Sources close to the GEA and familiar with their judging criteria indicated the many possible reasons that tipped the scales in Mr. Edwin Provençal’s favour. The sources affirmed that the massive turnaround witnessed at BOST during Mr. Edwin’s stewardship from a loss-making entity to a profit making company and the revival of three defunct depots, reactivation of its petroleum product pipelines, and the resumption of marine operations on the Volta Lake were hinted to be among the reasons for the honour bestowed on Mr. Edwin Alfred Provencal as the CEO of the year for the Petroleum Sector.


Under his stewardship BOST paid off most its debts through internally generated funds and made a profit of Ghc160 million after audit by the Auditor General Department. After receiving the prestigious awards Mr. Edwin expressed gratitude to God and Country for the award and praised his staff and management team for their wonderful contributions towards this feat.


He promised that the team at BOST will leave no stone unturned in delivering the BOST mandate of providing fuel security for the nation. The Board Chairman of BOST, Ekow Hackman, who witnessed the event further assured that the heat is on and that BOST is on track towards becoming a beacon of excellence in the running of State-Owned Enterprises in the country.
He was optimistic that BOST will become a household name when it comes to institutions that adhere to the positive emerging trends in corporate governance.
