TARGET THROUGHPUT
The nation's energy infrastructure.
The energy backbone of the Congo.
ENGIP-RDC SA operates, modernises and extends the national petroleum infrastructure, from the Ango-Ango terminal to the eastern depots.
Institutional positioning
ENGIP-RDC SA is the designated national operator for petroleum infrastructure, energy logistics and security of supply across the entire Congolese territory.
A public limited company with majority State ownership, ENGIP-RDC SA combines a public-service mission with industrial discipline. Our mandate spans the reception, storage, transport and distribution of petroleum products, from imported crude through to the aviation fuels destined for the country's main airports.
A player in national energy sovereignty, we are mandated to serve all 26 of the Republic's provinces. Our facilities are designed and operated in accordance with API standards, ISO 14001 and the sector's international conventions.
Our operating framework rests on three inseparable commitments: continuity of supply to the domestic market, environmental rigour within the sensitive ecosystems of the Congo Basin, and the development of national technical expertise for the long term.
