Jour de Pointe-Noire

The oil city, the port, the beach. Pointe-Noire is where the CFA franc meets the Atlantic, where Total and Elf built their operations, where expats live in compounds and Congolese workers build the economy one barrel at a time. The beaches are beautiful, the nights are warm, and the smell of oil money mixes with the smell of grilled fish. The CNOSS headquarters look out over the ocean and the fishing boats pass the tankers.
