Tanzania Advances $420M Plant

Tanzania is advancing a $420 million gas-to-liquid project to produce diesel, jet fuel, naphtha, hydrogen, and fertilizer locally. Rocky Mountain GTL, a Canadian clean-fuel technology company, completed a feasibility study confirming the plant’s technical and economic viability. The initiative, led in partnership with Rithi Tanzania Group, aims to reduce fuel imports, lower airline costs, and position Tanzania as a regional jet-fuel exporter, challenging Nigeria’s Dangote Refinery dominance in Africa.
