Tullow Ghana dominates 2025 CISCM awards with five major honours
Energy giant Tullow Ghana cemented its reputation as a trailblazer in the oil and gas industry after scooping five accolades at the 2025 Chartered Institute of Supply Chain Management (CISCM) Awards held in Accra on April 8.
The company emerged as the night’s biggest winner, taking home honours for Best Organisation in Leadership and Governance, Best Organisation in Legal and Contracts, Best Organisation in Sourcing and Procurement, and Africa’s Institution of Excellence.
In a personal triumph, Tullow’s Local Content Manager, Dr. Jennifer Bruce-Konuah, was named Professional of the Year, highlighting the company's growing influence in strategic leadership and local industry development.
The recognition underscores Tullow’s longstanding commitment to enhancing Ghana’s energy landscape, particularly through local content growth and supply chain excellence.
“For close to two decades now, Tullow’s influence and impact in the energy sector has positioned Ghana as a leading frontier for oil and gas in West Africa,” organisers said in acknowledging the company’s contributions.
With over US$23 billion invested in Ghana’s Jubilee and TEN oil fields and more than US$9 billion in revenues delivered to government coffers, Tullow’s economic footprint is hard to miss. Just last year, the company contributed US$844.4 million in oil and gas receipts to the state and awarded US$912 million worth of contracts to indigenous and joint-venture companies—figures that reflect its deliberate strategy to deepen local participation.
Speaking on the sidelines of the awards, Tullow Ghana Managing Director Jean-Medard Madama expressed gratitude for the recognition, noting that it was a testament to the company’s ongoing dedication to national development.
“It is always a pleasure when you are recognised for the commitment and dedication to your line of business. We are grateful to the Chartered Institute of Supply Chain Management for acknowledging our hard work with these awards. Our commitment to the socio-economic growth of this country has never been in doubt and we are determined to push even harder. These accolades are a further call on us to continuously endeavour to build a better future for Ghana,” he said.
The awards also marked a symbolic transition for Dr. Otuko John-Teye, Tullow’s Supply Chain Manager, who officially handed over the title of CISCM Woman of the Year 2024 at the event—further evidence of the company’s strong leadership presence across key segments of the sector.
