The SA Gas Master Plan 2024 was released in Draft a few months ago, and I have only just found time to read it. Of importance:
The document highlights the potential of the key demand nodes in the Karoo Basin (where Kinetiko's project also exists) for natural gas exploration and development. It identifies this region as a significant source of onshore gas that can contribute substantially to South Africa's energy needs.
The plan includes strategies for improving infrastructure in the Karoo Basin to facilitate efficient gas extraction and transportation. This includes developing pipelines and other necessary facilities to support the growing gas industry in the region. The Plan specifically identifies the Lilly pipeline, which is South Africa's largest overland gas pipeline, which also traverses Kinetiko's project area.
