PHDC Advances Ghana’s $60bn Petroleum Hub Vision with Investor Summit in Kuala Lumpur
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia | 8 September 2025 — The Petroleum Hub Development Corporation (PHDC) has taken a major step forward in positioning Ghana as a leading energy hub with the successful staging of the Investor Breakfast Meeting in Kuala Lumpur. The high-level summit brought together global investors, industry leaders, and policymakers to deliberate on Ghana’s $60 billion Petroleum Hub vision, showcasing new opportunities and securing strategic partnerships.
The inaugural Kuala Lumpur summit was a defining moment for the hub agenda, underscoring PHDC’s ability to attract global attention to Ghana’s expanding downstream and midstream infrastructure. Investor engagement was at the forefront, with the event delivering tangible outcomes in the form of strategic deals and partnership commitments. These agreements reinforced Ghana’s attractiveness as a destination for large-scale energy investment, while also strengthening the confidence of stakeholders in the long-term viability of the hub.
A key highlight of the summit was PHDC’s reaffirmation of adherence to international oil and gas measurement standards, a move designed to ensure credibility, transparency, and operational excellence. By committing to these benchmarks, PHDC is demonstrating Ghana’s readiness to compete globally while safeguarding investor interests and aligning with best practices across the energy value chain.
The Investor Breakfast Meeting also emphasized the broader vision of Ghana’s petroleum hub: transforming the country into a regional energy and petrochemical powerhouse, reducing Africa’s dependence on external refining capacity, and catalyzing industrial growth. With strong participation from Asian investors, the summit marked a significant milestone in diversifying the investor base and linking Ghana’s hub agenda to global capital markets.
The Kuala Lumpur engagement has not only advanced Ghana’s hub vision but also set the tone for deeper international collaboration, signaling PHDC’s determination to turn ambition into a global energy reality.
