Though a U.S.-based Nigerian-American, the
Ibadan-born global oil and gas baron, Kase Lawal of
CAMAC HOLDINGS plays big in the international upstream
and downstream sector of the oil and gas industry.

Dr. Luqman Kayode Lawal who is popularly known as
Kase Lawal is Texas, United States’ richest black man.

Born in Elekuro area of Ibadan South East local government
of Oyo State on‎ June 30, 1954 in Ibadan, Oyo state, he
obtained his Bachelor of Science in chemistry from Texas
Southern University in 1976, and his MBA from Prairie View
A&M University, Texas in 1978.


As of 2018 he had a networth of $3billion

Oil Exploration, Refining and Trading, the Head of CAMAC Holdings
Is in a Class by Himself"

Article excerpt


To hear Kase Lawal tell it, while his company has been successful in carving out a niche for itself, it still remains little more than a drop in the bucket" when compared to its competitors. But when the bucket is the trillion-dollar energy industry, and the niche is pumping and processing crude from saturated oil fields in Africa, then a drop does not an Exxon make, but it is enough to make CAMAC Holdings the largest Black-owned business in the world, and the unassuming 51-year-old CEO a modern-day oil magnate.

In fact, from oil exploration, refining and trading, Lawal's Houston-based company raked in a mind-boggling $1 billion in revenue last year alone. With offices in London, Johannesburg, and Lagos and Port Harcourt in Nigeria, CAMAC routinely moves, produces or trades a barrel of oil every second of every hour of every day. That totals about 100,000 barrels of crude every 24 hours.

"Business is great," Lawal says of CAMAC, celebrating its 20th anniversary this month. "You just have to look at the newspaper to see the price of commodities."
