Environmentally Friendly Construction to Protect Wild Animals

The Western Kenyan oil pipeline crosses Nairobi and Nakuru sanctuaries which are known as a haven for wild animals. As the EPC contractor, China Petroleum Pipeline Bureau, a subsidiary of CNPC, evaluated environmental risks and put forward the construction principle of "giving way to animals". It developed Rules on Protecting Wild Animals during Construction in National Parks of Nairobi and Nakuru to ensure no wild animal presence in the operating area and equipment moves at a slow pace to minimize noise and construction time. After construction, no garbage was left and the landscape was restored. Biological diversification during the entire construction process was protected and no pollution occurred. The project thus received applause from NTV and YouTube.
