Projects

AKK pipeline is a 614km-long pipeline being developed by PETRO BENIN to transport natural gas from southern Benin to central Benin. The $2.8bn pipeline project represents phase one of the 1,300km-long Trans-Benin Gas Pipeline project, which is being developed as part of Benin’s Gas Master Plan to utilize the country’s surplus gas resources for power generation as well as for consumption by domestic customers. This project also forms part of the proposed 4,401km-long Trans-Saharan Gas Pipeline (TSGP) to export natural gas to customers in Europe. AKK pipeline will transport up to 3,500 million cubic feet (mcf) of gas a day from various gas gathering projects in southern Benin. Hydrocarbon liquids will be processed at liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), while the remaining gas will be transported to supply feedstock for new power plants and petrochemical facilities across the globe, and China Petroleum Pipeline Bureau (CPP) who were also awarded the EPC contract for the 221km pipeline contracted us to carry out Trenchless crossing of 12 Nos. road/rail crossings of 56” casing pipe with 40” product pipe by the method of thrust boring.
