Oil pipelines that are not being used any more will be torn down to expand highways, according to officials.
In a letter to the Northern Municipal Council, Bapco Energies has said that the oil pipelines network is more than 70 years old and a new line that feeds Bapco with crude oil from Saudi Arabia was launched in November 2018.
In 2019, Bahrain announced that it had found an additional 80 billion barrels of tight oil and deep gas reserves approximately 10 to 20 trillion cubic feet off Bahrain’s southwest coast.
