Summary
- The LPG cost in Mombasa is much higher than in Dar es Salaam LPG because the offloading and storage infrastructure at Dar es Salaam or Tanga ports is more efficient.

Kenya seeks to dominate in the supply of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) by constructing the biggest import and storage gas facility in Mombasa and licensing more private companies to compete with Tanzania which has dominated the business for years in the region.
The announcement to construct a 25,000 tonnes storage facility by the Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) which will connect to the Ksh42 billion new Kipevu Oil Terminal 2 (KOT) at the port of Mombasa comes few days after Kenya banned imports of gas from Tanzania through the Namanga border.
KPC has contracted a giant Pakistani firm; Petrochem Engineering Services to design LPG import and storage facility in Changamwe, Mombasa as five private companies apply to tap into the new Kipevu Oil Terminal 2.
The facility in Mombasa once completed will quicken the loading of cooking gas for distribution by trucks which will help to cut demurrage costs.
KPC says faster loading is expected to translate to lower prices for LPG by 30 percent once operational as oil marketing companies pass the benefits of reduced demurrage costs to consumers.
“LPG storage capacity in Mombasa is limited and huge demurrage is incurred by LPG ships thus affecting the final consumer price of bottled gas,” read part of KPC in tender documents.
“KPC proposes to install, commission and operate a 500 tonnes per day LPG truck loading facility which will enhance product evacuation and as such ease ullage constraints and subsequently reduce demurrage costs.”
Limited LPG storage capacity in Mombasa has meant that ships stay longer at the port, leading to higher demurrage costs which are then transferred to consumers thus paying high prices of bottled gas.
KPC currently receives imported LPG from ships berthed at the Shimanzi Oil Terminal and puts it into its tanks - T610 and T611 located within its Changamwe facility the product is then evacuated to local terminals through inter-connecting pipelines for truck loading and bottling respectively.
The lack of loading gantries for truck loading has been a challenge to gas companies and the facility once complete will allow companies to ferry gas in trucks which has proved to be economically viable.
With the completion of KOT2 with a capacity to connect different gas suppliers, the business which has been controlled by a few companies will end the monopoly as already five companies have applied to connect to the terminal at the port of Mombasa.
According to National Environment Management Authority (Nema) and Energy Regulatory Authority (ERC), more than five companies have applied to get license from to construct gas facilities.
Some of the companies which have applied for the license to tap in the submerged gas pipeline from KOT2 include Aevitas Investment, Mombasa Gas Terminal Limited (MGT), Lions Gate limited, Focus Container Freight Station and Mansa East Africa Limited.
Once licensed, they will cater for the untapped LPG market with the increasing population and demand in the country and in the East African region.
Kenya imports about 40 percent of gas annually from Tanzanian liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) firms via the Namanga and Holili border posts and the remainder is imported through the Port of Mombasa.
The LPG cost in Mombasa is much higher than in Dar es Salaam LPG because the offloading and storage infrastructure at Dar es Salaam or Tanga ports is more efficient.
Early this month, Kenya started crackdown on gas importers from Tanzania as the country’s revenue authority Deputy Commissioner for Revenue and Regional Coordination Joseph Kaguru disclosed that the traders have been paying Value Added Tax (VAT) of eight percent instead of 16 percent.
Mr Kaguru added that the traders are shipping in the commodity from the Middle East and using the Namanga border point to pay lower taxes under the pretext they are sourcing it from Tanzania.
With the ongoing crackdown, Kenya is now is heavily relying on the new KOT 2 jetty project owned by Kenya Ports Authority (KPA) to open up the market, promote competition and to increase LPG consumption and reduce prices to citizens.
The new KOT2 project includes a dedicated berth and pipeline for LPG, which will now allow for larger vessels to call at the port of Mombasa promoting economies of scale and reducing handling costs drastically.

