Ernest Owusu Bempah <\/strong><\/p>\n

THE LAYING of
\npipelines from the Atuabo Gas Processing Plant to the relocated Karpowership at
\nthe Sekondi Naval Base in the Western Region is about 98 per cent complete.<\/p>\n

This will
\npave the way for the Ghana Gas Company Limited to push its first gas from the
\nAtuabo Gas Processing Plant to the Karpowership by October 31, this year.<\/p>\n

The 470
\nMegawatts Powership, which was operating on heavy fuel oil, was sailed from its
\nprevious point in Tema to Sekondi to utilize natural gas from Atuabo.<\/p>\n

The Communications
\nDirector at Ghana Gas, Ernest Owusu Bempah, told the media in Takoradi.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are
\nexpected to deliver almost about 60 to 90 million cubic feet of gas daily and
\nif everything goes on well, this can produce about 450 to 470 megawatts of
\nelectricity for the people of Ghana,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He said the
\npipelines to power the Karpowership were currently undergoing
\ntests.\u00a0\u201cCurrently, the engineers are doing the testing and commissioning
\nof the gas pipeline.\u00a0They pushed nitrogen gas in the pipelines to
\nneutralize the pressure in the lines to see whether the pipelines are cleaned
\ninternally. Everything is okay now and there are no problems with the
\npipelines,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

He said it
\nwas necessary that all technical engineering work was done to ensure that
\neverything was on point before pushing the first gas from the gas processing
\nplant at Atuabo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The
\nrelocation of the Karpowership was in line with the government\u2019s strategic policy
\nfor the ship to utilize natural gas from the Western Enclave to save money for
\nthe country.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After being shut down for over three weeks due to the relocation, the company began power production in September, this year.<\/p>\n
