China and South Sudan Forge Game-Changing Oil Partnership to Revitalize Key Production Fields
In a high-stakes meeting that could reshape South Sudan’s economic future, the Ministry of Petroleum and China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) have announced a major breakthrough in their strategic energy partnership. Undersecretary Deng Lual Wol revealed plans to establish a joint technical committee aimed at dramatically boosting oil production across the country’s most vital fields.
The ambitious collaboration targets key oil fields in Unity State, the Ruweng Administrative Area, and Upper Nile State—regions that represent the backbone of South Sudan’s petroleum infrastructure. CNPC has committed to deploying cutting-edge technology and substantial resources to address long-standing operational challenges that have hindered production capacity.
This renewed partnership builds on China’s pivotal role in South Sudan’s oil industry, which dates back to the pre-independence era. The agreement signals a proactive approach to revitalizing the country’s oil sector through robust international cooperation, with particular emphasis on field rehabilitation, local workforce development, and environmentally sustainable practices.
