Calvalley Petroleum has received a formal approval from the Ministry of Oil and Minerals of the Republic of Yemen to construct 250 kilometers of 16 inch diameter pipeline along a proposed pipeline right of way between Block 9 to Block 18.
The pipeline will traverse the stretch of desert land between the two aforementioned Blocks and will lie across several other Blocks, serving as a major transportation line for existing and future users of the pipeline and enabling a critical tie-in to the export pipeline in existence on Block 18 which leads to the Ras Isa Terminal on the Red Sea . Calvalley, the operator of the pipeline, has retained the services of a Calgary-based engineering firm to design and assist in the procurement and construction of the pipeline. |
