Kenya Pipeline Company Limited (KPC) is a State Corporation wholly owned by the Government of Kenya, with 99.9% shareholding by the National Treasury and a fractional less than 0.1% by the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum. Established in 1973 under the Companies Act, Cap 486 of the Laws of Kenya, KPC began its commercial operations in February 1978. The Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum represents KPC at the cabinet level, overseeing the company’s general policy and strategic direction.
KPC’s primary mission is to provide an efficient, reliable, safe, and cost-effective means of transporting petroleum products from Mombasa to the hinterland. To achieve this mission, KPC has constructed an extensive pipeline network, storage, and loading facilities dedicated to the transportation, storage, and distribution of these products. The current infrastructure includes 1,342 kilometres of pipeline, capable of handling approximately 14 billion litres of petroleum products annually.
This infrastructure is pivotal in driving economic growth and development throughout the East African Region. In alignment with this vision, KPC has formulated a Corporate Strategic Plan (CSP), known as KPC Vision 2025. The Plan is built upon four foundational pillars:
“Transforming lives through safe and efficient delivery of quality oil and gas from source to customer.”
“Africa’s Premier Oil & Gas Company.”
Integrity, Transparency,
Accountability, Diligence,
Team Spirit, Loyalty,
Care for the Environment.

The Fiber Optic Cable initiative, launched in April 2022, aims to enhance the country's internet connectivity and create a new revenue stream by leveraging KPC's existing infrastructure. The Morendat Institute of Oil and Gas, on the other hand, offers specialized training in oil and gas management, operations, and maintenance, aligning with KPC's Vision 2025 to become a regional investment hub.
