Background
The Government of the Republic of Kenya, the Government of
the Republic of Uganda and the Government of the Republic of Rwanda (The
Governments), through the Joint Coordinating Commission
(JCC), are desirous of developing a refined petroleum products pipeline from Eldoret
in Kenya to Kampala in Uganda and extend it to Kigali in Rwanda. This pipeline
is one of the Northern Corridor Integration Projects that aims to accelerate
regional development.
The new pipeline will be an extension to the existing
Western Kenya pipeline system at Eldoret which is owned and operated by the
Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC). The Eldoret-Kampala-Kigali Pipeline will serve,
among others, the markets of Uganda, Rwanda and the neighbouring States of
Tanzania, Burundi, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

(EPC), test and commission the proposed Eldoret - Kampala- Kigali refined
petroleum products pipeline. Pre-qualified firms will receive the Request for Proposal
(RFP) for the project.
