Oil Industry ProfileNational Information
The West African state of Ivory Coast is known more as an oil refining country rather than as an oil
producing one. While it does not have the prolific offshore oil fields of Nigeria, it does possess a
modest upstream oil industry. Its oil reserves have been estimated at 25 million barrels and
recoverable gas reserves at 23 billion cubic metres or more.
