.History
The Atlético Petróleos de Luanda club was founded on 14 January 1980 from the merger of three clubs, Grupo Sonangol, Clube Atlético de Luanda and Benfica de Luanda. The establishment was a result of business cooperation after the independence of Angola from colonisation by Portugal. Another reason was that the country's oil company aimed to reintegrate with the community through sports.[1] The club started with football before later establishing its basketball section.
Petro de Luanda won its first Angolan Basketball League in 1989, which was followed by seven more championships, as well as six Angolan Cups, during the 1990s.
During the 2000s, Petro won the league championship in 2006 and 2007 but saw arch-rivals Primeiro de Agosto win most of the trophies this decade. On 26 November 2006, Petro de Luanda won its first-ever continental title after winning the 2006 FIBA Africa Clubs Champions Cup in Lagos. They beat Primeiro de Agosto in the final, and Mílton Barros was named the tournament MVP.
The 2010s were more balanced for the Angolan League in term of competition, with Petro winning the 2011, 2015 and 2019 title. On 19 December 2015, they won their second continental title after taking the 2015 FIBA Africa Clubs Champions Cup at home in Luanda. Under head coach Lazare Adingono, Petro defeated another Angolan team Rec do Libolo in the final. American point guard Manny Quezada received MVP honours.
