Description
Description | The East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) is a planned cross-border crude oil pipeline stretching about 1,443 kilometres from Uganda's oil-producing region to Tanzania's coastal export facilities. The project is backed by French energy firm TotalEnergies and is expected to serve as Uganda's main route for shipping crude oil to international markets. The project is currently facing legal challenges from Ugandan farmers who have filed a petition in the UK High Court to halt the pipeline's operation unless it complies with Uganda's environmental and climate laws. |
