Taxi Korhogo
ETaxi est un projet de mobilité électrique initiée par l'entreprise JAMAHA HOLDING. Ce projet vise à déployer la première flotte de taxi surtout véhicule a quatre roues électrique dans la ville de Korhogo en réponse a ce manque d'engins a quatre roues et dont les deux roues font le service avec tous ses corolaires qu'ils créent au quotidien. Ce projet s'étend par l'installation et l'exploitation de bornes de recharges dans la ville de Korhogo pour facilité les recharges et éviter d'éventuels temps morts. La fourniture en énergie sera couplé de la fourniture classique et énergie renouvelable tel que le solaire.
DiscoverCentral Electricity of Carrefour-Guitry
The Carrefour-Guitry Biomass Thermal Power Plant project (76 MW) is a major energy transition initiative spearheaded by the Société des Énergies Nouvelles (SODEN) in the Lôh-Djiboua region (Côte d’Ivoire). Building on the experience gained during the development of the twin project in Divo, the project valorizes untapped agricultural residue deposits — primarily the bark and wood of coconut palms nearing the end of their life cycle, complemented by biomass from hevea trees. The region generates nearly 10 % % of Ivory Coast’s cocoa, ensuring a sustainable supply of fuel over a 30-year concession through 11 local collection platforms.
Designed as a BOOT (Build, Own, Operate, Transfer) contract, the project is directly aligned with Côte d'Ivoire's national energy planning (aiming for 346 MW of biomass-based electricity by 2040). Technically proven, the plant will generate approximately 550 GWh of net electricity per year, avoiding the emission of more than 350,000 tonnes of CO₂ equivalent annually through methane capture and the reduction of fossil emissions.
The project incorporates a strong social and environmental dimension: the creation of 681 direct permanent jobs and up to 2,000 jobs during the construction phase. Moreover, a foundation funded at 550 million FCFA per year will support the development of community infrastructure (schools, health care) and irrigation of local cocoa farms in response to the climate challenge.
Mixed career – training center for the trades of small mines and quarries.
The mixed career — Alépé's alluvial project
In the alluvial deposits of the Comoé River, the same geological layer, the base gravel located at the contact with the bedrock, constitutes both the best granulate of the deposit and the level at which the gold naturally concentrated. Two activities exploit these alluvial deposits today without ever meeting each other. The quarries of Grand Abidjan, established mainly on granite deposits, do not industrially valorize the alluvial granulates. Mining only extracts the gold from them, using methods that are inefficient and often at the cost of mercury, then abandons the granulates. The mixed quarry proposes treating these alluvial deposits once, extracting both products and turning the site into a field school for the trades of small mines and quarries. Its logic is summed up in one sentence: the alluvial granulates bank the site, the gold remunerates the men, and the school qualifies them.
The Alépé site, located about 45 km from Abidjan, houses three technical platforms in real operating conditions.
The first pillar of the project is an industrial quarry. An installation with a capacity of 250 tons per hour, including washing, screening and crushing, exploits the entire alluvial profile. It produces approximately 800,000 tons per year of rolled and crushed aggregates, from sand to gravel, for all the construction markets in Greater Abidjan: concrete, mortar, prefabrication, roads, sanitation and drainage. The gold contained in the sands is recovered in a separate circuit. The quarry alone ensures the economic balance of the site.
The second is a semi-industrial processing unit capable of processing 60 tons per hour. It processes the auriferous layer extracted from the plots on the site by interns from the long-term courses, supervised by permanent operators. The process is exclusively gravimetric: no mercury or cyanide is used.
The third is an artisanal gold mining area. It is not intended to produce. Future artisans learn the best practices there: safety, extraction and mercury-free concentration, and the restoration of sites. They obtain the certifications that will allow them to operate their own site in the region under good conditions.
The concentrates from the three zones are processed in a common densitometric center, equipped only with shaking tables. The gold is recovered, weighed and sorted without melting on site.
The training center relies on these facilities and the site's maintenance workshops. Its goal is to train 1,200 people per year: apprentices in short-term training, technicians in six- to eight-week courses (machinery operation, installation piloting, maintenance, crushing mechanics), as well as government officials. It also offers support for the leaders of cooperatives and semi-industrial and industrial sites, and connects them with distributors of equipment partners of the site.
The project is at the design stage. We are seeking institutional, technical and financial partners to launch the pre-verification program (measure of content, authorizations, land security). In concert with the mining administration, the riverine communities and the sector stakeholders, we aim to build an economically viable, technically proven and accepted site by all stakeholders, serving the professionalization of gold mining and the production of alluvial gravel in Côte d'Ivoire.
MINERAL EXPLORATION COMPANY CEMA’s CARD AND THE NATIONAL NUMERICAL PLATFORM PLANIMINE
Our project will meet two main objectives:
– Formalize and trace the artisanal mining activity in Côte d’Ivoire,
based on the model of the coffee-cocoa producer card
– contribute to mobilizing and managing the various financial flows related to the artisanal and semi-industrial sector
CONTEXT
Ivory Coast's mining sector is experiencing rapid expansion (approximately 10,000 billion FCFA invested since 2014, with new discoveries such as the Doropo deposit), but this growth is accompanied by a continuous increase in illegal mining. Official data indicate that there are more than 1,600 clandestine gold mining sites operating throughout the country, generating pollution of waterways, destruction of forest cover, and recurring land disputes with local farming communities.
The success of the café-cacao model as a reference
Since 2019, the Coffee-Cocoa Board has been implementing a National Traceability System (SNT) based on three complementary tools: the producer card, the electronic payment terminal (TPE), and the traceability seals affixed to the bags.
