Total to dictate the direction of Kenya's oil to the overseas market

[Livale]

One question sir, can you just tell me how much oil will be available from that one billion barrels?, remember that it is only 30% of the amount discovered can be extracted, that is the science of oil, you can't fight againts it, read all documents on oil engineering will tell you the same, and this amount which can be extracted is refered as recoverble oil, Uganda with 6B barrels discovered, they do expect to recover only 1.6B, so why do you think Kenya can recover 100% of its oil?.

As usual, lots of words, zero proven facts. I'll otherwise bring you to light on those factors

1)Countries/companies on declaring oil findings term the as oil reserves. Oil reserves denote the amount of crude oil that can be technically recovered with financial viability at the prevailing price of oil. So when you hear them say Ugandan oil reserves are say 5mn barrels, that is the amount of recoverable oil in Uganda. The total oil find could be way higher but that figure is of no importance as it ain't viable

2)Oil recovery is split into 3. 1st is primary recovery whereby water displacing oil naturally, natural gas at the top expanding etc push up to 15% the oil out of the well naturally. 2nd is secondary recovery whereby around 30% of the oil is forced out via gas/water injection into the reservoir to force out the oil. Last is enhanced recovery in which viscosity of the oil is altered by either heating or adding surface detergents hence enable it to be pumped out. That is another 5-15% of oil.

A total 50%-60% of all oil finds, which is thus termed as oil reserves/recoverable oil. Where you got your 30% I know not, if it's from Geza then it would be wise to know that he's not a viable source of info

So friend, Kenya's oil reserves/recoverable oil is that 750mn you so wish to reduce, yapping about it won't reduce it. And that is at current prices of $50per barrel. Any increment in the price increases our proven reserves thanks to enhanced recovery or step No 3

 

[Livale]

So r u Iraq or Nigeria? U r a fool mind u u have a territorial dispute with Somalia on border demarcation it might turn out even Lamu deep sea territory belongs to them! Total oil aren't stupid it is top 5 biggest oil company in the World with over 100 years of experience! BTW Total oil worthiness is bigger than Kenya's GDP itself.

Does Kenya look like Iraq or Nigeria to you? which is why the most economically sound route for our oil is on our own soil, built by our own government and half of it refined by our own refinery. All that stuff from Hoima to Tanga is foreign owned by some fleecing company that won't even clean up its mess in the Niger Delta.

 

[Geza Ulole]

There is a group called Niger delta Avengers in nigeria (google it) they are worse than boko haram interms of Financial damage, they blow up billion dollar pipelines on monthly basis. They have been wanting to secede from nigeria for a very long time and and controll all the oil regions in the delta..


Anyway, this was happening juzi

My friend, don't give yourself hope which doesn't exist just to give yourself orgasm, I know you have gone through wikipedia to get all information you are talking about, let me educate you
1)Most of the oil drilling companies don't go beyond secondary extraction, because as you go further down it becomes more expensive, unless the price of crude oil is higher at the world market, currently the price is not good as you know.
2)Secondary extraction increases recovery rate from 30 -45%, if you take average you get 37%, if you take average of the primary extraction which is 10%, total average is 47%
3) As you have seen on wikipedia, this is just estimate, but it depends very much on many factors, especially nature of rocks and viscosity of the crude oil its self, the higher the viscosity the lower the recovery rate
4)Uganda and Kenya crude oil is waxy under normal temperature and pressure, with very high viscosity, Uganda has done its scientific estimation before and it is 28%, nature of rocks in Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania are more less the same, that's why both Kenya and Uganda have waxy crude oil, if Uganda do accept that recoverble is 28%, lets pray so that Kenya's recoverble can be twice as much as that of Uganda, who knows

UPDATE 2-Uganda ups oil reserves estimate by 85 pct, finds natural gas
Read this article and see how much Uganda expect to get from its discovery of 6.5Barrels, just 1.4 to 1.6 barrels, which miracles are Kenyans planning to bring so that you can get above 30% ?

 

[Kafrican]

They r no way compared to Al Shaabab they do bunkering! And exists after oil infrastructure is there! On the othet In Lokichar n Lamu Al Shaabab n Shiftas n Mereli n cattle rustlers r already there before the pipeline is built waiting to cause mahyem. No bank will finance that pipeline!

