ProposalDescription: 

At Mossel Bay, PetroSA needs to institute repairs and modifications to the existing Single Point Mooring System (SPM) infrastructure. Portions of the pipelines have become corroded and PetroSA proposes to install two new ~1.4 km long bypass steel pipelines (12” and 14”), connected to the existing SPM infrastructure, to bypass the corroded section.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The new bypass pipelines will be installed on the seabed, parallel to and 15 m from the existing SPM pipeline operating bundle. The new dual pipelines will terminate in a new Pipeline End Manifold (PLEM) seabed structure to be tied into the existing SPM buoy (to be repositioned to align with the new PLEM) and the existing operating bundle (the project). The construction of the pipelines, in the early 1990s by Mossgas, was prior to the National Heritage Resources Act (NHRA) (No. 25 of 1999) and there is the potential for destroying or damaging Maritime and Underwater Cultural Heritage (MUCH) sites. As part of the Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA), an Underwater Heritage Impact Assessment (UHIA) needed to be undertaken to identify sensitive cultural heritage sites in the affected environment. This report has been prepared in terms of Section 38 of the NHRA and forms part of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA).
