The West African Gas Pipeline Company (WAPCo) is calling for stronger collaboration among Ghana and its neighboring countries to resolve persistent payment challenges that are contributing to a regional gas supply deficit.
According to WAPCo, tackling these financial bottlenecks is critical to ensuring a reliable minimum base load to support power generation and industrial activity across West Africa.
Speaking at the West African Gas Pipeline Committee of Ministers meeting in Accra, WAPCo Managing Director Michelle Burkett stressed the urgency of coordinated action to stabilize gas flow and drive energy security in the sub-region.
“While we have seen vast improvement in the gas deliveries from Nigeria, gaps still remain to meet the demand in the region.
“We appeal for coordinated efforts to secure a minimum sustained base load and strengthen financial stability through collaboration,” she said.
