HDPE pipe is a type of flexible plastic pipe used to transfer fluids and gases. It is often employed for replacing aging concrete or steel main pipelines . Constructed from the thermoplastic HDPE (high-density polyethylene ), it has low permeability and robust molecular bonding, making it suitable for high-pressure pipelines .
South Africa in the 1960s was undergoing an economic boom which resulted in a requirement to increase petroleum products by twelve percent to meet demand. [ 3 ] : 77 Prior to this point, rail transport via Maputo (Lourenço Marques) and Durban was the main means of transport and was reaching a point of full capacity.

In South Africa, the main driver for wastewater reuse is drought conditions. [18] For example, in Beaufort West, South Africa's a direct wastewater reclamation plant (WRP) for the production of drinking water was constructed in the end of 2010, as a result of acute water scarcity (production of 2,300 m 3 per day).
The initial capacity of the pipeline will be 6 million cubic meters of oil per year. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] It is possible that the maximum capacity would be higher because of the high demand. [ 3 ] The project foresees the refurbishment and construction of tankage and improved loading capabilities in Matola, and new tankage in Nelspruit, Mpumalanga.
The East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP), also known as the Uganda–Tanzania Crude Oil Pipeline (UTCOP), [4] [3] is a 1,443 km crude oil pipeline in planning since 2013, with a foundation stone nominally under construction since 2017, [5] and is intended to transport crude oil from Uganda's Tilenga and Kingfisher oil fields to the Port of Tanga, Tanzania on the Indian Ocean.
