    "content": "As we did that, we looked at the inclusion of a pipeline and some people asked how much oil we have. The same companies have accepted to venture into investing in the 800 kilometre pipeline, all the way from Turkana to Lamu. From the few meetings we had with Tullow Oil Company that is exploring for oil in Turkana, we are now at class ‘C’ of ‘A’ and ‘B’. We can produce a lot of oil to export. The good thing Kenyans should know is that our oil is of high quality because it has very low sulphur content. As much as it is waxy, it is going to be a product in the market that will be on demand. It will fetch a lot of money because of its low sulphur content. The oil is there. As we speak, over 3,000 barrels of oil have been stored in tanks in Turkana; it has never been moved. It is important for us to take that oil to the market so that it can be tested and then we can start earning from it. We are happy that there is some talk going on regarding the pipeline. We appreciate and ask the CS to fast-track the talks and start the pipeline construction."
