The Albertine Graben Refinery Project (AGRP) entailed the development of a new oil refinery in Western Uganda, a water intake and water pipeline for the refinery, a product pipeline from Western to Central Uganda as well as a Remote Refinery Terminal in Central Uganda.

Atacama Consulting supported Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) update studies for the Project to reflect improvements and modifications to the project design, fill in gaps that had been identified in the previous ESIA work and align the assessment with IFC Performance Standards. The project will be critical for the Uganda’s Oil and Gas sector.
