It has been widely reported that Tullow Oil, a British oil exploration company and a key player in the region since commercially viable oil reserves were discovered in 2012, has written off Sh18.8 billion from its Kenyan assets, citing significant hurdles in the long-delayed Turkana oil project.
The announcement highlights the mounting challenges facing Kenya’s ambition to become an oil-exporting nation.