Alshabaab attacked safcom masts because people and police use them to call for help when attacked.
Apart from that they have stayed away from other infrastructure that dont directly concern them eg bridges, sgr,airports,roads, water pipes, power plants..

Here are the damages done by NDA in nigeria in 2016 alone
That's around a billion in damages

Ok, Just before we go on with this seemingly endless argument, I'll need you to open the link below. Please if you don't mind, read it through.
Africa Oil Corp. - News Releases - press-releases

an even more detailed PD format is here
http://www.africaoilcorp.com/i/pdf/reports/2014-07-31_Gaffney_Cline_Resource_Estimate.pdf

Just as a summary, it puts the Gross oil contingent/3C estimate(what in layman terms is total oil finds) at 1.63bn barrels and the unrisked oil contingent/ 2C estimate (in layman terms recoverable oil) at 766m barrels.

Comment on those figures and data then tutarudi kwa hii argument yetu. Your response is of Paramount importance to the direction of this argument.

Nimesoma na nimemuelewa anachosema, kwanza tukubaliane vitu vya msingi ili tuweze kuwa sambamba, kwamba percentage ya recoverble oil kati ya Uganda na Kenya na South Sudani haziwezi kutofautiana sana, ukizingatia aina ya mwamba unaopatikana katika Rift valley ambayo karibu imepitia nchi zote hizi, tofauti itatokea kama mafuta yatagundulika baharini deep see, huko ndiko recoverble inaweza kuongezeka, lakini Hoima, Lokichar na Ziwa Tanganyika yote yana mwamba na hali ya hewa inayofanana, sasa kama Uganda recoverble ni kati 28% to 30% haiwezi kupishana sana na Kenya, the best Kenya inaweza kupata is 35%

Mpaka sasa taarifa nilizonazo ni kwamba Kenya discovery yake ni kati ya 800M to 1B barrels, sijawahi kusikia Kenya imepata crude oil zaidi ya 1B barrels, kama una taarifa za uhakika juu ya upatikanaji zaidi huko Kenya above 1B barrels nitaomba unitumia reliable sources ili nione.

Tukishakubaliana katika hilo la kwanza juu ya kiwango cha recoverble, kwa kuangalia kinachotokea Uganda, na technical information uliyosoma wikipedia ambayo inakupa 15% during primary extraction and 45% during secondary extraction at the highest levels, if you add them and you divide by two, the average is 30%, exactly what Uganda gets, which is very important point for our discussion, then all other stages of discussion will be easy, why do you think Kenya will recover more than 30%?, which oil engineering method Kenya will deploy on the ground to increase its output above normal 30%. Remember I have taken the highest levels of recovery, if you use lowest levels which are 5% for primary extraction and 35% for secondary extraction, the average is 20%.

To begin with, Wikipedia ain't my source. Io ni kitu mimi na wewe twaweza edit. This is my source
http://science.uwaterloo.ca/~mauric...aterilas/CO2_EOR_Misciblein Europe21895EN.pdf

Now to serious matters. a correction 1st. You do not add Primary, secondary and enhanced (which you're ignoring) methods then divide by their No to find their average as you are. You simply add them up as they are more like steps in extraction.

Then your notion that EOR (enhanced oil recovery) methods aren't practiced by most companies is wrongly founded. >50% of Russian and 60% of US oil is EOR achieved. And this are the 1st and 3rd largest oil producers respectively in the world.

Then link nishakupea hapo juu niliyokuomba uisoma.Ni by the exact oil exploration company that was submitted to the GoK and apparently OPEC showing total proven reserves at 1.63bbl of oil of which 766mbl are recoverable at current prices. The figure to increase should oil prices improve. What you are asking for now and why you are refuting that I don't know, you ask yourself that. Ndio hii tena

Kaka mbona unakimbia ukweli?, wikipedia imesema wazi kwamba hiyo enhanced method is very expensive, inatumika tu pale ambapo bei ya mafuta ipo juu sana, na itakapothibitika kiwango cha mafuta yaliyoko ardhini yataweza kulipa gharama, akimaanisha ni mengi nw bei yake ipo juu, kwa sasa hivi bei ya mafuta ipo chini sana, hata kama kuna makampuni ambayo yalikuwa yanafanya, sasa havi lazima yasimamishe kutokana na bei kuwa chini, hiyo ni biashara sio siasa kaka, hakuna anayependa kupata hasara, kwa hiyo hiyo enhanced method is not a common prectice, kama una ushahidi kuna kampuni linaloitumia hii njia kwa sasa nitaomba link nijifunze zaidi.

