Projet GTA : Le Pr Diomaye Faye fixe les perspectives au patron de Kosmos Energy
On the sidelines of the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, the President of the Republic, Bassirou Diomaye Diakhar Faye, received Andrew Inglis, Chairman and CEO of Kosmos Energy, on Thursday, September 24, 2026. Discussions focused on the company's activities in Senegal and the prospects for development in the energy sector.
The Greater Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) gas project was the main topic of discussion between the Head of State and the head of Kosmos Energy. The two parties also addressed the prospects for the various projects in which the energy group is involved in Senegal.
During the meeting, President Bassirou Diomaye Faye reiterated Senegal's expectations regarding the exploitation of its natural resources. The Head of State stressed that this exploitation must be based on responsibility, transparency, and shared benefits, with a particular emphasis on creating value at the national level.
Local content at the heart of priorities
The issue of local content was also among the priorities discussed at this meeting. Senegalese authorities wish to strengthen the participation of national businesses and expertise in the energy sector's value chain, so that resource exploitation contributes more significantly to the country's economy.
This approach also aims to promote the economic and social benefits of oil and gas activities for the Senegalese population.
Energy as a lever for industrialization
The interview finally provided an opportunity to discuss the prospects for cooperation between Senegal and Kosmos Energy, but also the broader role of the energy sector in the country's development strategy.
For the Senegalese authorities, the stakes thus go beyond mere hydrocarbon production. The aim is to make the energy sector a lever for value creation, industrialization, and economic transformation, particularly through the development of related activities and the strengthening of national capacities.
