Is Dangote an expert in oil and gas?Stop using "if". Dangote has already decided where he wants the refinery to be built. 😂😂🤣
The money belongs to him, and yes, he is more experienced in the oil business than anyone else in East Africa.Is Dangote an expert in oil and gas?
The same script is going to be repeated on the refinery.This was what ur media was reporting before EACOP started!

Kenya’s first crude oil pipeline takes shape

Kenya is moving towards construction of its first crude oil pipeline from Turkana oilfields to the Coast with the line design and environmental audit expected from July.
British oil explorer Tullow, the developer of the Turkana oilfields, yesterday said engineering studies and contracting are ongoing in preparation for the pipeline’s final design, dubbed front end engineering design (FEED).
Construction of the 865-kilometre pipeline between Lokichar and Lamu was estimated last year to be completed in the second quarter of 2021 at a cost of Sh210 billion.
The line will enable Kenya to pump out about 100,000 barrels a day for exports.
“The Kenya Joint Venture and the government of Kenya continue to progress the export pipeline commercial and finance studies and preparations are under way for the environmental social impact assessment (ESIA) and FEED, which are planned for the second half of 2017,” Tullow said in its update yesterday.
The joint venture comprises Tullow Oil, Canada-based Africa Oil and Danish firm Maersk which are jointly developing Kenya’s oilfields.
Turkana oil is classified as waxy and sticky, making it necessary to heat it during transportation, a quality that is expected to determine the design of the pipeline.
Kenya has so far struck 750 million barrels of oil, considered commercially viable, with ongoing exploration indicating the figure is likely to cross the billion mark.
Nairobi opted to go it alone in building the pipeline after Uganda, which originally favoured a route though Kenya, said it would build its line through Tanzania.
Kenya is banking on oil exports to earn the country the much-needed petrodollars and help stem the rising tide of public debt that now stands at Sh3.8 trillion or half the gross domestic product (GDP).
In the moment, the country plans small-scale oil exports (2,000 barrels per day) from June to test the receptivity of the oil in the global market, pending construction of the pipeline.
Petroleum principal secretary Andrew Kamau last week said the first sea tankers will dock at the Mombasa port in June to pick up the consignment transported from northern Kenya by road and stored at the Mariakani refinery tanks.
China and India have emerged as the main buyers of the Turkana crude oil.
Tullow has already pumped out and stored 60,000 barrels of crude in Lokichar in readiness for transportation to Mombasa.

Punguza wivu.He's more on his summer annual vacation than in any serious real bilateral economic summit, kinda like Kenya is like those voodoo countries to him, you can't see him having these kind of activities in any sensible nation like Morocco or Namibia
In this state visit all you will hear is, France is doing this and that for kenya, you will never hear france is going to receive this and that...
Crude oil refinery needs the following:uzuri sisi tumeshika mpini! OP inaishia Tanga so we have upperhand in this! tunajua kelele zao ati Tanga with the most modern terminal in Africa is not deep water port! Yaani wanamaanisha crude oil itabebwa na mitumbwi kutoka Chongoleani! These people r wicked!

Yes, in Lake Tanganyika, that's why TOTAL wanted the pipeline to pass via that route cause of the DRC and TZ oil fields owned by TOTAL.Does Tanzania have any oil?
Mwambie (Kuna Bonde la Eyasi-Wembere na vilevile kuna Ziwa Rukwa) Mafuta huko yapo. Wenyewe wanapiga kelele sisi huwa tunatoa taarifa baada ya kila kitu kuwa tayari.Yes, in Lake Tanganyika, that's why TOTAL wanted the pipeline to pass via that route cause of the DRC and TZ oil fields owned by TOTAL in that area.
He relies on the advice of experts in that field to make informed decision.The money belongs to him, and yes, he is more experienced in the oil business than anyone else in East Africa.
Unaezapelekea Dangote hizi factors, sijui unaziweka hapa JF tukusaidie aje?😀Crude oil refinery needs the following:
1. Gas to run the refinery (Tanga best option- cheap gas is readily available in TZ, gas pipeline infrastructure is in place)
2. Large Land area for the refinery and its associated petrochemical industries near the port (Plenty of prime land near Tanga port)
3. Port for oil transportation (Tanga port oil terminal 23m depth, port basin area 23m deep)
4. Available logistics to the markets (Refined oil pipeline to Zambia, Malawi, DRC, and Zimbabwe; Gas pipeline from Mtwara and Kilwa to DSM; Rail to Rwanda, Burundi, and DRC)
5. Efficiency in land acquisition, decision-making, and implementation (Land is government property in Tz, hence a quick acquisition process, demonstrated capabilities in decision-making and implementation in recent projects, EACOP.
6. Security is very important for any investor (Tanga is far from the Somali Alshabaab militia)
All these odds are stacked up against Mombasa or Lamu. If you were a technocrat, which location would you choose? Jibu jipe mwenyewe.
Tuliwashow hii imeenda. 🤣🤣🤣
Jengeni refinery huko basiYes, in Lake Tanganyika, that's why TOTAL wanted the pipeline to pass via that route cause of the DRC and TZ oil fields owned by TOTAL.
Sijajua bado nadhani itakuwa cargo kwaajili ya port marshaling na standby locos if electricity ikiwa na hitilafu for passengers' convenience.za aina gani? cargo au passengers?
I won't be surprised kama Museveni himself also leaves his swearing in to come and attend the summit in Kenya.
kuna kikao kizitoMama kaenda UG leo.
