The issue is NOT only exporting but how MUCH and which way is appropriate to export the oil. Exporting oil is not like other goods, it's always sensitive to economies of scale. Transporting oil by lorries (in this case I refers it as Kirikuu) is a loss. It's like azam company decides to ship corn flowers to up country by Kirikuu. It'll take more TIME, more money, etc. So this option for Kenyans, means high operation cost.

Kenya is set to begin transporting the first batch of its Crude oil from the Lokichar oilfields — about 550km northwest of the capital Nairobi — to its storage facilities at the coastal city of Mombasa in readiness for export, moving closer to its dream of becoming a major oil producer.

Beginning this week, some 2,000 barrels of oil will be trucked from Lokichar to Changamwe daily, marking the beginning of the Early Oil Pilot Scheme (EOPS), which was supposed to kick off in June 2017, but was delayed mainly by disagreements over how revenues from the exports would be shared.

Kenya struck oil in the Lokichar Basin in 2012, with total recoverable reserves estimated at 750 million barrels.

President Uhuru Kenyatta is expected to flag off the first trucks on the 992km Lockichar-Kitale-Eldoret-Nairobi-Mombasa journey.

The Ministry of Petroleum said on Wednesday that it plans to accumulate about 400,000 barrels in Changamwe by December before it begins small-scale exports which are expected to pave the way for full field production by 2021.

“Once we have accumulated 400,000 barrels of oil, we will then begin a tendering process and sell to the bidder with the best price,” said Petroleum Principal Secretary Anthony Kamau.

Stockpiling barrels

Mr Macharia has said that the oil will be sold to international buyers through competitive bidding. Refining firms and international traders will be invited to bid once the cargo is stockpiled at Kenya Petroleum Refineries in Mombasa.

Mr Kamau said international tender for submission of bids is expected to be floated before the end of 2018 and crude will be sold to a bidder who offers Kenya the best price.

“Crude is expected to be discounted at $2 a barrel of prevailing price. The EOPS is not a commercial business venture but aims to establish a market before commercial crude production in 2022,” he said.

The EastAfrican, however, understands that it could take close to a year before the first batch of oil leaves the country for the international market, as it will take at least eight months to haul the 400,000 barrels to Changamwe.

Currently, Kenya has 80,000 barrels of crude stored in Lokichar awaiting transportation and is adding between 400 and 500 barrels per day.

The transportation will involve at least 110 specialised trucks with a capacity of 150 barrels each, making the 992km journey that could take over one week for a round trip.

According to the Petroleum Ministry, Kenya’s production capacity is expected to continue growing to about 2,000 barrels per day by 2019 and top 80,000 barrels once the construction of the 892km pipeline linking the Lokichar oilfields and the port of Lamu is completed.

Rais Uhuru leo anakata utepe kwa lori la kwanza kwenye msafara utakaosafirisha mafuta ghafi kuelekea Mombasa. Hii inaingia kwenye historia kama taifa la kwanza EAC kuuza mafuta na ni mwanzo mzuri ambao mafanikio yake ya siku za usoni yatabadilisha nchi pakubwa, haswa ukanda huo wa Kaskazini ambao kwa muda mrefu umetelekezwa.

Mahesabu yalishafanywa ya kuhakikisha wakazi na wazawa wa ukanda wote huo watanufaika, waliridhia kila kitu baada ya mazungumzo ya kina yaliyohusisha wawakilishi wao. Mungu ibariki Kenya na Afrika, maana mwanga mpya unaanza kuonekana kwa mbali.

Pia bomba la mafuta tayari limeanza kufanyiwa kazi na ni muda mfupi litafukiwa.

President Uhuru Kenyatta is expected in Turkana today for the flagging off the first batch of crude oil from Lokichar oil fields.

State House spokesman Manoah Esipisu confirmed the trip via a tweet from the Sagana State Lodge on Sunday morning.

"From a Kenyan treasure, heading to treasure. Mt Kenya looms large in the background as we head to Turkana to catch a glimpse of our oil," he stated.

The president is expected to address revenue sharing concerns among residents who are not comfortable with the 5 per cent share of proceeds from the mineral.

Following a meeting with Turkana leaders at State House last month, Uhuru announced that the public will get 75 per cent through the national government.

The county would get 20 per cent while the local community will be guaranteed five per cent of the proceeds if the pilot succeeds.

It is the first time Kenya is extracting oil resources in the northern part of the country.

Tullow Oil Plc, the company exploring the resource, says an estimated 60,000 barrels of crude oil will be produced from the Ngamia and Amosing fields per day.

The president is also expected to address infrastructure challenges as the region is reeling under the effects of flooding which has rendered most roads impassable.

The bad state of Kainuk bridge, which is the main link to Turkana, poses threats to the smooth movement of trucks ferrying oil from the mine fields.
The mineral will be hauled by road in wait for a 900km export pipeline whose construction is underway.

Tullow Oil Plc, according to Business Daily, has hired WorleyParsons - an Australia based firm, and UK's Wood companies, to offer services for the foundation phase of the project.

Turkana Governor Josphat Nanok has urged locals to allow the first crude to be transported and tested for the market.

This followed resistance by locals led by rights activist Simeon Ricardo who termed the deal of oil revenue share as about "self-interests" and one that didn't involve the community.

"Our leaders need to know they serve our interests. If anything concerns the community, they should consult us first," Ricardo said.

Turkana is the poorest county in Kenya. The Kenya National Bureau of Statistics says 88 per cent of the people live below the poverty level, compared to 45 per cent nationally.

Oil was discovered in Lokichar, 90 kilometres from Lodwar, in 2012, and most locals hope the start of output will accelerate development.
