The government intends to build a crude-export pipeline via Tanzania.\u00a0Kenyan Mombasa Port has already been fighting to stave off growing competition from the Tanzanian ports of Dar es Salaam and Tanga. However, Mr Wakasenza said Uganda is comfortable with Mombasa port, but the country needs an alternative route for strategic reasons. &#8220;We are targeting oil because it is a product used daily.&#8221;\u00a0 He said. He added\u00a0 that there may be interest in the route from other importers\u00a0as Uganda&#8217;s demand for petroleum imports is rising at an annual rate of 7 percent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kenya&#8217;s vexation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With Kampala looking to Dar es Salaam, the potential loss of the lucrative petroleum transshipment business has jolted officials in Nairobi, according to some sources, Kenya invested $400 million in the rehabilitation of its oil pipeline network from Mombasa to Eldoret,and holding facilities in Eldoret.<\/p>\n<p>Kenya also constructed a $170 million fuel jetty in Kisumu in anticipation of transferring part of the fuel via Lake Victoria.<\/p>\n<p>While some Kenyan officials have put on a brave face, the chipping away of business is likely to increase\u00a0as the country enters full electioneering mode in the coming month.<\/p>\n<p>The falling between President Kenyatta and his deputy Dr William Ruto is causing jitters and a bare-knuckle duel is shaping up between the two estranged\u00a0politicians who were elected on the same ticket in the elections in 2013 and 2017.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_31821\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-31821\" style=\"width: 692px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-31821\" src=\"https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/kenya\/sites\/28\/2021\/07\/195-60f5efa5a2833-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"692\" height=\"519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/kenya\/sites\/28\/2021\/07\/195-60f5efa5a2833-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/kenya\/sites\/28\/2021\/07\/195-60f5efa5a2833-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/kenya\/sites\/28\/2021\/07\/195-60f5efa5a2833-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/static.africa-press.net\/kenya\/sites\/28\/2021\/07\/195-60f5efa5a2833.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 692px) 100vw, 692px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-31821\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tanzania ports of Dar es Salaam<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Truth or denial?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kenya Pipeline Corporation managing director Macharia Irungu told that Uganda&#8217;s\u00a0attempt to re-route shipments through Tanzania ports of Dar es Salaam and Tanga would not impact its business much, noting that less than these percent of fuel cargo will go through the central Corridor.<\/p>\n<p>Kenya transports about 900 million litres of petroleum products per month and is banking on Tanzania&#8217;s inadequate\u00a0fuel transport infrastructure to retain the Ugandan petroleum transshipment\u00a0business.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mombasa port other partners<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mombasa port also serves Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan, Burundi and Tanzania.
