Penspen, a leading global provider of engineering and management services to the energy industry, has been awarded a contract from Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation Company Limited (BOST) to conduct a Front End Engineering Design (FEED) study for further development of the Ghana Natural Gas Interconnected Transmission System.

BOST, the holder of Ghana鶹ýӳs Natural Gas Transmission Utility license, has a mandate to operate, maintain and further develop the nation鶹ýӳs first country-wide gas transmission network, as part of Ghana鶹ýӳs national agenda to exploit gas as an efficient and cost-effective means of augmenting power supply. The first phase of this build-out will be the addition of approximately 750 km of pipeline from Aboadze to Tema, and from Prestea to Buipe, via Kumasi.

Penspen will be involved in all aspects of the engineering and project management. The engineering work will take place over a 12 month period and will be carried out by Penspen鶹ýӳs team in London and Accra.

Peter O鶹ýӳSullivan, CEO of Penspen said:

鶹ýӳWe are pleased to have been selected by BOST to provide our engineering expertise for this significant project, which will increase availability and improve accessibility to energy across Ghana.

This major investment in the country鶹ýӳs energy infrastructure will help boost its economic growth over the next decade. Our team鶹ýӳs experience in conducting many similar projects worldwide, accompanied by our strong commitment to developing Ghanaian local expertise and capabilities as part of this contract, will ensure that Ghana鶹ýӳs gas network derives the maximum value from this investment.鶹ýӳ

Kwame Awuah-Darko, Managing Director of BOST, said:

鶹ýӳOur team has been working hard to develop BOST into a credible Natural Gas Transmission Utility for the nation. This major development, which is an integral part of our long term strategic plan, is an important step forward not just for BOST, but for the country, and will serve as a catalyst to help boost economic growth. We selected Penspen 鶹ýӳ following an extensive, international open tender 鶹ýӳ on the basis of its team鶹ýӳs deep experience and high calibre, and we look forward to working together.鶹ýӳ
