Waraga-1: 33.80 API , flowed 12,050 bopd

Four discoveries namely Mputa, Kajubirizi (Kingfisher), Kasamene and Nzizi at Field Development Stage.

These fields (Mputa, Kajubirizi & Kasamene) hold in excess of 700 million barrels recoverable reserves

Type of crude is 30-34 API low sulphur, waxy crude, Pour point of ~40 degrees Celsius.

Kingfisher: 33 API , flowed 14,000 bopd.

Exploration

• Exploration continues in Exploration Areas 1, 4B and 5

• Appraisal is being undertaken on the discoveries made in

Exploration Areas 1 and 2

Development

• Exploration Areas 2 and 3A are at the development stage

• Draft Field Development Plans have been submitted for

Kingfisher, Kasamene and Nzizi discoveries

CURRENT STATUSCURRENT STATUS



15

DEVELOPMENT: Integrated Power Project (IPP)

The gas to power

concept delivers gas

from Nzizi discovery to

fuel a 50MW power

plant, supplemented by

test crude from EWT



16

DEVELOPMENT: Extended Well Testing (EWT)

Longer testing operations allows for

larger area of investigation.

Improved understanding of STOIIP

Testing without flaring

Enabler for testing in sensitive

environments and close to communities

Establishes early production experience:

Essential input into overall development

Transportation schemes. Essential for

Production Infrastructure



17

DEVELOPMENT: Basin wide Development

Central Hub being considered

Loading Hub to refinery and to the Market

Source: Draft report of feasibility study on in-country refining



18

DEVELOPMENT: Value Addition through Refining

Feasibility study for refining in the Country undertaken.

Report being discussed

Recommends location, size, configuration financing options and market for the products

3.1 Energy Policy3.1 Energy Policy

Key Policy objectives from the mid 1980s were covered in the Energy Policy and were;

1. Capacity building and institutional development,

2. Investment promotion through acquisition of field geological, geophysical and geochemical data and attraction of oil companies to invest; and

3. Monitoring compliance of agreed work programs, budgets and environment protection.

3. THE NATIONAL OIL AND GAS POLICY FOR UGANDA (1)


1. Institutional Development2. Size of Reserves3. Oil and Gas Revenue Management4. Impact of Oil and Gas Activities5. Contribution of Oil and Gas Resources to the Energy Mix6. Investment Promotion7. National Participation8. Public Anxiety and Expectations

20

3.2 Issues3.2 Issues

Confirmation of commercially exploitable quantities of oil and gas raises the following key issues:



21

To deal with the emerging issues, a new policy, the National Oil and Gas Policy for Uganda has been put in place.

The Policy was formulated through a wide consultative process and approved by Cabinet Feb 2008

The goal of the policy is; ‘to use the country’s oil and gas resources to contribute to early achievement of poverty eradication and create lasting value to society’

3.3 Guiding Principles3.3 Guiding Principles

1. Using finite resources to create lasting benefit to society. 2. Efficient resource management.3. Transparency and accountability.4. Competitiveness and productivity.5. Protection of environment and conservation of biodiversity.6. Spirit of co-operation.7. Capacity and institution building.



3.4 Implementation of Policy has commenced;3.4 Implementation of Policy has commenced; Drafting of new petroleum legislation to operationalise policy. Support for the introduction of training courses focusing on petroleum

industry done. BSc Petroleum Geoscience at Makerere, Artisan and technical training at Uganda Petroleum Institute, Kigumba.

Studies undertaken on refining in Uganda. Communication Strategy for oil and gas is being developed. Close monitoring of environment and biodiversity being undertaken. New institutions are being put in place. Local content study being undertaken to ensure optimum national

participation in oil and gas activities.

Over US$900m invested in seismic and drilling of wells since 1998.

Bigger investments required to appraise and develop discovered oil and gas fields as well as infrastructure for transportation and refining.

Investments will require developing and ensuring a conducive environment for sustaining the required levels of investment.

4. STATUS OF INVESTMENT IN THE SECTOR (1)


4. STATUS OF INVESTMENT IN THE SECTOR (2)


Participation in licenses for the new and relinquished acreages after formulation of new legislation.

Joint Ventures and farm in arrangements in existing licences.

Capital for the emerging infrastructure such as refining and transportation of petroleum commodities and products

Service provision and contracts in the fields of Engineering, Procurement, Construction, Environmental consultancy, etc, for the upstream and midstream facilities.

Power generation by Independent Power Producers.

5. INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN THE OIL AND GAS SECTOR


26

1. Petroleum exploration in Uganda has been ongoing since early 1920s.

2. Commercially Exploitable Reserves of oil have now been confirmed in Uganda.

3. Government has put in place a policy to guide development of the sector.

4. Implementation of Policy has commenced;

5. The oil industry in Uganda has potential of providing a lot of investment opportunities to oil companies and other investors in the industry.

6. CONCLUSION

developments in uganda’s oil and gas sector and opportunities for investment
