Orca Energy Group - Dar Es Salaam

Orca Energy Group Inc. is the operator of the 879 Bcf Songo Songo natural gas field, which is located 15 km off the coast and 200 km south of Dar es Salaam, covering a total area of 41,630 acres (170 km2). The Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) between Orca and the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TDPC) states that 195 Bcf of the gas will be allocated to Songas Limited, with Orca Exploration responsible for producing, marketing, and selling the remaining 684 Bcf. To facilitate this, a gas processing facility has been installed on Songo Songo Island by Songas Limited, with Orca operating the plant on a no loss, no gain basis. The facility supplies natural gas to a 25 km 12” marine pipeline and a 207 km 16” land pipeline that runs north to Dar es Salaam. The Songo Songo gas field is the first of its kind to be developed in Tanzania.
