Ghana's premium oil marketing company, GOIL PLC, was crowned Ghana's oil marketing company of the year at the just-ended maiden edition of the Ghana Downstream Awards and Gala Night held in Accra.
On the same night, GOIL PLC was honored for its outstanding contributions to the petroleum downstream sector and as a pioneer in the retail of petroleum products across the country.
GO Energy was also recognised as the Bulk Import Distribution and Export Company of the Year
The awards reflect the company's leadership qualities and dedication to providing quality fuel services for the petroleum industry countrywide and also for being a highly respected company advocating for best business practices in the sector.
The Downstream Gala and Awards Night is a pioneering awards scheme designed to promote compliance within the petroleum industry and to acknowledge both individual and institutional contributions to the growth and sustainability of the sector. By recognising excellence across the downstream value chain, the event aims to inspire higher standards and continuous improvement within the industry.
The 2024 Ghana International Petroleum Conference (GHiPCon) was organised by the National Petroleum Authority (NPA) in collaboration with the Chamber of Bulk Oil Distribution (CBOD) and the Association of Oil and Marketing Companies (AOMC), under the auspices of the Ministry of Energy. It brought together all the industry stakeholders to synergies and promoted a high level of ethics within the sector.
Key officials who retired from GOIL were recognised for their outstanding contributions to the petroleum downstream chain at the Ghana Downstream Awards.
Yaw Agyeman Duah, former Managing Director was honored for his major contribution to the industry and the formation and growth of the Association of Oil Marketing Companies (AOMC). At the same time, Patrick Akorli, the immediate past MD was also recognised for his outstanding contribution and leadership in the transformation of GOIL.
The Current MD of GO Energy, Gyamfi Amanquah was honored for his outstanding contribution to Ghana’s Petroleum Downstream sector while the former Chief Operating Officer of GOIL, the late Alex Josiah Adzew, was posthumously honored with a special recognition award for his outstanding contribution and transformational leadership as the first Chief Operating Officer of GOIL.
Speaking to the Media after receiving the awards and honours, the Public Relations Manager of GOIL, Robert Kyere was extremely grateful for the recognition, adding the awards reflect the company's unwavering focus on exceeding customer expectations while adhering to rigorous quality standards.
‘We dedicate the awards to our valued customers for their unflinching support and to the entire staff and frontline workers of GOIL’, he added.
GOIL, he said, will continue to work hard to distribute quality choices of fuel for all and always set the benchmark as the leader in the industry with credibility and reputation.
