Saber to consult communities on gas project

The proposed 120-kilometre pipeline will enable Saber to supply CIC Energy's needs when construction of Mmamabula Phase 1 commences. The company is upbeat about prospects of clear rare coal bed methane (CBM) that will produce the first unconventional gas project in SADC and the rest of the African continent.

In an advertisement running in the press this week, Saber Energy announced it had applied for the authorisation of the pipeline in terms of Sections 6 and 7 of the Environmental Impact Assessment Act of 2005.
