The chairman of the Board of Directors of Quanten Consortium Angola explained that the project will be built in two phases, fulfilling the technical criteria for exploring gasoline and diesel.<\/p>\n<p>Segun Thomas provided the information to the press at the end of the audience with the President of the Republic, Jo\u00e3o Louren\u00e7o, at the Presidential Palace, in Cidade Alta. The official, who was accompanied, at the meeting, by the US ambassador to Angola, Tulinabo Mushingi, guaranteed that the Refinery will start up within three years, that is, in 2025, and, as it evolves, it may increase the number of barrels, whose initial capacity is estimated at 250 thousand barrels per day, as mentioned above.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I emphasize that the Soyo Refinery will be the only one of the two African refineries to be able to comply with this requirement, the Euro 5 standard, in terms of refining&#8221;, he underlined. Segun Thomas said that the project will be carried out in two phases, the first with construction and the second with production.<\/p>\n<p>The CEO of Quanten Consortium Angola also announced that the two phases of the project will generate a total of 16,000 direct and indirect jobs. With regard to refined products, the official informed that the Soyo Refinery, operating with high quality standards, will, in the first instance, handle gasoline and diesel with ultra-low sulfur content.<\/p>\n<p>At this moment, he said, the cleaning of the area and technical works are underway, in order to move on to the construction phase, properly speaking. &#8220;Only within this period, comprised of 3 and a half years, will we be able to start thinking about refining fuel&#8221;, stressed Segun Thomas.<\/p>\n<p>Quanten Consortium Angola-LLC is a North American company, having its executive office in San Jos\u00e9, California, engineering offices in Houston, Texas, and operations office located in San Nicolas, Aruba.<\/p>\n<p>The Quanten Consortium group of companies focuses, according to information provided by its portal, on the development of transformational projects, in emerging market countries, carrying out individual or series interventions, which support deep and systemic changes with potential for impact. on a large scale, in an area of \u200b\u200bgreat development challenge.<\/p>\n<p>The Executive placed, among its main priorities, the construction of refineries, such as those in Cabinda and Soyo, the requalification of the Luanda Refinery (all projects in progress) and the larger project of the Lobito Refinery, to start as early as possible, which will guarantee, in total, the refining of almost 400 thousand barrels of crude oil per day in the future. The information was provided by the Head of State at the opening of the 8th edition of the African Congress and Exhibition of Oil and Gas, CAPE VIII, which takes place in Luanda.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
