    Preamble:

    

    

    The Ghana Oil Hub planned by the Republic of Ghana is in works since 2017. Vintage being a local company is organizing a Joint Venture
      Corporation to collaborate with the Government of the Republic of Ghana in building the Ghana Oil Hub.

    

    

    The following process has been envisaged in building the components of the Oil Hub.

    

    

    A Joint Venture Corporation shall be established between Vintage, TIM and Kallo. The commitment from TIM for investment of US$150 Million
      for the land acquisition and US$60 billion for the project investment is contingent on the collaterals and security that can be issued to TIM after the feasibility studies and selected projects. This commitment of the financial capability shall
      secure the first right in all projects. TIM shall invest in projects only after receiving acceptable financial instrument through an acceptable Bank.

    

    

    The Joint Venture Corporation shall purchase the land identified by the Republic of Ghana as per Schedule B. Vintage shall coordinate the
      acquisition of the land with financing from TIM. The details such as collaterals and security for financing the Land in this transaction shall be worked out after the JV agreement has been signed and before any such investment of financing is
      requested from the Financing partner TIM. The land shall be purchased by the JV Corporation and the Title shall be transferred to TIM and such agreements shall be executed before the acquisition of the land.

     

    

     

    

    
      
        TIM____________                                          VINTAGE__________                                            KALLO__________

        

        

        

        

        

        

      

      
        

      
        
          6 December 2019

          Contract No.: TIM-061219-001-F/INV/JVA/GH 

        

        

        

      

    

     

    

     

    

    

    

    After acquiring the land, the Joint Venture agreement will be submitted to the Ministry of Finance for Parliamentary approval.

    

    

    Upon parliamentary approval the Republic of Ghana shall sign an addendum to become part of the Joint Venture Corporation.

    

    

    The Joint Venture Corporation shall work to complete the feasibility studies for the three phases of Infrastructure projects as per
      Schedule C of the Joint Venture Agreement.

    

    

    The Joint Venture Corporation shall decide based on the feasibility studies on the projects the JV Corporation would invest and operate
      directly and which of these projects can be tendered out for other global corporations to participate with the Joint Venture Corporation

    

    

    Phased Development of Key Infrastructure

    

    

    Phase 1

    The first phase of the project will involve the construction of the initial storage infrastructure of 1,000,000m3 and port facilities
      with multiple berths. The first three (3) petrochemical plants using feedstock of natural gas from the Sankofa, Jubilee and TEN fields as well as from other producing fields will be constructed during the First Phase. This level of development will
      be enough to commence trading activities as well as start the development of a petrochemical downstream market in Ghana and the sub region as a whole.

    

    

    Phase 2

    The second phase of the project will involve the construction of the first batch of two (2) refineries of 300,000bpsd capacity each and
      two (2) petrochemical plants with processing capacity of 45,000bpsd each which will use feedstock of Naphtha from the refineries. This stage will also involve the addition of further storage infrastructure of 4,000,000m3 to create adequate storage
      space for the storage of crude oil, petrochemical products and boost trading activities.

    

    

    Phase 3

    The third phase will involve the construction of one (1) more refinery of 300,000bpsd. This stage will also involve the addition of
      further storage infrastructure of 5,000,000m3 to bring the total storage infrastructure in the Hub to 10,000,000m3. This phase will also include the 55 construction of other auxiliary infrastructure (such as a new power plant) as may be required in
      accordance with the needs of the Hub enclave

    

    

    Cost of Investment

    

    

    It is estimated that the total cost of developing the Petroleum Hub will be US$60 billion. Out of this amount it is expected that 90%
      would be cost of infrastructure to be provided by private investors whereas Government would be expected to invest the 10%. Government is expected to undertake the following:
