Bro we have our own refinery for local use at Changamwe. Oil is only exported as crude oil.This way it is cheaper to transport than if its purchased in different products.Its upon the buyer to go and process it
Low Sulphur content but high wax content making it require a heated pipeline. This is such a capital intensive and high operating cost venture, that I wonder who will be ready to put money into it. Might take the next 50 years for this to be a reality. By the way, it is in the open that the initial batch of mined (~200,000 barrels) was sold to ChemChina at a value of KES 12B. Whoever gained from it, is another question.
It's not all about exporting rather than selling it locally and the neighboring countries..... The government should focus on refining the oil and do off with the oil crisis that has been on place for a long time
There is a refinery built in Lamu port for export if I am not wrong, that is why they want to put a pipeline from Turkana to Lamu for the Lapsett project.
There's no refinary industry in lamu but there's oil extraction in lamu along Kenya- Somali border which is working since 2014 being extracted by America
Kenyans are the one who shall develop the country. Hydrogen sulfide should not be an issue of downgrading our crude oil as it can be easily removed by steel wool filtration.
They have lower levels, they should stop the stupidity of westerners claiming clean energy.. let’s use our dirty energy when we get levels of the west we stop all together
OK, checks done..Tullow are from Ireland UK.. question every Kenyan should be asking now is : what is Kenya gaining? After seeing what happened to West Africa, I want to know how this will benefit Kenya. Why export crude oil..People are asking...instead of refining it and selling it as so. Can citizen tv please answer these queries? C'est tout.
You need to develop refinery, it doesn't fall down from heaven. Have you asked yourself if Kenya has the right capacity to build and maintain a refinery. I mean Kenya has such a bad business environment and everything gets politicized that even that refinery building process can not happen.
Do you think we have 3 billion USD+ to build a new refinery? At most Kenya will produce 100k barrels per day, to operate a refinery successfully and not make losses, a production rate of at least 250,000 bpd is needed.

This produce should benefit the locals the country and Tullow,we don't want the bad manners of France goverment and firms in some other African countries.This oil is our treasure.
Then tunajiita the giant of east Africa na hutuwezi manage kuitengeneza oil refinery,,it could be better if we collaborate with ug and make our refinery together if it's expensive.
The government of Kenya and Tullow should expedite the process to ensure that Kenyan citizens can benefit from the country's oil reserves. If swift action is not taken, the rising dominance of electricity and gas as primary energy sources could diminish the potential benefits of oil. Additionally, timely development and efficient management of oil resources can significantly boost the national economy, create jobs, and improve infrastructure, enhancing the overall well-being of the Kenyan population.
Let’s forget about it! Kenya 🇰🇪is in full gear towards the development and adoption of clean and renewable energy sources! We are already embracing electric mobility and production of biofuels! Hii mafuta ya turkana should be abandoned! Not needed anyway!
News about this discovery has been scanty. What we know is that we don't have commercially viable deposits and neither do we have the infrastructure to transport it...we are kept busy news but not by progress
Hii inataka maandamano ili cruide oil isitoke nje ya nchi,,,, kama serikali haina means heri mafuta ikae tu kuliko kuitoa ikawe refined kwengine KUUMANINA
We are telling the world we are mere educated fools. Why export crude oi if our brains are working? Kenya as a country will continue to be more poor and poorer. Who bewitched these tiny minds? Mupeane crude oil, isafishwe halafu muuziwe kwa bei kubwa zaidi. Mwatumia hakili kufikiria au kamasi? Waone!! 🙄
The crude oil was sold but the money can not be traced😅😅😅😅I hope it will not be like other countries in Africa where oil doesn’t benefit citizens only few cartels.
Haaah hapa tumekuja kupiga hesabu Tangu hii kitu igunduliwe Mangapi mumeigiza Ndoo ngapi mume chimba Sii ati munakuja hapa kupiga Kupiga kelele tu ati haaaaaa hakuna mafuta Na mafuta imejaa Kenya tooooh Nini mbaya na vichwa zenyu 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@citizentv tell Tullow to contact the guy who refines plastic waste to produce fuel. Otherwise this won't work. It hasn't helped most African countries and Kenya isn't special especially under this hungry government.
The FDP story does not have facts. FDP is with the Authority to interrogate it for advice to CS for approval. Then forward to the Parliament for ratification. Consult government for facts and am sure the truth is there I believe.
Have your own refineries to produce end products instead of planning to export crude oil. Who bewitched Africans 😢
Exactly 💯

