The Director of the Port Sudan Refinery, Hajwa Al-Sheikh Mohamed Madani, revealed that several companies, including Gulf, Russian, and Sudanese firms, have expressed interest in investing in the refinery.

During her meeting on Thursday with the Minister of Energy, Mutasim Ibrahim Ahmed, at his office in Port Sudan, Madani provided a detailed briefing on the history, current status, and multiple investment opportunities related to the new Port Sudan Refinery project.

She noted that the entities expressing investment interest include a Gulf investor, a Russian company, and Petronid, a Sudanese firm.

For his part, the Minister of Energy confirmed the seriousness of the Gulf investor, stating that they are expected to visit the refinery soon to begin project evaluation and set a launch timeline.

The refinery is considered a key project within the broader post-war reconstruction vision and part of efforts to redistribute petroleum infrastructure geographically. Strategically located on the Red Sea coast, the refinery aims to meet Sudan’s needs for petroleum products as well as those of neighboring landlocked countries.
