据油气技术12月4日消息称，非洲基础设施解决方案提供商非洲金融公司（AFC）宣布，已与布拉姆斯集团旗下的布拉姆斯炼油厂公司达成联合开发协议，共同开发几内亚坎萨尔的一个石油储存及相关炼油厂项目，并为该项目提供后续融资。这将包括一个7.6万立方米的原油储存终端；11.42万立方米精炼产品存储终端；配套交通基础设施；以及日产1.2万桶石油的模块化炼油设施。
通过这项联合开发，AFC将投资于项目开发工作流程，以确保该项目在2020年实现财务结算。
该项目将有助于几内亚实现其经济和发展目标，这些目标因几内亚没有任何炼油能力而受到严重阻碍。项目建成投产后，该项目的炼油产能将达到精炼产品需求的三分之一，从而减少对进口精炼产品的依赖，改善国家收支平衡，减少外汇需求。它还将直接和间接地创造就业机会，并提高其他行业的发展和生产力，特别是采矿业，目前已占该国国内生产总值的15.3％，但如果这个国家有必要的基础设施来最大限度地利用并在当地使其自然资源受益，那么采矿业的占比可能更大。该项目战略性地坐落在卡姆萨尔，这是该国较大的矿区之一。
为了增加对几内亚的影响，AFC正在考虑在该国实施几个项目，以创建一个完整的生态系统。除该项目外，这还将包括一个33兆瓦的太阳能项目港口，以及其他采矿项目，所有这些都将补充AFC早前在Alufer的Bel Air铝土矿的投资。
AFC项目开发和技术解决方案团队的高级主管Amadou Wadda在声明中表示：“我们很高兴与布拉姆斯合作，在AFC成员国几内亚加速发展这一项目。布拉姆斯炼油厂项目将对该国的发展产生巨大影响。”
布拉姆斯炼油厂有限公司首席执行官Daouda Fall补充说：“与AFC合作是一个伟大的里程碑，这让我们离在2020年初实现财务结算和启动建设的目标又近了一步。我们将从AFC在基础设施项目建设和融资方面的经验中获益匪浅。”

AFC announces refinery joint development agreement with Brahms
Africa Finance Corp. (AFC), an infrastructure solutions provider in Africa, has announced its joint development agreement with Brahms Oil Refineries Ltd, which is part of Brahms Group, to act as co-developer on the development and subsequent financing to a petroleum storage and associated refinery project in Kamsar, Guinea. This will include a 76 000 m3 crude oil storage terminal; 114 200 m3 storage terminal for refined products; ancillary support transportation infrastructure; and 12 000 bpd of oil modular refining facility.
Through this joint development, AFC will invest in the project development workstreams that should ensure the project reaches financial close in 2020.
This project will be instrumental for Guinea to achieve its economic and developmental goals, which are severely hampered by Guinea not having any refining capacity. Once operational, the project will have a refinery capacity that is the equivalent of one-third of its demand for refined products, thereby reducing its reliance on imported refined products, improving the country’s balance of payments, and reducing foreign currency demand. It will also allow for direct and indirect job creation and enhance the development and productivity of other sectors, especially mining, which today accounts for 15.3% of the country’s GDP but could contribute even more if the country had the necessary infrastructure to maximise and locally beneficiate its natural resources. The project is strategically located in Kamsar, which is one of the larger mining regions in the country.
To increase its impact on Guinea, AFC is considering several projects in the country to create an integrated ecosystem. This would include, alongside this project, a 33 MW solar project port, and other mining projects, all of which will complement AFC’s earlier investment in Alufer’s Bel Air bauxite mine.
Amadou Wadda, Senior Director Project Development and Technical Solutions Team at AFC, commented on the announcement: “We are delighted to work with Brahms to accelerate the development of this instrumental project in Guinea, an AFC member state. The Brahms refinery project will have a tremendous impact in the country’s development.”
Daouda Fall, CEO of Brahms Oil Refineries Limited, added: “ To partner with AFC is a great milestone and brings us one step closer to our goal of reaching financial close in early 2020 and kickstarting construction. We will greatly benefit from AFC’s experience in setting up and financing infrastructure projects.”
