I haven’t signed the contract with Genser – Minister of Energy
The Ministry of Energy has rejected the claim that the sector minister, Dr. Mathew Opoku Prempeh, has signed a contract with Genser to build a second Gas processing plant with a higher capacity.
The Ghana Gas Senior Staff Association in a statement dated January 9, 2023, called on the President, Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to intervene in the ministerial agreement on the Genser agreement.
Senior staff have expressed their displeasure at the way the Minister has dealt with the Gas industry.
“Ghanaian Gas workers are shocked to hear that Genser is planning to build a Gas Processing Plant with the source of raw gas being the Jubilee field. Therefore, they are asking the president to intervene because it is the dream of the President to have a second Gas processing plant,” the Association said in a statement.
In a separate statement dated January 10, 2023, the Ministry of Energy, said, “The Minister wishes to state categorically that he and anyone acting on behalf of the Minister did not sign any contracts with GENSER. The only contracts signed with Genser on record are GNGC and GNPC”.
According to the Ministry of Energy, the issue is being investigated by the Parliamentary Committee on Mines and Energy.
“This matter is being investigated by the Parliamentary Committee on Mines and Energy. The Ministry considers the legal consequences discussed in the situation. The President of the Republic further referred the matter to the Ministry, the Petroleum Commission, and the Energy Commission for investigation. The report on this has been sent to His Excellency the President, ” said the statement.
