Tanzania’s $30bn gas plant set to “revolutionise” country

10 August 2016 | By GCR Staff

Tanzania and its oil industry partners are to invest $30bn in a gas processing plant that will lead to an “economic revolution”, according to the country’s energy minister.
Sospeter Muhongo, speaking to the Dar es Salaam Daily News, said the government had already embarked on the preliminary work and that Tanzanians should expect rapid growth to begin in a few years.

The Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC) will develop the project over a 40-month period along with a consortium of oil companies including BG Group (now owned by Royal Dutch Shell), Statoil, Exxon Mobil and UK-based independent Ophir Energy.

Modestus Lumato, TPDC’s principal petroleum engineer, told Construction Review Africa that the environmental impact assessment was scheduled to commence soon and would be carried out alongside the formulation of a Development Report Induction Plan.

The plant will be built in the southeastern Lindi administrative region. Most of Tanzania’s gas reserves are located in deep sea fields off its coast, although an onshore field was found in February, near Dar es Salaam.

Altogether, the country has estimated reserves of 1.6 trillion cubic metres, putting it 22nd between Egypt and Libya in the world rankings.

Mr Muhongo asked the public to remain calm as the government continued to set plans for the megaproject. He said it was “likely to take many years because it needed huge amounts of money, high skilled and experienced personnel as well as good supervision”.

He added: “I can tell you today that in the few coming years, Lindi and Mtwara will be the country’s economic hub. All investors are eying them because of gas and other resources.”

Alongside the gas plant, the government is planning a $1.9bn fertiliser plant, which it says will provide jobs for more than 5,000 Tanzanians.

As well as the purification and liquefaction plant, the government will construct about 200km of gas pipes.

Kwa nini kila mwandishi wa habari anaandika project cost ni $30billion dollars? Wanabadili conversion ya Tsh tu kila mwaka.....hakuna mtu mwenye uwezo hata wa kujiuliza tu approximate project cost inapatikanaje?

The cost of LNG is $30 bln is accurate unless u know another type of LNG! Mind it is not an oil refinery!

Can you elaborate a little bit more, a breakdown of $30 billion dollars...what does it constitute? Who are the contractors, is the deal done yet? Is $30 billion dollars a fixed project cost?

It is a Plant...not just LNG. I know several types of LNG Plants

look for the cost of two LNG train! BTW who r u to argue the cost of LNG given out by Ministry of Energy and minerals plus the companies about to invest?

Tanzania says LNG project could cost up to $30 bln
Thu Nov 13, 2014 2:38pm GMT
By Fumbuka Ng'wanakilala

DAR ES SALAAM (Reuters) - A planned liquefied natural gas (LNG) export plant to develop Tanzania's vast gas reserves could cost up to $30 billion, the energy minister said, but declined to reveal the proposed site for the liquefaction facility.

East Africa has become one of the world's hottest new oil and gas areas after a string of discoveries, which producers hope to exploit to feed energy-hungry Asia. Many top companies such as BG Group, Exxon Mobil and Statoil are at work in Tanzania to tap its gas reserves.

Tanzania and its southern neighbour, Mozambique, are locked in a race to be first to export gas from Africa's eastern seaboard after huge discoveries offshore recently that could transform their struggling economies.

"The investment in this LNG plant is between $20 billion and $30 billion," the Energy and Minerals Minister Sospeter Muhongo told a news conference on Thursday.

"Preparations are underway... we will make formal announcements when everything is ready."

Muhongo declined to give details on how the cost of the LNG project would be met, or say if the government had given final approval for the location of the LNG terminal.

He said the LNG terminal would be the "biggest investment in the history of the country" and that the government was in talks with the energy majors over the launch of the project.

Tanzania is estimated to have 53.2 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of gas, which it said could rise four-fold over the next five years, putting it on par with some Middle East producers.

Britain's BG Group and its partners, Ophir Energy, Exxon Mobil and Statoil plan to invest in a two-train LNG plant in Tanzania's southern Lindi region, according to energy sources.

Muhongo said the government was in the final stages of drafting a long-delayed new gas legislation, but declined to reveal when it would be sent to parliament for approval.

"The gas legislation is about 75 percent complete. We will make sure the legislation is in place before major investments are made," he said.

Analysts warned that recent demands by a parliamentary committee for all oil and gas contracts in Tanzania to be made public could further delay progress in the sector. Muhongo said the government would not make the contracts public without the consent of investors due to confidentiality clauses.

Hiyo unayosema train hainunuliwi kama gari. Inajengwa baada ya kuwa designed na wataalamu. Design siku zote hutegemea na mahitaji. Kwa maana hiyo gharama ya mradi inaweza kubadilika iwapo mahitaji/design itabadilika. Mpaka sasa makampuni hayajaamua kuwekeza, which means design bado!
Hiyo figure ni approximate...na inavary kila kukicha...so sio sahihi kutumia $30 billion kwa miaka yote!

Tanzania going ahead with LNG project

In East Africa, the government of Tanzania is set to undertake an environmental impact assessment (EIA) in late August for a liquefied natural gas (LNG) project valued at $30 billion.


According to local media the BusinessWeek, global energy solutions firm BG Group has partnered with the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC) to erect the power plant. The site identified by government for the LNG project is situated at Likong'o Village in the Lindi Region.


TPDC principal petroleum engineer Modestus Lumato disclosed to the media that the EIA is anticipated to commence soon and will be undertaken parallel to the Development Report Induction Plan.

He stated that the two studies, which will be conducted over a period of three months would determine whether it is viable to develop the project at the identified site.

“We expect to finalise the implementation of the primary investigations by the end of this year. After the EIA is completed we will then start compensating people whose land will be taken,” Lumato said.

According to the media, there are reports showing that TPDC owns a title deed for 2,071.705 hectares for construction of the project.

What the EIA entails
It is reported that the assessments will be divided into two segments. The first study being known as the Free Front End Engineering Design, which would be followed by the Front End Engineering Design (FEED). The FEED will mostly entail an engineering design approach to control project expenses.


Lumato explained that the completion of the FEED process is important to determine the outcome of the project before jumping in for the final investment decision in order to commence with construction.


LNG expertise
The media reported that until two years ago, it was anticipated that the development of this project would create over 10,000 new direct jobs and thousands more indirectly.

However, as the country is said to lack sufficient human resource capacity in developing this project, as such there is a risk that local skills will loose out to competitors from outside the country.

According to the media there are currently very limited numbers of engineering, construction and procurement firms that specialise in building LNG plants in Tanzania.
