WAPCo to Resume Flows in November

Tuesday, July 9, 2013

WAPCo, the West African Gas Pipeline Co., plans to see gas flows from Nigeria to other West African countries by the end of November.

The pipeline suffered a breach last August while sending supplies to Ghana’s power plant and another in October when it experienced a fatal accident during the re-commissioning of the Takoradi Regulating and Metering Station in Ghana.

Speaking to journalists at an energy event in Accra, chief executive Kweku Awotwi of the Volta River Authority (VRA), said the damage on the pipeline had been fixed and the company was pumping out the sea water.
