Turkana oilfields development and operating plan approval faces fresh delays following the sale of the project to Gulf Energy, further deferring Kenya’s ambitions of earning petrodollars.
Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi on Tuesday said that the approval could be delayed if Gulf Energy decides to submit a fresh plan instead of the one that Tullow presented for consideration last year. Crafting a development plan for oilfields is a complex and lengthy process.
