Albertine Graben Refinery Consortium (AGRC), is a consortium of 4 international companies which agreed in 2018 with the government of Uganda, to invest in, construct, operate and co-own the Uganda Oil Refinery on the Eastern shore of Lake Albert.[1][2] It consists of General Electric of the United States, Yaatra Ventures LLC of the United States, Intracontinent Asset Holdings Limited of Mauritius and Saipem SPA of Italy.
Overview
Ugandan government geologists estimate Uganda’s oil reserves at 6.5 billion barrels, of which approximately 1.7 billion are considered recoverable. In 2016, the selected lead investor in the refinery project, RT Global Resources of Russia, pulled out of negotiations. Negotiations with the alternative investor, a consortium led by SK Engineering of South Korea also broke down.[3]
In 2018, new bids for a lead investor in the refinery attracted over 40 applicants. The second round of selection, identified the Albertine Graben Refinery Consortium as the entity offering the best terms for construction of the Uganda Oil Refinery, estimated at US$4.27 billion.[3][4]
