Solo Oil said the newly constructed gas export pipeline from the Songo Songo processing plant to the KN-1 gas well has been completed.
The KN-1 well, when connected to the export pipeline, is expected to produce at least 20 million cubic feet per day.
The company announced earlier this month that it has signed an asset purchase agreement with Aminex for the first 6.5% interest in the Kiliwani North Development licence.
It has the option to purchase an additional 6.5% interest during a period of 30 days after the gas sales agreement has been approved by the Tanzanian authorities.
Neil Ritson, Solo’s chairman, said: “As we reach the point of gas commercialisation we are naturally tracking the process very closely and shortly expect to see final hook-up and pressure testing get underway.
“With the imminent hook-up we also remain extremely confident that the GSA will be signed in time to commence exports of gas from the field as soon as the facilities are complete.”
