Russia and the Central African Republic (CAR) have outlined plans to develop cooperation in the oil and gas sector over the next three years, CAR Minister of Energy Development and Water Resources Opportune Edwige Pouninguinza told TASS.
– “We cooperate [with Russia] in the oil and gas sector, both in hydrocarbon supplies and in the construction of storage facilities (as our existing capacity is somewhat limited). We also cooperate in personnel training. Since we plan to develop the oil and gas sector and hydropower, we need to train local specialists who will be able to continue this work in the future,” she noted.
– “As part of our cooperation with Russia, we have already outlined plans for the next three years. We expect the scale of our cooperation to continue growing over time,” the minister said.
– Pouninguinza also said that Russia and the CAR have a roadmap for developing joint projects in the water sector. “We also have hydropower and electricity supply projects that will cover three different cities,” she added.
