Meeting on August 26, 2026 in Douala under the auspices of the Cameroonian Oil Storage Company (SCDP), financial sector actors examined the financing scheme for the DPK project. Estimated at 150 billion FCFA, including 100 billion FCFA in local currency and the balance in euros, the investment provides for the construction of an interconnection pipeline and a large-capacity storage complex. Structured with the support of advisors PG & Partners and Matha Capital, the operation benefits from the establishment of a dedicated line in the petroleum products tariff schedule to guarantee repayment of subscribed bonds.

Legally structured since the appointment of executives on August 17, 2026, the industrial complex aims to optimize downstream logistics by accommodating deep-draft tankers. Thanks to improved depotage rates and the geographical distribution of strategic reserves, the system strengthens national energy autonomy. Furthermore, direct operational benefits will reduce costs linked to prolonged tanker anchorage offshore.

Driven by the performance of the deep-water port, the industrial site development promotes the fluidification of maritime trade flows. The reduction in berth waiting times will preserve margins for local hydrocarbon distributors.


The realization of capital raising will mark the effective launch of civil works on the coast. As for the commissioning of strategic reserves, they will serve as the central pillar of Cameroon’s energy security policy.
