Kampala, December 23rd, 2022. The Jinja Storage Terminal (JST) that has been managed under a Joint Venture Partnership between One Petroleum Limited (OPL) consortium and Uganda National Oil Company Limited (UNOC) will now fully be under management and operatorship by UNOC effective 23rd December, 2022.
