Empresa Nacional de Hidrocarbonetos EP (ENH), Mozambique’s state-owned oil company, has completed a tender seeking expressions of interest (EOI) from consultants to conduct a study evaluating the feasibility of constructing what would become the country’s first refinery.
Closed as of 10:00 a.m. local time in Mozambique on Mar. 16, the tender invited interested parties to submit their EOIs to participate in an upcoming tender process for the provision of consultancy services for “the elaboration of the feasibility study for refinery deployment in Mozambique,” according to ENH tender documents.
To be based on proposed crude supplies from the Rovuma basin, Mozambique basin, and imported feedstock from the international market, the EOI was to include the following:
• A technical report that analyzes the various alternatives for hydrocarbon processing as well as type and quantity of the products depending on the national and regional market.
• An economic evaluation.
• A market study at both the local and regional levels.
ENH has yet to disclose a timeframe for when and if it will move forward with the project.
