Today @MEMD_Uganda in partnership with UNOC held a press conference to provide updates on the status of petroleum products supply, retail fuel prices, and key developments in Uganda’s oil and gas sector.

We reassure the public that Uganda continues to maintain stable fuel supplies despite ongoing global market disruptions affecting international petroleum supply chains.

@MEMD_Uganda further urged the public to avoid panic buying and disregard misleading information regarding fuel shortages.

[UNOC @UNOC_UG]

Today, 5 professionals from Uganda’s petroleum, water & waste sectors come together for an honest & thoughtful conversation about their careers, their industries & the communities they serve.

Representing UNOC was Commercial Manager, Edith Tushabe Atuhurira, who shared insights from her experience in Uganda’s growing oil and gas sector.

UNOC & partner Vitol have diversified sourcing away from the Arabian Gulf — now securing petroleum from West Africa, Europe, India & the Americas to guarantee uninterrupted supply.

Uganda is expanding its Jinja Storage Terminal from 30M to 40M litres & has partnered with Lake Victoria Logistics (Mahathi Infra Terminal) — a 70M-litre facility — to bolster inland supply resilience.

A 320M-litre Kampala Storage Terminal at Namwabula, Mpigi District is in development — a key hub linking the Uganda Refinery to a national multi-products pipeline distribution network.

[Tony Otoa @Comrade_Otoa]

We are underway with the media briefing by the Permanent Secretary of @MEMD_Uganda , @irenebateebe on the fuel supply situation in the country. In her statement, she has reassured the public that fuel supplies remain stable despite Middle East conflict disruptions affecting global oil supply chains. No cause for alarm.

On the issue of rising pump prices. She noted that they are being driven by global supply constraints, freight costs, exchange rate shifts & increased cross-border demand from neighbouring countries buying Uganda’s relatively cheaper fuel.

Team UNOC joined hundreds of supporters at the Childhood Cancer Colour Run 2026, organised by the Uganda Child Cancer Foundation.

The run brought together individuals and organisations in support of children bravely battling cancer and the families walking the journey with them.

We appreciate all colleagues who represented UNOC and took part in this meaningful cause.

UNOC’s EXCO participated in a high-level meeting where H.E. President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni met with renowned industrialist Aliko Dangote to discuss the proposed East African regional refinery initiative.

During the meeting, President Museveni emphasized that exporting crude oil without refining it would not make economic or strategic sense, as it would deny the country and the region the full benefits of the petroleum value chain.

Uganda expressed readiness to support the regional refinery initiative while continuing the development of the country’s own refinery project in Hoima.

[UNOC @UNOC_UG]

Catch Behind the Headlines tonight on UBC at 10:00PM with Rashid Musa Otika, Ag. General Manager, NPC at UNOC.

He will be breaking down what rising fuel costs mean for Uganda and where the burden ultimately lands.

[UNOC @UNOC_UG]

Today we celebrate the true heroes behind Ugandas oil and gas sector. We honour the teams that diligently keep operations running reliably, safely and efficiently. Happy Labour Day, Uganda.

[UNOC @UNOC_UG]

Government officials conducted a joint visit to Busia and Malaba border posts to assess and improve fuel truck clearance. The visit followed recent Cabinet discussions on Uganda’s petroleum supply.

Led by the @CEO_UNOC and URA Customs leadership, the team reviewed key processes including customs clearance, fuel marking, and biofuel blending. Engagements with agencies and service providers identified bottlenecks and agreed actions to improve efficiency.

The interventions aim to speed up truck turnaround, ensure timely fuel delivery, and strengthen national supply and distribution.

[UNOC @UNOC_UG]

A proud and inspiring day for UNOC. At the International Labour Day celebrations in Buikwe District, H.E. the President awarded Diamond Jubilee Medals to our Chief Commercial Officer, Gilbert Kamuntu, and @EACOP_’s Deputy Managing Director, John-Bosco Habumugisha, in recognition of their steadfast leadership and remarkable contribution to Uganda’s oil and gas sector.

Fuel is being supplied by UNOC, a government institution. We have records of those who purchase from UNOC and at what price. We will follow up to ensure there is no price distortion in the market. ~ Hon. David Bahati
