In a bid to fortify the nation’s petroleum supply chain infrastructure, the Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) is set to acquire the non-operational Kenya Petroleum Refineries Limited (KPRL) without incurring any costs. The Cabinet recently granted approval to this plan, which involves the transfer of shares of the refinery from the Treasury to KPC. The move comes as the government seeks to bolster the security of the petroleum supply in the country.