This scheme, which is generalized and made mandatory for all purchases starting September 1, 2026, has enabled the enlistment of more than 1.1 million producers and the distribution of approximately 900,000 cards to date.
The government itself has launched a mining rationalization plan aimed at transitioning this activity from a clandestine and illegal status to a legal artisanal mining activity, authorized and respectful of the rules of the profession, particularly environmental and social ones — a political intention already established, but lacking a unified operational tool comparable to that of cocoa.
1.3 Why the card-planting model is transferable
– Both streams share the same fundamental challenge: a multitude of actors scattered across the territory, difficult to identify and control individually.
– Both sectors are subject to international pressure regarding the traceability of origin (zero deforestation for cocoa, «clean» minerals/not sourced from conflict zones for gold – standards close to the OECD and the US Dodd-Frank Act).
– The success of the SNT cocoa demonstrates that an individual identifier coupled with concrete social benefits can massively shift an informal sector towards legality within a few years.
– The institutional infrastructure already exists partially (CMU, mobile money operators, BNETD for mapping) and can be shared rather than recreated.
Plateforme RATEL : Offre de services pétroliers intégrés en Côte d’Ivoire
RATEL Energies & Logistics est une société ivoirienne de services Oil & Gas, industriels et énergétiques, active depuis janvier 2025. Elle a été fondée par quatre anciens cadres de majors des services pétroliers, qui cumulent plus de 60 ans d’expérience en Afrique de l’Ouest, en Afrique centrale et au Moyen-Orient.
Le besoin. La production pétrolière ivoirienne progresse fortement avec Baleine, Calao, Baobab et Foxtrot, et les infrastructures gaz, de stockage et de raffinage se développent en parallèle. Les opérateurs et les EPC (Eni, PETROCI, SAIPEM, FOXTROT, GESTOCI, SIR) ont un besoin permanent de maintenance, d’inspection, de fourniture technique et de contrôle de la corrosion. La loi 2022-408 sur le contenu local les oblige à confier ces lots à des entreprises ivoiriennes qualifiées. Or le marché local reste partagé entre des PME spécialisées sur un seul métier et de grands EPC internationaux. Il manque un intégrateur local structuré, conforme aux standards des majors.
L’objet. RATEL se positionne comme cet intégrateur. Son offre couvre :
_la fourniture technique et le MRO documenté ;
_la maintenance mécanique, électrique et instrumentation ;
_l’inspection, les contrôles non destructifs et l’ATEX ;
_la protection cathodique et le revêtement anticorrosion ;
_la tuyauterie, le soudage et la chaudronnerie ;
_à terme, les services de puits et l’intervention sous-marine.
L’avancement.
5 arrêtés d’agrément du Ministère des Mines, du Pétrole et de l’Énergie (catégories A, B-1 et B-2), couvrant 79 activités distinctes, valables jusqu’en avril 2028.
Un contrat de 5 ans signé avec Altera Infrastructure pour l’inspection ATEX (5 M USD, soit environ 600 M FCFA par an).
1,7 Md FCFA d’offres soumises auprès de SAIPEM, Ola Energy, SIMAM, GESTOCI et FOXTROT.
Des bons de commande déjà exécutés pour SAIPEM, FOXTROT et PETROCI.
Des statuts et documents sociaux entièrement mis à jour en 2026.
Les perspectives. RATEL recherche un financement pour construire son atelier, acquérir ses équipements, certifier ses équipes et sécuriser son fonds de roulement. Le plan vise un chiffre d’affaires de 8 à 9 Mds FCFA en 2030, soit 4 à 5 % du marché accessible aux entreprises ivoiriennes. À horizon 2036, l’ambition est de devenir une référence régionale en Afrique de l’Ouest.
Services de puits et intervention sous-marine
Dans un second temps, RATEL passera du rôle de prestataire de surface à celui d’opérateur de services de puits et d’intervention sous-marine. Ces activités sont déjà couvertes par ses agréments, et la croissance des actifs offshore ivoiriens les rend nécessaires. Le programme comprend trois métiers.
a)_Raclage et intégrité des pipelines. RATEL réalisera le nettoyage des conduites par racleurs, du 6 au 24 pouces, ainsi que l’inspection instrumentée par racleur intelligent. Cette inspection repose sur deux techniques : les fuites de flux magnétique et les ultrasons. Elle permet de mesurer l’épaisseur résiduelle des parois, de localiser la corrosion et les défauts, et de produire les rapports d’intégrité exigés par les opérateurs. Le suivi des campagnes s’appuie sur des signaleurs de passage, des localisateurs et l’enregistrement de la pression et du débit.
b)_Travaux de puits par câble et tubulaires. Au moyen d’une unité slickline, RATEL interviendra dans les puits en production pour quatre types d’opérations :
_mesures de fond ;
_pose et repêchage de vannes et de bouchons ;
_nettoyage du tubage ;
_opérations de repêchage.
S’y ajoutent la manutention des tubulaires (vissage et dévissage au moyen de clés hydrauliques, de spiders et d’une machine de vissage-dévissage) et la fourniture de tubulaires à partir d’un stock local.
c)_Plongée et intervention sous-marine. Une équipe de plongée assistée et un ROV d’observation assureront l’inspection visuelle, le contrôle d’épaisseur et les contrôles non destructifs sous l’eau. Ces interventions portent sur les structures, les risers, les conduites et les équipements sous-marins. L’équipe assurera aussi l’entretien et la réparation des conduites offshore, ainsi que la maintenance des systèmes sous-marins de production.
Ces services s’appuient sur des équipes certifiées selon les standards internationaux : plongeurs et superviseurs IMCA, pilotes ROV, opérateurs slickline qualifiés IWCF et opérateurs de raclage instrumenté. Leur formation est intégrée au programme.
