Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation Company Limited (BOST) is Ghana's state-owned petroleum storage and pipeline enterprise. Headquartered in Accra with major depots across the country including the North East Region, BOST provides strategic petroleum storage, transportation and distribution infrastructure for the nation's energy security.
Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation Company Limited (BOST) is Ghana's state-owned enterprise responsible for providing strategic petroleum storage, transportation, and distribution infrastructure across the nation. Established to ensure energy security, BOST operates a network of storage depots and pipelines, with its headquarters in Accra and major facilities in Tema, Akosombo, Kumasi, Buipe, and Bolgatanga. The company plays a critical role in stabilizing Ghana's petroleum supply chain and supporting the country's economic development.
BOST was incorporated in 1993 under the Companies Code 1963 (Act 179) as part of Ghana's energy sector reforms aimed at liberalizing and modernizing petroleum distribution. The company inherited infrastructure from the former Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC) and has since expanded its storage capacity and pipeline network. BOST's establishment marked a strategic shift toward specialized management of bulk petroleum storage and transportation infrastructure separate from exploration and production activities.
As a strategic petroleum infrastructure facility, BOST's operational sites have restricted public access due to security and safety protocols. The corporate headquarters in Accra can be contacted for official business inquiries, partnership discussions, or educational visits arranged through formal channels. Industry stakeholders and researchers may arrange guided tours by submitting advance written requests to the company's management.
BOST's Buipe depot in the Savannah Region serves as a critical link between southern Ghana's coastal petroleum facilities and the northern regions, helping to stabilize fuel prices and availability across the country's vast interior territories.
