  • Could Côte d'Ivoire's oil refinery boost exports?
  • Côte d’Ivoire’s state-owned oil refinery, the biggest in French-speaking West Africa with a refining capacity of 3.8m tonnes, could help generate revenues through exports to neighbouring countries. A conservative estimation puts production from the new block at 150, 000 bpd, says Robin Mills, CEO of Dubai-based consultancy Qamar Energy.
  • How many oilfields are there in Côte d'Ivoire?
  • Offshore oil was first discovered in the West African country in 1977, with the bulk of the oil and gas wells later drilled in shallow marine areas. The latest find is the first deep water commercial discovery in more than 20 years. To date, Côte d’Ivoire has identified 51 oilfields with four in production and 26 in exploration.
  • How much oil does Côte d'Ivoire produce?
  • Côte d’Ivoire currently produces around 50,000 bpd compared to Nigeria, Africa’s largest oil producer, which produces around 2.5m. The government has been on an investment drive in recent years in an attempt to diversify the economy away from an overreliance on cocoa and gold, by developing its mining and energy sectors.
  • Which companies have discovered oil in Ivory Coast?
  • International companies including French giant Total and Britain's Tullow Oil have also announced significant discoveries of Ivorian offshore oil reserves in recent years. Ivory Coast, which ambitions to become a "major" oil producer by 2023, announced Thursday a new discovery of oil and natural gas by Italian hydrocarbon giant ENI.