Kuhusu hizi percentage, hizi huwezi kujumlisha kwa sababu hizi bado ni estimates sio exact figures zilizopatikana, ngoja nikupe mfano wa 1B barrels:
1)Primary extraction itatoa 5% to 15%, Kwa sababu hii ni range, unaweza kupata kati ya 5 hadi 15%, ukitaka kufanyia kazi ili kujua reasonable amount utakayopata, lazima ujumlisha, then ugawanye kwa mbili, hii maana yake, probable utapata in between, yaani 10%, unaweza ukazidi hiyo au kupungua lakini uwezekano mkubwa utapata hiyo jirani sana na hiyo 10%, Kwa hiyo hii 10% unaweza comfortably kuitumia kama exact figure.

Kuhusu tofauti kati ya Kenya na Uganda, ninadhani katika hili uzalendo ndiyo unaokuumiza zaidi ya ukweli, hali ya mwamba wa Kenya na Uganda is xactly the same na maeneo yote yaliyogunduliwa mafuta Kenya na Uganda yamepitiwa na Rift valley, factor hiyo ndiyo inayoipa nguvu Tanzania kwamba pia mafuta yatapatikana kwa sababu Geological feature and characteristics are the same as that of Huima and Lokachiar. Katika kipingele hiki wala usipoteze nguvu, to be on safe side, whata Uganda gets, is more less the same will get Kenya, Tanzania, DRC, Rwanda and Burundi, if they discover oil, unless one uses different technology, but Geography is the same.

Kuhusu kiwango cha mafuta kilichogunduliwa Kenya, mimi ninachojua mpaka sasa ni hicho nilichokutumia kwenye gazeti la standard, wewe umetuma gazeti lingine, we need more sources to compare, I hope other members in this forum can contribute on this too

I need not give you a link to certain company practicing EOR since it is all the large oil companies. Google on the "seven sisters", Canadian sand, oil Rozneft, Gazprom, Lukeoil etc. For a more exact and direct understanding, search on oil fracking. It's the main reason OPEC has dumped oil in the market to try and lessen EOR profitability.

kisha umetoa link ya gazeti la Kenya ambalo mara nyingi waTz mwasema lapika data. Mie nimekupa the link to the company that actually carried out the exploration alongside tullow oil, Africa Oil corp. That's their actually findings on the field. I'll let you choose which is a more credible source of info here

Hapo kwa percentage nikama hatupatani. You earlier said if we pick the highest of primary prod at 15% and secondary at 45%, you add the 2 and devide by 2 and get 30% recoverable oil. That's not how they arrive at recoverable oil.

Once you drill a well, the down force of water and gas will naturally push up to 15% of total oil out. Now you've recoverable 15% of oil and remain with 85% of unrecovered oil. You employ secondary means and could recover up to 45% more oil. You now have only about 40% of your initial reserves left. EOR could help you get out some 15% more oil. This means on a higher estimate, all 3 methods could help you recover 15%+45%+15%=75% of total proven reserves, while a lower estimate is 5%+30%+5%=40%. But the average of 10%+37%+10%=57% is more accept and is thus termed as the recoverable oil

I will concentrate only the last part of recoverble because you have failed to prove or give me a link which shows a company currently carrying out enhanced method, failure to give me a link means you haven't seen it any where and you are not sure, if you have given me a link on quantity of oil in Kenya, why are you not able to do the same on this, you don't have and you will never get it, I challenge you on this to show me, I am confident on this 100% you don't know any company and there is none.

About recoverble oil, now tell me the recovery rate at primary extraction is between 5% to 15%, if a company decides to stop at this stage without going to secondary stage, what percentage the company is likely going to get?
2)Uganda is expecting to get 1.4B from 6.5B barrels, from your calculation what percent is this, does it fit in your school of thought?, if Uganda doesn't much from its oil, what is wrong with Uganda and Total?, are engineers from Total should be fired instead you replace them because you a better than all of them?

Concetrating on the last I pressume means the others have settled your queries. That's good progress

On your last point, that is not my school of thought, it's the worldwide oil sector school of thought whose link I gave you. Even your wikipedia source follows the same. So you want to change their thinking and publications? Edit their links? Discredit all research done or what? If Uganda is an anomaly so what?
