GGC tells Assembly about lack of refinery to produce cooking oil
By Tabora Bojang. Officials of the National Food Security Processing and Marketing Corporation, formerly Gambia Groundnut Corporation, last week informed members of the National Assembly committee on agriculture that Gambia does not have capacity to refine groundnut into consumable oil because there is no refinery at the corporation unlike the days of its predecessor company GPMB.
The Gambia is heavily dependent on imports to meet its petroleum requirements. These include Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) as a cooking fuel substitute, and diesel and heavy fuel oil for generating electricity. There is currently no domestic oil production, but companies are exploring potential deposits offshore.

The Gambia is heavily dependent on imports to meet its requirements of petroleum derivatives, including the importation of diesel fuel for generating electricity.

The Gambia: Oil production, thousand barrels per day: For that indicator, we provide data for the Gambia from 2004 to 2022. The average value for the Gambia during that period was 0 thousand Barrels Per Day with a minimum of 0 thousand Barrels Per Day in 2004 and a maximum of 0 thousand Barrels Per Day in 2004. The latest value from 2022 is 0 thousand Barrels Per Day. For comparison, the world
In one example Phillips 66 announced its intention to convert a Bay Area oil refinery to a facility capable of biofuels production sourced from used cooking oil and animal fat.
