The project will furthermore help Tanzania fulfill some of the goals that are stipulated in the Tanzania Development Vision 2025. TPDC is a state-owned firm.
These include the availability of a reliable electric power supply, expansion and increase of the industrial spectrum, cleaner environment, employment creation, extended natural gas usage, availability of clean water and the use of petrochemicals in Tanzania’s industries. Acting TPDC Managing Director James Andilile said the construction work of the pipeline will be completed by the end of next month. This is contrary to earlier predictions by the Ministry of Energy and Minerals that the $1.2 billion project was to be completed by the end of 2014. Latest estimates show the pipeline will be ready by the end of February 2015.
