The West African Gas Pipeline Company Limited (WAPCo) says it will be undertaking a coordinated and planned Emergency ShutDown (ESD) and High Integrity Pressure Protection System (HIPPS) Proof tests at its facilities in Ghana, Togo, Benin and Nigeria, between 28th and 30th January 2024.

This was disclosed by the company in a statement issued on Tuesday, January 23, 204.

Assigning reasons for the planned emergency shut down, WAPCo noted that, it is required by its regulatory authority, the West African Gas Pipeline Authority (WAGPA), to carry out a periodic Emergency Shut Down and HIPPS Proof Test, as part of measures aimed at ensuring safe and reliable operations of the pipeline.

“This Emergency Shut Down and HIPPS Proof Tests is part of WAPCo’s 2024 Scheduled Maintenance activities and planned collaboratively with key stakeholders in the four countries and sanctioned by WAGPA.

“All other relevant stakeholders have been informed in advance and the schedule has been shared with them for all parties to be aligned to ensure minimal disruption,” the company stated.

“WAPCo wishes to apologise to its customers for any inconvenience that may be caused by the planned shutdown, which is a regulatory requirement,” it added.
