Empowering and uplifting the lives of those impacted by the pipeline – that’s what drives us. 💪 Together, we are committed to making a positive change and improving conditions for our fellow Tanzanians. 🌱

At #EACOP we believe that having a support system in place can make all the difference! Transitional support is more than just a helping hand; it’s a lifeline for those affected by change. 🤝

In line with the IFC Performance Standard 6, EACOP is also committed to achieve a Net Gain of biodiversity values in critical habitats and No Net Loss in natural habitats.

EACOP allows Uganda to unlock value from its own natural resources, and represents a significant inward investment of some $4 billion across both Uganda and Tanzania, thus value creation is also extended to Tanzania.  The new corridor linking the two countries will bring benefits including the development of new infrastructure, logistics, technology transfer as well as improving the livelihoods of communities along the route.

EACOP fully recognises its responsibilities both to environmental protection and the people, land and communities that will be impacted by the project, especially during the construction phase.  For this reason EACOP pledges to uphold not just the legal requirements in both Uganda and Tanzania, but also to fully comply with the IFC Performance Standards that set out international best practice in these areas

Meet Kimbowa John and his wife Nasande Olivia. Kimbowa’s original house sat in the path of EACOP, and as a result, he was offered a new replacement home as compensation. Overflowing with gratitude, Kimbowa expresses his appreciation towards EACOP for providing him with a superior residence compared to his previous one.

As noted in the video below, you DEFINITELY want these Expo Chisel Tip Markers, versus these Expo Fine Tip Dry Erase Markers. In the name of science, we bought and tried out a variety of different brands and sizes, and Expo brand worked the best by far. The chisel tip are thicker and create pictures that are less likely to fall apart as they float around in the water.

This video offers a unique perspective on how we prepare the land acquired by EACOP before commencing work, with a special focus on archaeology

The establishment of the Liaison Office on plot 6, Circular Road, Masaka City, today 20th April 2023, is an important part of the Projects overall commitment to stakeholder engagement, consultation of the affected communities, and respect for their rights to information.

The pipeline route has been finalised based on rigorous application of the ‘avoid, minimise, restore and offset’ mitigation hierarchy, over several years, to integrate the multiple technical, societal and environmental constraints and weave an optimised right of way (30m width corridor) with the least overall impact, seeking to avoid densely populated and environmentally sensitive areas.

Per best practice, the compensation is calculated with a disturbance allowance and an uplift to reflect the time elapsed since the original surveys.

A solvent is a liquid (or other material) that can dissolve another solution. For example, if you use nail polish remover (acetone) to take the nail polish off of your fingernails, you are using a solvent! The acetone is the solvent for the nail polish!

A polymer is a long chain of molecules that is made up of smaller repeating units. You can have natural polymers (that occur on their own in nature) such as wool, protein, fingernails and DNA. There are also synthetic polymers, which humans make, such as plastic, silicone or nylon.

EACOP Ltd. has successfully concluded the construction of resettlement houses for Project Affected Persons in Uganda. In line with the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) implementation, a total of 177 replacement houses have been constructed for the Project Affected Persons (PAPs) across various districts including Kikuube, Kakumiro, Kyankwanzi, Sembabule, Rakai, Kyotera, and Lwengo. This significant milestone signifies the completion of the construction and delivery of all 177 houses for the benefit of the PAPs.

The East African Crude Oil Pipeline Project (EACOP) is a pipeline that will transport oil produced from Uganda’s Lake Albert oilfields to the port of Tanga in Tanzania where the oil will then be sold onwards to world markets.  The pipeline is buried and once topsoil and vegetation have been re-instated people and animals will be able to cross freely anywhere along its length.

In addition, dry erase markers contain a resin that helps them not stick to non-porous surfaces. The resin makes the ink “slippery” and is usually an oily silicone polymer. If you have ever accidentally gotten dry erase marker on clothing, you will know that it stains and is hard to get off (if not impossible!) That is because fabric has pores, and the oily silicone polymer only keeps the ink from sticking to NON-POROUS surfaces!

The absolute BEST way to learn how to make your drawings float is to watch my daughter’s video below. It would mean the absolute world to her if you liked her video here, and follow her Inspired Sparks YouTube channel here!

