内罗毕讯 - 总统William Ruto表示，计划在Lamu建设并与尼日利亚亿万富翁Aliko Dangote合作开发的炼油厂将创造至少60,000个工作岗位，同时将肯尼亚定位为区域能源和工业枢纽。\n\n国家元首在出席NYOTA第二期资金发放仪式时，将该拟建炼油厂与政府更广泛的工业化议程联系起来，并指出大规模基础设施项目将在创造就业和吸引长期投资方面发挥关键作用。\n\n我们在Lamu建造的这座炼油厂是我与投资者Aliko Dangote达成一致的，它将为我们的年轻人创造就业机会，他说。\n\n这座计划中的炼油厂是肯尼亚有史以来提议的最大规模私人投资项目之一。\n\n据彭博社报道，非洲首富Aliko Dangote已选择Lamu县作为该炼油厂的首选地址，估计耗资约2.2万亿先令。\n\n建成后，该设施预计每天可处理高达700,000桶原油，使其成为东非最大的炼油厂，也是仅次于Dangote位于尼日利亚Lagos的旗舰炼油厂的非洲第二大炼油厂。\n\n目前，尽管该地区石油发现不断增加，但东非国家仍然严重依赖进口精炼燃料。这项投资将显著扩大肯尼亚在区域石油价值链中的作用。

原文原文 / Original Text

Nairobi — President William Ruto has said that the planned oil refinery in Lamu, being developed in partnership with Nigerian billionaire Aliko Dangote, will create at least 60,000 jobs while positioning Kenya as a regional energy and industrial hub.

The head of state, who spoke during the NYOTA Tranche II disbursement, linked the proposed refinery to the government's broader industrialization agenda, arguing that large-scale infrastructure projects will play a critical role in creating jobs and attracting long-term investment.

"That refinery in Lamu that I have agreed with the Investor Aliko Dangote will create jobs for our young people," he said.

The planned refinery represents one of the largest private investment projects ever proposed in Kenya.

According to Bloomberg, Africa's richest man, Aliko Dangote, has selected Lamu County as the preferred site for the refinery, which is estimated to cost about Sh2.2 trillion.

Once completed, the facility is expected to process up to 700,000 barrels of crude oil per day, making it the largest refinery in East Africa and the second largest in Africa after Dangote's flagship refinery in Lagos, Nigeria.

The investment would significantly expand Kenya's role in the regional petroleum value chain at a time when East African countries continue to rely heavily on imported refined fuel despite increasing oil discoveries across the region.
