A team from Uganda's Ministry of Health and the Petroleum Authority of Uganda toured health facilities along the East African Crude Oil Pipeline corridor "to evaluate the readiness of the existing health facilities in the 10 districts along the EACOP route to provide the required health services."

The Petroleum Authority of Uganda, together with the Ministry of Health and the Uganda Health Federation, held a one-day conference to discuss health investment opportunities in the oil and the gas sector while highlighting the standards expected.
