Technical FAQs 4

Who is responsible for the energy sector in Gabon?

The Ministry of Petroleum and Gas and the Ministry of Energy and Hydraulic Resources share responsibility for the energy sector. SEEG, the national electricity and water service company of Gabon, was under a concession to the French company Veolia from 1997.

Can Gabon become a regional energy hub?

As Gabon transitions from oil dependency to cleaner energy, gas-fired power generation will bridge the gap and support the country’s shift. Key infrastructure developments, such as the Owendo plant and floating power solutions, position Gabon for long-term energy security and enhance its potential as a regional energy hub.

How will Gabon expand its power generation capacity?

The demand for advanced technology, skilled labor and power generation services will continue to rise as Gabon expands its electricity generation capacity, presenting significant opportunities for companies in gas extraction, power generation and transmission.

What is the main energy source in Gabon?

It also ranks as the 3rd largest oil producer in sub-Saharan Africa; following Nigeria & Angola . The country's two main energy sources are fossil-fuels and hydropower . 51.7% of Gabon's total produced electricity in 2015 were generated from hydro, and 48.2% were from fossil fuels .
