Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (Biodiversity & Traffic Assessment) For Additional Borrow Pits – Tilenga Project

Home » Projects » Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (Biodiversity & Traffic Assessment) For Additional Borrow Pits – Tilenga Project

Project Overview

Tilenga Project includes the development of petroleum production facilities in CA1 and the Northern part of the LA2 located in Buliisa and Nwoya Districts in Uganda. Before the first oil is realised, there is a need for the development of upstream facilities, considering the nascence of Uganda’s oil industry.

To support the construction works of the enabling infrastructure, murram will be required in implementing the project works. The developer therefore proposed to acquire seven (7) additional borrow pits in Pakwach District, West Nile for the project use.
