Kenya does not have offshore oil.

Mlima-1, the well in the Lamu Oil Basin, off Kenya’s Indian Ocean coast recently touted as the country’s first offshore oil strike, is commercially unviable.

Results of the exploration released by Italian energy group Eni, show that the well proved nonviable and was to be “plugged” and “abandoned,” after it failed to hit commercial oil reserves. "

The result has dealt a blow to Kenya’s hopes of being a commercial offshore oil-producing country. While production was years off even in the event of a big oil discovery, the latest results have killed Kenya’s dreams of exploiting what is believed to be huge offshore oil and gas deposits for now.

All the dreams they had and expectation in Lamu basin is gone.

We have no idea it could be nothing or it could be worth trillions.

Heck even minerals in somalia is unknown. For all we know we could be sitting on the largest copper reserves in the whole world.
If only we had the infrastructure and means to tap into these reserves, if they do exist

They will probably cry for the section they were trying to steal from us. Imagine if that section has oil?
Either way we have tons more oil reserves. All we need to do is stabilise and with that kind of wealth we'll easily be the dominant power in the horn.

More than 80 percent of Kenya’s estimated 2.85 billion barrels oil reservoir remains inaccessible for commercial exploitation due to limitations in extraction technology, British oil firm Tullow said in an update on its exploration programme in Turkana County.


Tough times ahead for Kenya.

The calmadow chain particularly majiyahan is full of minerals, if Somalis had a dowlad we could have a thriving mines sector.
