New Pipeline Could Ease Oil Transport Challenges For Zambia
Zambia is a country dependent on oil imports from the Middle East and Europe via the port in Dar es Salaam in neighbouring Tanzania. Distributing fuel to all corners of the country is a long and expensive task, as most of it is transported by road.

A feasibility study is also being undertaken between Angola and Zambia to transport oil derivatives from the Lobito refinery in Angola, to the Zambian capital Lusaka, with a view to approving this oil infrastructure.
