The Petroleum Development Plan (PDP) for the Petroleum sub-sector in Kenya involves preparation of medium and long-term plans. The long-term petroleum plan spans for a period of 20 years while the medium term covers a period of 5 years. The PDP addresses medium to long term petroleum and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) supply issues and concerns. The plan provides forecasts for medium and long term demand, identifies appropriate strategies of meeting the forecasted requirements at least cost and addresses both infrastructure and capacity constraints and related concerns that could hamper the smooth delivery of the services across the petroleum supply chain. Preparation of the PDP involves the following activities:

    • Assessment of current macroeconomic environment and their impact on petroleum sub sector

    • Demand foresting

    • Scenario analysis using available data from all 47 counties

    • Infrastructure plans to meet the demand

    • Estimates of Investment cost to meet infrastructure requirements

    • Special focus on LPG as a modern fuel to households

    • Monitoring and evaluation plans
