Tullow’s leadership in Ghana’s oil and gas sector was reinforced at this year’s Chartered Institute of Supply Chain Management (CISCM) Awards held in Accra.
The company won five awards, including Best Organisation in Leadership and Governance; and Professional of the Year Award for its Local Content Manager, Dr. Jennifer Bruce-Konuah. The company also won Best Organisation in Legal and Contracts, Sourcing and Procurement and Africa’s Institution of Excellence.
The awards reflect Tullow’s dedication to Ghana’s energy sector, including a strong focus on local content participation, development, and economic growth.
For close to two decades now, Tullow’s influence and impact in the energy sector has positioned Ghana as a leading frontier for oil and gas in West Africa. The company has invested more than US$23 billion in the Jubilee and TEN fields, with more than US$9 billion revenues to government.
Last year alone, Tullow delivered total oil and gas production receipts of US$844.4 million to the Ghana government. It also awarded US$912 million in contracts to indigenous and joint-venture companies operating in the sector.
The company has also strengthened the country’s supply chain activities, especially in the upstream sector, leading to several job creation opportunities.
Commenting on the recognition, Tullow Ghana Managing Director, Jean-Medard Madama said:
“It is always a pleasure when you are recognised for the commitment and dedication to your line of business. We are grateful to the Chartered Institute of Supply Chain Management for acknowledging our hardwork with these awards. Our commitment to the socio-economic growth of this country has never been in doubt and we are determined to push even harder. These accolades are a further call on us to continuously endeavour to build a better future for Ghana.”
In a related development, Tullow’s Supply Chain Manager, Dr. Otuko John-Teye handed over her mantle of leadership as the 2024 CISCM Woman of the Year at the same event.
