Kenya is looking to dislodge Tanzania as Rwanda’s main fuel transit route following a new agreement signed on Monday.
The Kenya and Rwanda agreement will enable the landlocked country to use Kenya Pipeline Company’s (KPC) network of pipelines and storage tanks for the importation of fuel to Rwanda.
The agreement sets Kenya on a path to reclaim a lost market for its petroleum logistics sector, reversing a shift made more than a decade ago when Rwanda rerouted its imports through Tanzania.
