The Port of Mombasa has finalised the preliminary designs for the development of a crude oil handling facility, according to Kenya Ports Authority managing director Gichiri Ndua.
The new modern oil terminal, which will replace the current Kipevu Oil Terminal, will be built at a newly identified site within the harbour. “The geo-technical investigations will be ready by the New Year,” said Ndua, “and we will tender for construction in early 2016.”
