In Pursuit of Jubilee
In Pursuit of Jubilee: A True Story of the First Major Oil Discovery in Ghana | George y Owusu, M Rutledge McCall
1 post | 1 read
In Pursuit of Jubilee Field is about a businessman who rose to the challenge and initiated an effort that would result in one of the largest discoveries of premium grade oil on the African continent. It was the opportunity of a lifetime. Yet, even before a drop of oil could be pumped, a firestorm would ensue when the new government of Ghana launched a criminal investigation of George Owusu, bringing the nation's fledgling oil industry to the brink of chaos and plunging his life into a nightmare. This riveting story answers many of the questions from George's point of view and captures how one man, upon whom the nation had bestowed its most coveted award, becomes a target, overnight. As often as not in life, good deeds, honesty and hard work aren't always met with joy. But integrity and fortitude always triumphs.

A very interesting narrative about the start of the Offshore exploration for hydrocarbon in Ghana. A struggling personal story affected by the politics penetrating the business. #2021
