Africa Oil ( (TSE:AOI) ) has issued an update.
Africa Oil Corp. announced an operational update regarding the Marula-1X drilling operation on Block 2913B offshore Namibia. The well, drilled to a depth of 6,460 meters, did not encounter hydrocarbons in its primary target, prompting a comprehensive analysis of the results. This development impacts Africa Oil’s exploration strategy, as the company holds an effective interest of approximately 3.8% in the blocks, which include the Venus light oil discovery. The farm down agreement with TotalEnergies ensures that Impact Oil & Gas, in which Africa Oil has a stake, is fully carried for exploration and development costs, presenting opportunities to explore different geological plays without upfront costs.