Hizo barabara zimezinduliwa lini? Barabara kilometers 11k hakuna barabara hata moja yenye urefu wa kilometers 500 ikiozinduliwa 😳 only fools will buy thisHilo swali niulize Mimi and hiyo kitu unaweka ya 2017 is accurate sababu ukiskiza hotuba ya uhuru alisema in the first term they did only 3k which is accurate by that tweet after that they did the rest niambie I give you proof unyamaze urudi kunywa uji wa asubuhi .
So wewe kutoka Kwa shimo yako huko Tanzania umegundua kitu hata Kenyan government officials or media haijagundua hehe okay wise man... And there is a point you missing most of the roads are for the second term which started in 2018 meaning most roads started completing from 2019, 2020 and 2021 even as we speak several roads are not done yet so Rudisha hicho kijikaratasi chako fake penye umetoa ufwate facts uwache kujiaimbiashaHe didn't only lie on cameras but on papers as well 😅😅😅😅

Data yenu hii hapa 😝😝😝Hii imekuwa hekaya za abunuasi. Mtu na kende zake mbili ananiuliza if I can challenge David Ndii wakati yeye data zote tumeleta hapa za WB, UNICEF, IMF, UN and many other reputable bodies amechallenge zote! How should such a person be handled?
Huyu alikua a naongelea barabara gani hapa? 😝😝😝😝So wewe kutoka Kwa shimo yako huko Tanzania umegundua kitu hata Kenyan government officials or media haijagundua hehe okay wise man...

There you go again with your old data... Hadi Sasa nakuinea huruma you so desperate to prove something that's not there lemmie update you with the new north estern roads that were completed last year, this the new look of the roads
Isiolo-Moyale road ni 525 kilometres na ilizinduliwa wakati wa utawala wa Uhuru Kenyatta.Hizo barabara zimezinduliwa lini? Barabara kilometers 11k hakuna barabara hata moja yenye urefu wa kilometers 500 ikiozinduliwa 😳 only fools will buy this
Usiniletee pictures za bitumen mzee 😝😝 kwani nani asiejua bitumen inafananaje? Leta inaugural events hizo kilometers zikizinduliwa, nataka evidence uhuru akikata utepe wa barabara za lami zenye urefu wa kilometers 11k sasa hivi 😆😆😆There you go again with your old data... Hadi Sasa nakuinea huruma you so desperate to prove something that's not there lemmie update you with the new north estern roads that were completed last year, this the new look of the roadsView attachment 2248836so please don't run around bringing old data to show how desperate you are to prove useless things... North estern roads were paved that's why there is too many kms Hadi zinawashtua mnababaika Kila Mahali kama kondoo zimepoteza mfugaji
Leta articles zenye hiyo habari sasa, leo tunahesabu kilometer 1 baada ya nyingine mpaka tumalize kilometers 11k za Uhuru 🤣🤣🤣🤣Isiolo-Moyale road ni 525 kilometres na ilizinduliwa wakati wa utawala wa Uhuru Kenyatta.
I think English is the problem here read again it says embarked on the competition meaning they weren't complete but they were either on process or in plan now those are the once that have completed in 2022 those are more than 5 years since that arrival was written and Uhuru said most of the roads were done in the second term... Nini ndo hauelewi hapo??? Niletee artical ya 2022 ama 2021 ndo ukue una make sense but hizo vitu unarokota huku unakimbiza humu Ni ujinga tu hausaidii roads were built in the last 4 years first get that in your mind then now Sasa anzia hapoHuyu alikua a naongelea barabara gani hapa? 😝😝😝😝

Okay seat back and watch I bring to you... For the major roads, but ofcos zile za inter counties governors ndo Wana launch si uhuru we are a devolved countryLeta articles zenye hiyo habari sasa, leo tunahesabu kilometer 1 baada ya nyingine mpaka tumalize kilometers 11k za Uhuru 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Huu ujinga nani huwa anawajaza? 👇l
It's true hatuwezi kulinganisha Kenya na Tanzania kwenye suala la maji kwa sababu Kenya is at 59% accessibility rate wakati wewe hata data ya nchi yako ndio huyajui.
Sitaki Wikipedia, nataka kutoka kwenye local newspapers, Rais ni mtu mkubwa, hawezi kwenda kuzindua kilometers 11k usiku usiku bila kuonekana 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tuliza matako nakuletea sahizi Wacha kuruka Ruka Kila MahaliSitaki Wikipedia, nataka kutoka kwenye local newspapers, Rais ni mtu mkubwa, hawezi kwenda kuzindua kilometers 11k usiku usiku bila kuonekana 🤣🤣🤣🤣
