of value addition. 9 Optimal production of the countrys oil and gas resources through cost effectiveness
Building a refinery in Uganda is in line objective No. 4 of the Policy which is to promote valuable utilization of the countrys oil and gas resources.

Study analysed the option of crude export pipeline Vs refinery development. It was concluded that refinery development is more economically feasible and beneficial to Uganda.
11
The growing national and regional product demand is one of the key drivers for the refinery size and design options Product demand forecast to circa 370,000 BOPD by 2030 for the EAC region

9 Ensure security of supply for petroleum products 9 Boost the regions refining capacity 9 Improving the countrys balance of payment by reducing the petroleum products import bill 9 Enable rational exploitation of the resource to support sustainable development
9 Contribution to the countrys growing energy requirement and mix (source of HFO and LPG) 9 Creation of jobs for Ugandans and transfer of Technology in the refining and associated industries 9 A refinery is a strategic development that will significantly enhance the competitiveness of the nation and the East African region at large.

Refinery Ownership
Refinery will be developed on a Private Public Partnership (PPP) basis through a joint venture company with a proposed 40:60 sharing between public and private entities, respectively Higher participation share (60%) provides confidence to investors for funding and also operation of the industry. EAC Partner states have been proposed to participate with up to 10 % out of the 40% public shares. Consultations with the Partner States have commenced to establish the best participation arrangements. A special purpose vehicle (Refinery company) will be formed to take forward the development and operation

Capacity development
Government recognises the need to develop human resource capacity to handle the new areas related to refining. A total of six officers have so far trained at Masters Level in Refinery Design and Operations in the UK. Three officers have commenced training at Masters Level in refinery and pipeline related areas in the UK. There is need for capacity building for artisans and technicians who will be required at the construction stage of the refinery. The Ministry plans to engage Uganda Petroleum Institute of Kigumba (UPIK) and other institutions of higher learning to consider incorporation of refining course units in their curriculum.

Challenges/constraints
i. Anxiety among the PAPs in refinery land; The residents in the refinery land are very anxious about the planned compensation/resettlement ii. Public anxiety; There is alot of public anxiety regarding the overall refinery development. This is being addressed through sensitisation programmes with relevant audiences such as journalists, Members of Parliament, etc. iii. Misinformation from NGOs; They tell communities that Government is out to grab their land without adequate compensation undermine Government efforts of sensitizing communities iv. Limited expertise in the country; Refining is a new area, and there is therefore need for the industry to develop enmasse capacity among the general public through knolwledge transfer and trainings

CONCLUDING REMARKS
i. ii. Governments policy is to add value to the crude oil resource discovered in the country and this will be dependent on the confirmation of reserves. The feasibility study for refining demonstrated that the refinery was more viable compared to a crude export pipeline
iii. The growing national and regional petroleum products market provides a significant opportunity for the development of a refinery in Uganda. iv. Government has progressed significantly in the refinery development plans. v. Efforts from different stakeholders to support the development is required given its benefits to the country. vi. Government is prioritising the development of infrastructure required to develop the oil and gas resources discovered in the Albertine Graben. 25
