BP and Kosmos Energy are teaming up again in exploration, this time in Sao Tome and Principe’s exclusive economic zone (EEZ). The two firms won exploration rights to two offshore oil blocks in the EEZ according to the island nation’s national oil agency.
BP and Kosmos won access to Blocks 10 and 13 in a restricted tender, the agency’s director Orlando Pontes said in a statement. They beat a second consortium of Portugal’s Galp Energia and Total, he said.
The EEZ is 129,000 sq km and is divided into 19 blocks.
The two firms are partnered together in Mauritania and Senegal.
