The Contract Haulage Office at the Ndola Oil Storage Company

Thats the office where I got fired ;-)


Tanzania Zambia Mafuta (TAZAMA) Pipelines Limited is a company jointly owned by both the Zambian and Tanzanian governments. Founded in 1966 its purpose was, and still is, to transport finished petroleum products from Dar-Es-Salaam to Ndola by way of an oil pipeline.
The construction of the pipeline took almost two years, with its official opening being in 1968, when the first Zambian President, Dr.Kenneth Kaunda, and his counterpart, Mwalimu
Julius Nyerere, jointly opened a valve at Tank Farm in Tanzania and a valve at the Ndola Oil Storage Company (NOSCO) in Ndola, Zambia.

TAZAMA has since been successfully pumping finished products through the 1,710km (1,065m) pipeline from the Indian Ocean port of Dar-Es-Salaam in Tanzania to the Copperbelt town of Ndola in Zambia.
