ZETL To Manage Gas Waste
ZEAL Environmental Technologies Limited (ZETL),
the company responsible for managing oil waste at
the Jubilee Field, has stated its preparedness to
manage waste that would be generated at the gas
processing plant after the completion of the
project.

According to Kwaku Ennin, the Chief Executive
Officer (CEO) of ZETL, his outfit had signed an
agreement with Lonrho, the London based company
which would construct and manage a logistics port
along the coast of the western region, to set up a
waste processing plant at the port.

He said 'we have signed Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) with Lonrho to set up a
facility right at the terminal to take advantage
of its proximity to the gas facility that will be
set up there. We will manage the waste that will
be generated both from the gas plant and the port
terminal.'

Mr. Ennin disclosed this when selected journalists
undergoing a training programme on oil and gas
visited his plant at Takoradi in the Western
region.

He also noted that 'our newly installed oily waste
water separating plant here in Takoradi would also
enable us to process gas condensate to be
generated by West Africa Gas Pipeline.'

He indicated that 'ZETL is in the process of
installing an industrial incinerator, the first of
its kind in the country purposely to serve the oil
field activities as well as the mining sector.

'The incinerator will help both oil and mining
companies to adopt best industrial practices in
managing waste.'
