Management of Tema Oil Refinery has officially procured and handed over a fleet of vehicles to significantly enhance and strengthen the operational efficiency of the refinery.
The fleet comprises eight (8) brand new Mitsubishi vehicles, three (3) Toyota Coaster buses, two (2) industrial forklifts, as well as other essential operational vehicles to support day-to-day activities across the refinery.
This timely logistical intervention comes at a critical moment, as the company has for a long time been confronted with severe logistical constraints. The last instance the refinery benefited from such substantial logistical support from management dates back to 2013, and the prolonged absence of adequate operational logistics adversely affected productivity and slowed overall progress.
The Board Chairman, Hon. Nayon Bilijo, officially commissioned the fleet, thereby authorizing its immediate deployment for official and operational use. Just as all other works were paid for using the Internally Generated Funds (IGF) of the company, these vehicles were procured using monies generated from within the refinery in 2025 by the new management.
Management seizes this opportunity to convey its profound appreciation to the President of the Republic, H.E. John Dramani Mahama, and the Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Hon. John Jinapor, for their steadfast support, strategic direction, and unwavering commitment to the refinery from inception to date. Management deeply acknowledges your guidance, leadership, and resolute agenda aimed at ensuring the sustainable success and revitalization of the refinery.
Management further extends its heartfelt gratitude to the entire workforce for their resilience, dedication, and unflinching support from day one to the present.

Tema Oil Refinery Acquires New Fleet to Boost Operations
Management of the Tema Oil Refinery (TOR) has procured and commissioned a new fleet of vehicles to enhance operational efficiency and support day-to-day activities at the facility.
The fleet includes eight brand new Mitsubishi vehicles, three Toyota Coaster buses, two industrial forklifts, and several other operational vehicles aimed at addressing long-standing logistical challenges at the refinery.
The intervention comes after years of severe logistical constraints, which management says affected productivity and slowed operational progress. TOR last received major logistical support of this scale in 2013, leaving a significant gap in operational capacity over the years.
The Board Chairman, Hon. Nayon Bilijo, officially commissioned the vehicles and approved their immediate deployment for official use. Management noted that the procurement was fully financed through the refinery’s Internally Generated Funds (IGF), generated in 2025 under the current management.
TOR management expressed appreciation to President John Dramani Mahama and the Minister for Energy and Green Transition, Hon. John Jinapor, for their support and policy direction toward the refinery’s revitalisation agenda.
Management also commended the refinery’s workforce for their resilience, dedication, and sustained support throughout the period of operational reforms.