Action speaks louder than words
What about initial phase which started during Uhuru reign??? What do you mean by extraction n why so late????

Oil is about refinement. Why Africa doesn't process its own raw materials has always always been its undoing.

Bado the lamu refinery hasn’t been built yet, haijatoka hata planning stage.

They mentioned it contains lower levels though. So a plus,
@@JLanoyes you have understood the explanation well. Meaning it is better than other countries explorations.

Wajuaji ndio wengi huku
The only hope kenya has if it will be handled in a transparent manner

We are cursed walahi
Thats very good,and please tell us if you know ,what happened to the oil that was sent out for refining,during the handshake nonsense
Ur the nonsense stupid idiot
Still being colonised through our leadership
Bring companies from other places.. there's alot of gas and oil in northeastern Kenya
Can't we buy it refine and use it here in kenya....must we export then import
why should we continue importing expensive crude oil when we can use the locally crude oil ?
Do not celebrate what you don't know the terms and conditions...we will still keep importing..ordinary Kenyan will still buy expensive fuel.
Finally, after the long wait, a good start of commercial production of crude in Kenya. It will reduce over taxation of Kenyans through VAT.
Endelea kuota mzee .sukar inatengezwa kenya na bado iko ghali

Do you even understand what is VAT and its scope? if you want to avoid VAT consume fresh farm produce they are zero rated worldwide

Very cleaver they are making this move because Kenya is going green

Promising opportunities of developing country
Why not refine the oil in Kenya? Can join with Uganda and build a regional refinery
Uganda and Tanzania are doing an oil and gas project together in Tanga, Tz. May have the regional refinery.
Then tunajiita the giant of east Africa na hutuwezi manage kuitengeneza oil refinery,,it could be better if we collaborate with ug and make our refinery together if it's expensive.
Am of the same opinion
Turkana residents wamecheswo
The government of Kenya and Tullow should expedite the process to ensure that Kenyan citizens can benefit from the country's oil reserves. If swift action is not taken, the rising dominance of electricity and gas as primary energy sources could diminish the potential benefits of oil. Additionally, timely development and efficient management of oil resources can significantly boost the national economy, create jobs, and improve infrastructure, enhancing the overall well-being of the Kenyan population.
Finally some good news 🙌
I'll celebrate after accountability checks ✔️ are done and see what the country is benefiting in.
this is not good news something bad and dangerous is about to land.
Oil is mostly a curse
Why can't the said oil refinery company be constructed here in Kenya?

Who will be the beneficiaries?

Your partly right and wrong at the same time..Kenya's needs foreign reverse usd to stay afloat. So the oil exportation will be a game changer

Why export it while it can be refined in Kenya?
Refinery ilifungwa 2013
What's the need of exporting crude oil while we have a refinery that domant😢??
To benefit those with big tummies
Process and sell locally. If it's in plenty sell to neighbors in east Africa.
Just understand total and Nigeria own this project
Why export and not use locally
Using which refinery in Kenya???

Why export?
Why not establish a refinery here in the country?

Great Diversities of advices to our supreme government if our hydrocarbon in the reservoirs are commercially viable do something
ati exporting crude oil …. we should be exporting refined oil
Why can't we export already refined petroleum.

I see it that way too. Mind numbing the people to cling to some level of hope and route out the despair that rouses revolt.
Fuel should cost 100 max
Yet we do not have any oil reserve
Uk have a company to extract oil but have no oil in their country !!!!
Why not use the money to build a refinery instead of a pipeline?
