NPA reaffirms regulatory support as Puma Energy deepens investment in LPG and CRM

The National Petroleum Authority (NPA) has reiterated its dedication to offering responsive and transparent regulatory assistance to investors. This commitment was demonstrated when a delegation from Pumagas, led by its General Manager, Lanzeni Coulibaly, met with the Chief Executive of the NPA, Godwin Kudzo Tameklo, on September 28, 2026.

During the visit, Pumagas introduced itself and some of its key distributors and dealers to the NPA. The company showcased its new branded LPG cylinders, which are part of its strategy to bolster its involvement in the Cylinder Recirculation Model (CRM) and enhance access to secure and reliable LPG for consumers. Mr. Tameklo emphasized the NPA's ongoing support for legitimate industry players and the creation of a conducive environment for sustainable investment in Ghana's downstream petroleum sector.

He stressed the importance of effective collaboration between the regulator and industry to successfully implement the CRM.

Pumagas' expanding presence in the LPG market coincides with Ghana's efforts to broaden access to cleaner cooking fuels and meet its objective of achieving 50% LPG penetration by 2030 under the Cylinder Recirculation Model.
