Gabon reshuffles cabinet, replaces oil minister

Reuters - UK Focus

LIBREVILLE, Jan 10 (Reuters) - OPEC-member Gabon has replaced three ministers, including the oil minister, the government said in a statement late on Monday.

The former French colony's 220,000-barrel-per-day oil sector has long been dominated by French firm Total (LSE: 524773.L - news) but U.S., Chinese and British firms have made inroads into the central African country.

Pascal Houangni Ambourouet will replace Etienne Dieudonne Ngoubou, who defended the government's interests during a year-long spat with British-based Tullow over an oilfield stake.

Noel Mboumba was named economy minister and Edgar Anicet Mboumbou Miyakou is the new budget minister. (Reporting by Gerauds Wilfried Obangome; Writing by Emma Farge; Editing by Janet Lawrence)
