Vukoil

Oil-Gas & Chemicals

Oil and gas discoveries in the east of the country give the DRC the second largest crude oil reserves in Central and Southern Africa. The DRC has proven reserves of 180 million barrels, though estimates of total petroleum reserves exceed 5 billion barrels.

Along with large recently identified oil fields, the DRC may hold as many as 30 billion cubic meters of methane and natural gas in the three major petroleum deposits. While the methane gas poses a threat to populations along its shores, this gas can be trapped and converted to electricity. Vukoil will focus on refined petroleum products, including gasoline, aviation fuel, kerosene; petroleum based lubricants; oil refining operations, biofuels production.
