Uganda seeks to expand crude oil discoveries with more explorations in north and northeast
Uganda has five basins where hydrocarbon potential is suspected, with only one, the Albertine, successfully explored so far, the energy ministry says. The two oil fields in the Albertine basin – Tilenga and Kingfisher – are majority-owned by TotalEnergies with a 56.7 per cent stake, while China’s CNOOC and the Uganda national oil company UNOC own the remaining share.
