Touchstone Capital Partners (“TCP”) today announced that it is formally advancing its flagship Ghana Oil & Gas Hub project, drawing on the Touchstone ecosystem, proprietary TCP IP, strategic capital partnerships and an integrated project-development platform to support the next generation of Ghana’s energy infrastructure.
Following recent announcements by PHDC regarding the Ghana Oil & Gas Hub, Touchstone is working with PHDC to advance the project toward execution and to establish a comprehensive platform spanning upstream, midstream and downstream energy infrastructure. The project is designed to mobilise significant international and domestic capital while maximising the use of Ghana’s existing industrial, energy, logistics, infrastructure and human-capital ecosystem.
A $60 billion integrated energy vision
The proposed programme represents an investment opportunity of approximately $60 billion across multiple phases and energy infrastructure segments, creating a large-scale integrated energy ecosystem rather than a standalone project.
1. Upstream — initial $15 billion programme
The first phase will focus on upstream oil and gas development, including the infrastructure, production capacity and associated facilities required to establish the foundation for the broader hub.
2. Midstream — storage, logistics and marine infrastructure
- Large-scale oil and gas storage
- Tank farms and terminals
- Marine and jetty infrastructure
- Product handling and logistics
- Pipeline and transportation infrastructure
- Export and domestic distribution capabilities
3. Downstream — gas-to-power, refining and petrochemicals
- Gas-to-power generation
- Oil refining and petrochemical production
- Gas processing
- Energy and industrial products
- Supporting manufacturing and processing infrastructure
From project to platform
Capital + Infrastructure + Energy + Technology + Industrial Development + Government + Strategic Partners
Touchstone’s strategic objective is not simply to finance an individual energy project — TCP is building a platform. Upstream production can supply the midstream system; midstream infrastructure can support refining and processing; gas can support power generation; power can support industrial development; and downstream manufacturing can create additional domestic and export value.
Leveraging Ghana’s existing ecosystem
- Existing oil and gas resources and energy infrastructure
- Ports and marine access, and industrial zones
- Local engineering and construction capabilities
- Financial institutions and government infrastructure
- Local workforce and professional services
- Existing energy-market demand and regional ECOWAS market access
A platform for government, investors and strategic partners
Energy Security → Industrialisation → Employment → Fiscal Revenues → Infrastructure Development → Regional Energy Leadership
For investors, the platform creates potential exposure across multiple complementary infrastructure and energy asset classes rather than relying on a single revenue stream. For strategic industry partners, it provides opportunities to participate across the upstream, midstream and downstream value chain.
Next phase
Touchstone and its partners will now focus on progressing the project through the next stages of technical development, commercial structuring, government engagement, strategic partnership formation and capital mobilisation. Further announcements are expected as the project reaches key development milestones.
