Mr Owusu Bempah disclosed that the company is in talks with degree awarding institutions in Ghana to develop some program along the oil and gas sector to enhance knowledge in the media space.
The media space was filled with some speculations of safety lapses with the 11 kilometer Ghana Gas – Karpowership pipeline project, after President Nana Addo turned on valves for first gas to flow into the power-ship on December 7. Commenting on the dire implications of such news to the national asset, Mr Owusu Bempah entreated journalist to be circumspect in their reportage.
“Our doors are always opened, and if you need the facts you come to us and come for the facts” he advised.
