People come to me to buy oil. Others come to sell it. I am not a politician. I am a businessman shaping deals, unlocking value, and moving energy across borders.
Like Marc Rich, who broke the grip of Big Oil and birthed a new global marketplace,
Norway's Oil Giant Gives Up on Power.
Equinor (NYSE:EQNR) has officially shelved its 2030 renewables target, telling investors at its New York capital markets day that it would allocate 90% of capital expenditures to oil and gas projects, up from a 50% pledge a year ago.
@KojoForex People don’t disappear for 5 - 10 years planning to come back embarrassed and asking for help unless life has dealt them some hard blows.
Maybe they came to you because, in their moment of darkness, you looked like light. And sometimes, that alone is worth something.
@KojoForex Sometimes life humbles people in brutal ways. It could be medical bills for a sick parent, surgery for a child, losing a job, eviction, depression, debt, business collapse, or simply trying to survive another month without falling apart.
By shifting the focus from simple ownership changes to a structural overhaul, the nation could address the refinery’s inability to operate at optimal throughput, a failure that currently undermines the stability of Ghana’s domestic fuel supply.
The partial privatization of the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR) is a viable policy option that warrants serious consideration, provided it is executed as a strategic recapitalization rather than a mere asset disposal.
The urgency of this proposal stems from a pragmatic assessment of TOR’s historical underperformance, which I identify not as a lack of relevance, but as a result of cyclical governance failures, significant maintenance backlogs, and persistent working-capital constraints.
Ghana Boycotts London Energy Summit Over African Exclusion
Ghana’s Energy Chamber has officially withdrawn from the Africa Energies Summit in London, citing discrimination and the exclusion of African professionals from key decision-making roles.
The decision, disclosed on April 2, follows similar moves by Mozambique and petroleum ministers from the African Petroleum Producers Organisation, who in March also signalled plans to boycott the summit scheduled to take place in London from May 12 to 14, 2026.
Without urgent intervention to create an attractive fiscal environment, the nation risks being sidelined as a late-cycle jurisdiction. The failure to incentivize new exploration is effectively turning a manageable decline into a strategic threat to the country’s energy security.
A significant driver of this decline is the lack of new exploration and development activities, with Ghana failing to sign a single new petroleum agreement since 2018.
This six-year stagnation in new investment, occurring alongside consecutive years of falling output, creates
The severity of this decline is underscored by a persistent contraction in output, which has slumped from approximately 71.4 million barrels in 2019 to roughly 37.3 million barrels in 2025.

a precarious environment.
Drawing parallels to global trends in basins like the UK, North Sea and Malaysia, the Chamber warns that this specific combination of inactivity and declining production typically heralds a rapid, irreversible contraction.
I recently had a thought-provoking interview with the Viory team, headquartered in Abu Dhabi, UAE, where we discussed our @energy_chamber decision to boycott the London summit over Africa’s underrepresentation.
I hope you find the discussion insightful and engaging.
