The East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP), also known as the Uganda–Tanzania Crude Oil Pipeline (UTCOP), [5] [4] is a 1,443 km crude oil pipeline in planning since 2013, with a foundation stone nominally under construction since 2017, [6] and is intended to transport crude oil from Uganda's Tilenga and Kingfisher oil fields to the Port of Tanga, Tanzania on the Indian Ocean.
Fishing boat off Dar es Salaam - fishing will be affected by changes to ecosystems due to climate change. Between 1981 and 2016 there are marked areas of drying in parts of northeast and much of southern Tanzania. In contrast, moderate wetting trends occurred in central Tanzania and stronger wetting trends in the northwest of the country. [5]
A 2019 paper published in PLOS One estimated that under Representative Concentration Pathway 4.5, a "moderate" scenario of climate change where global warming reaches ~2.5–3 °C (4.5–5.4 °F) by 2100, the climate of Dar es Salaam in the year 2050 would most closely resemble the current climate of Barquisimeto in Venezuela. The annual ...
The World Bank Group (WBG) provides grants, credits and policy analysis to support economic development in Tanzania with a focus on infrastructure and private sector growth. [1] As of 2018, WBG supports 25 active projects with funding of more than $3.95 billion. [2] The WBG provides analytical and technical assistance in coordination with these ...
A branch of ancient sea routes led down the East African coast called "Azania" by the Greeks and Romans in the 1st century CE as described in the Periplus of the Erythraean Sea (and, very probably, Chinese: 澤散 in the 3rd century by the Chinese), [2] at least as far as the port known to the Romans as Rhapta, which was probably located in the delta of the Rufiji River in modern Tanzania.
The dam is being built across the Rufiji River, at Stiegler's Gorge, in the Selous Game Reserve, Pwani Region, approximately 220 kilometres (137 mi), by road, southwest of Dar es Salaam. [23] This power station is located in Selous Game Reserve, one of the world's largest World Heritage Sites, measuring 45,000 square kilometres (17,000 sq mi ...
The Tazama Crude Oil Pipeline was constructed to transport crude oil from the port of Dar-es-Salaam into landlocked Zambia, at an affordable, sustainable economic cost. When installed in 1968, the pipeline had a carrying capacity of 1,100,000 tonnes (1,212,542 tons) annually. [2] By 2002, carrying capacity had deteriorated to 600,000 tonnes ...
