The Société gabonaise de raffinage (Société gabonaise de raffinage, SOGARA) has announced a development project aimed at tripling
We examine the potential for solar energy in global oil operations, including both extraction and transport ("upstream") and refining ("downstream"). Two open-source oil-sector
Strategically positioned on the West coast of Central Africa, Gabon is making strides towards enhancing oil and gas refining, storage
This dam is expected to significantly contribute to Gabon''s renewable energy capacity and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, Gabon is leveraging its vast
This dam is expected to significantly contribute to Gabon''s renewable energy capacity and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Gabon has unveiled a comprehensive National Solar Energy Plan (NSEP) to boost its renewable energy capacity, aiming to generate at least 10 MW of solar power by 2025.
Gabon is also increasing its refining capacity, with plans to expand SOGARA – the country''s sole refinery – from annually processing
The Société gabonaise de raffinage (Société gabonaise de raffinage, SOGARA) has announced a development project aimed at tripling Gabon''s oil refining capacity by 2030.
With a capacity of 30 megawatts, this plant is equipped with a solar tracking device (or solar tracker) and a battery electrical energy storage system, is a major step forward for Gabon''''s

Other studies in the literature considered coupling solar energy systems to oil refineries to decarbonize their operation. The applicability and feasibility of introducing a concentrated solar power (CSP) system to reduce partial reliance on process heaters of a crude oil refinery was studied by Danish et al. .
Hydrogen is a significant raw material in petrochemical hydrogenation process (e.g., hydrocracking, hydrotreating), whereas steam has multiple uses within a refinery. Other studies on solar-thermal-assisted refineries are summarized here as follows. In Absi Halabi et al. , the application of solar energy in the oil industry is reviewed.
The strategy aligns with efforts to strengthen energy sovereignty, at a time when the oil sector remains central to Gabon’s public revenues. The project’s realisation will depend on access to the external financing required for the second phase.
