Sicilianews24.it: Il nuovo slancio del Kenia per il petrolio affronta un’eredità controversa.Nairobi, sede di Gulf Energy, sta reintroducendo un progetto di estrazione petrolifera nel nord-ovest del Kenya, cinque anni dopo l’abbandono del campo da parte di Tullow Oil. Gli abitanti della contea di Turkana sostengono che le attività di esplorazione di Tullow abbiano danneggiato l’ambiente; uno studio del 2022 ha rivelato una pesante contaminazione in otto dei quattordici campioni di acqua sotterranea prelevati vicino ai pozzi nel Bacino di Lokichar. Oltre a ciò, alcuni residenti hanno segnalato problemi di salute. Settantatré abitanti hanno presentato una denuncia contro Tullow e i governi locale e nazionale per richiedere una riabilitazione delle terre e prevenire ulteriori danni. I locali affermano che rimetteranno in discussione Gulf Energy e le autorità di regolamentazione ora che gli sforzi per lo sviluppo del campo petrolifero sono ripresi.Kapese: Centro di Ambizioni PetrolifereKAPESE, Kenya — A prima vista, Kapese, un insediamento polveroso con tradizionali manyattas e bestiame lasciato libero di pascolare, sembra lontano dalle ambizioni petrolifere del Kenya. Oltre a qualche pozzo d’acqua e a una piccola scuola primaria con il logo di Tullow Oil, poco si è materializzato dello sviluppo promesso ai residenti. Dopo che Tullow ha interrotto le operazioni nel 2020, gran parte delle infrastrutture estrattive che caratterizzavano il paesaggio circostante è stata smantellata. Molti locali hanno utilizzato porte e recinzioni dei pozzi come metallo di recupero, mentre pesanti rivestimenti di plastica, un tempo usati per lo stoccaggio di rifiuti di perforazione, ora si trovano sui tetti di molte manyattas vicine.L'articolo Il nuovo slancio del Kenia per il petrolio affronta un’eredità controversa. sembra essere il primo su Sicilianews24.it.Kenya’s renewed push for oil faces a controversial legacy.Nairobi, Gulf Energy’s headquarters, is reintroducing an oil extraction project in northwest Kenya, five years after Tullow Oil abandoned the field. Residents of Turkana County claim that Tullow’s exploration activities damaged the environment; a 2022 study revealed heavy contamination in eight of fourteen groundwater samples taken near the wells in the Lokichar Basin. Furthermore, some residents have reported health problems. Seventy-three residents have filed a complaint against Tullow and the local and national governments, demanding land rehabilitation and preventing further damage. Locals say they will challenge Gulf Energy and regulatory authorities now that efforts to develop the oil field have resumed.Kapese: Petroleum Ambitions CenterKAPESE, Kenya — At first glance, Kapese, a dusty settlement with traditional manyattas and livestock left to graze freely, seems far removed from Kenya’s petroleum ambitions. Aside from a few water wells and a small primary school with the Tullow Oil logo, little of the promised development materialized for residents. After Tullow halted operations in 2020, much of the extractive infrastructure that characterized the surrounding landscape was dismantled. Many locals used well gates and fences as scrap metal, while heavy plastic sheeting, once used for the storage of drilling waste, now sits on the roofs of many nearby manyattas.The article “The New Oil Push in Kenya Faces a Controversial Legacy” appears to be the first on Sicilianews24.it.#Kenya #Nairobi #GulfEnergy’s #TullowOil #TurkanaCounty #theLokicharBasin #GulfEnergy #KAPESE #first #Kapese #theTullowOil #TheNewOilPush https://www.sicilianews24.it/il-nuovo-slancio-del-kenia-per-il-petrolio-affronta-uneredita-controversa-823302.html

Agi: Les Universités Lumsa et Cuea consolident leur partenariat avec une école d’hiver au KenyaAGI - Quatorze étudiants italiens de l’Université privée Lumsa se sont rendus au Kenya pour participer à une école d’hiver spéciale de deux semaines, dans le cadre du partenariat avec l’Université catholique d’Afrique de l’Est (Cuea). Cette initiative, portée par le Centre universitaire Lumsa pour l’Afrique, dirigé par le diplomate Pietro Sebastiani, vise à promouvoir le partage des connaissances et la collaboration avec les pays africains engagés dans de nouveaux modèles de développement fondés sur l’innovation et les technologies numériques. Le programme sur place comprenait des conférences, des colloques et des échanges avec des étudiants et des professeurs kenyans, ainsi que des activités en dehors des salles de cours. Celles-ci ont permis aux participants de découvrir concrètement les réalités sociales, entrepreneuriales, diplomatiques, culturelles et économiques du Kenya, l’un des pays les plus dynamiques du continent africain.Sur place, le professeur Gennaro Iasevoli, vice-recteur chargé de la recherche et de l’internationalisation, et le professeur Plinio Limata, qui encadraient le groupe, ont été accueillis par le professeur Damian M. Maingi, vice-recteur adjoint à la recherche, à l’innovation, au développement et à la promotion. Ensemble, ils ont évoqué de possibles projets de collaboration entre les deux universités. Les étudiants ont visité les quartiers populaires de Nairobi, la nouvelle "ville intelligente" de Konza - important pôle technologique - ainsi que le Centre spatial Luigi Broglio à Malindi, devenu une référence dans le développement de la dernière génération de nanosatellites, les CubeSats.Les étudiants ont aussi rencontré l’ambassadeur d’Italie au Kenya, Vincenzo Del Monaco, le directeur de l’Agence italienne pour la coopération au développement (AICS) Fabio Minniti, et le directeur de l’Agence italienne pour le commerce extérieur (ICE) Giuseppe Manenti, ainsi que l’ambassadeur du Kenya en Italie, Fredrick Mattwanga’a. Les étudiants ont en outre échangé avec des représentants de la communauté italienne au Kenya, des entrepreneurs, ainsi qu’avec la directrice générale d’Eni Kenya, Daniela Morra. L'initiative offre également des bourses d'études à des diplômés africains (du Kenya, d'Éthiopie et de Somalie) pour poursuivre des études de master à Lumsa, renforçant ainsi les échanges mutuels.The Lumsa and Cuea universities are strengthening their partnership with a winter school in Kenya.AGI - Fourteen Italian students from the private Lumsa University traveled to Kenya to participate in a two-week special winter school, within the framework of a partnership with the Catholic University of Eastern Africa (CUEA).