We are doing an entire science experiment virtual camp, using ingredients and stuff that you most likely already have around your house. Make sure that you join our Facebook Group and follow us on Pinterest, so you that you won’t miss the additional activities! Here are the other daily activities, in case you missed any so far:

Kids have the most incredible imaginations. Every time my kids draw a picture, you can see that it “comes to life” in their minds. Well, how about if we can use science to actually make your drawings float? Your kids are going to LOVE the dry erase water trick! You definitely want to read the details below though, so that you use the right kind of dry erase markers and the correct plate or glass surface. I don’t want anyone ruining their grandmother’s delicate china! Plus, we will discuss the science behind why your drawings are able to float.

The pipeline route does not go under Lake Victoria or cross any IUCN categorised sites.  Some 8% of the pipeline length traverses designated areas covering an area of 3.5 km2; the pipeline will be buried and the surface vegetation restored so as to be almost invisible in operation.  Furthermore the majority of these are along the boundaries of such areas that have already been largely modified by farming and other human activity.

To minimise greenhouse gas emissions from the operation of the pipeline, EACOP is planning to implement several carbon footprint reduction (CFR) measures including: full electrification of pumping stations in Uganda, where grid electricity is mainly generated from hydroelectric plants; and a hybrid power generation solution in Tanzania combining thermal power generation, solar energy from five solar farms to be installed along the pipeline, battery storage and interconnection to the Tanzanian electricity grid.

Come along on a journey as we applaud the incredible resilience of our exceptional families, who have welcomed change, adapted with grace, and are eagerly embracing the promise of a brighter tomorrow. Cheers to new beginnings and brighter horizons ahead! ✨👏

In order to understand the reason why this science experiment works, you have to first understand how dry-erase markers work. If you draw on a white board at school with a permanent marker, it will not wipe off (do NOT try this!) The reason that dry-erase markers wipe off of white boards is because they contain a solvent that can dissolve the colored pigments used in the marker. The solvent is most often a type of alcohol.

Some 13,161 Project Affected Persons (PAPs) along the pipeline route will receive compensation in cash and in-kind directly from EACOP, in line with both National Legislation and the IFC Performance Standards.  The vast majority of these PAPs (96%) have some portion of their land impacted and will receive compensation for the full replacement cost of their land, structures, crops and trees.  Some 4% of the PAPs also require their primary dwelling to be relocated, and they are offered replacement houses of a higher standard than their existing dwelling.  In addition to cash compensation, the majority of PAPs will also be entitled to in-kind compensation including transitional food support, financial literacy training and access to livelihood restoration programs.

We had absolutely no issue removing the Expo Chisel Tip Markers from our Pyrex baking dish. However, if you end up with any residue that isn’t coming off with water, try rubbing it with a paper towel dipped in rubbing alcohol. Try this on a small spot on the bottom of your dish first, just to be sure that the rubbing alcohol won’t hurt your dish. As I keep saying though, please do not do this experiment on a dish or container that would make you upset to throw out. As my grandma said, it is better to be safe than sorry!

In both countries, EACOP has established a field-based team of Community Relations Coordinators and Community Liaison Officers together with an accessible grievance mechanism.  This allows to maintain a constant dialogue between EACOP and the PAPs together with the surrounding communities.  PAPs will leave their affected land only after they have been paid their compensation and received their notice to vacate.  This compensation process was started in 2021 and full land access is planned to be achieved in 2023.

We just learned about two scientific terms (polymers and solvents) that I want to explain a bit further, in case you are unsure what those words mean.

EACOP runs 1,443km from Kabaale, Hoima district in Uganda to the Chongoleani Peninsula near Tanga Port in Tanzania.  80% of the pipeline is in Tanzania. It is a buried thermally insulated 24″ pipeline along with six pumping stations (two in Uganda and four in Tanzania) ending at Tanga with a Terminal and Jetty.  Here crude oil will be loaded onto tankers.

Land acquisition is a two-phase process.  Prior to 2021 the focus was on surveying and establishing valuations.  During this first phase, land-users were both able to and encouraged to continue to use their land.  The second implementation phase of land acquisition concerns the payment of compensation and establishment of in-kind support programmes.
