Mozambique, which has vast offshore gas resources, has awarded gas development projects to Norway's Yara International, Shell Mozambique and GL Energy Africa by the end of last month.
FID of the deepwater gas field Area 1 & Area 4 in Mozambique expected to finalize this year, while Shell, together with its partner Ophir, took advantage of reduced exploration costs to drill the two wells in Tanzania’s block 1 and 4. The next critical spotlight is how to commercialize the huge potential reserves.
The main regulator and explorers will discuss the commercialization of these reserves on 3rd Deepwater East & Southern Africa Congress 2017. The discussion will enclose those key issues you may concern.
