Preserving Rules
The decision to form an association, which is now a chamber, was based on the local Oil Marketing Industry being deeply aware of the need to preserve the Ghanaian market as a competitive marketplace governed by strict regulations, ethical behavior, and fair play in the face of liberalization of the Oil sector in Ghana.
The Chamber acts as the Industry’s mouthpiece and technical body for participating in the development of standards for both business conduct and operations for all and as an agent for change.
In the interest of self-governance, there is therefore the need to develop a ‘’code of Conduct’’, to guide members in the conduct of their businesses.
Our Core Mandate
The Association represents the collective interests of the companies involved in the oil marketing and petroleum products in Ghana, coordinating with the major Stakeholders in the Industry which include: the Ministry of Energy, Ministry of Finance, Bank of Ghana, National Petroleum Authority (NPA), The Energy Commission, Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Tema Oil Refinery (TOR), Ghana Standards Authority (GSA), Ghana Fire Service, Ghana Revenue Authority(GRA) and Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation Co. Ltd (BOST).
The OMCs operated as a loose organization for many years before the Association of Oil Marketing Companies (AOMCs) was registered with the adoption of a Constitution by all its Members in October 2003.
The Association is headed by a Chief Executive Officer referred to as the Industry Coordinator. It also has a Governing Board made up of representatives of both OMCs & LPGMCs.
