The Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) is seeking to strengthen its technical and commercial capacity to take on greater responsibility in Ghana’s petroleum exploration and production industry.
Chief Executive of GNPC, Kwame Ntow Amoah, said the corporation’s long-term ambition was to develop into a world-class operator capable of managing complex petroleum assets and delivering sustainable value to the country.
“Our long-term ambition remains to transform GNPC from an emerging operator to a world class operator – technically proficient, commercially competitive and able to manage complex petroleum assets to deliver sustainable value for Ghana,” he said.
Speaking at LCCE 2026 in Takoradi, Mr Amoah highlighted the expanding operational role of GNPC Explorco as part of the corporation’s strategy to increase its participation across the petroleum value chain.
He also outlined plans to establish new commercial structures aimed at creating opportunities for greater Ghanaian participation and ownership in the petroleum industry.
The strategy is expected to strengthen local involvement in petroleum exploration and production while positioning GNPC to take on more operational and commercial responsibilities.
