Pipeline laying underway at Java for Gas-to-Shore project

Pipelines being laid out to be later connected at Java

Despite several unresolved issues relating to the proposed Gas-to-Shore project, the laying of pipelines has begun on the West Bank of Demerara.

The Sunday Stabroek yesterday visited the village of Java where the residents have a front row  view of the ongoing construction.

However, there still remains questions relating to the total cost of the project, the owners of the separate components, Guyana’s share of the total cost, the availability of a feasibility study showing capital and operation costs, and the proposed rates for resale of the electricity.
