Cepsa has acquired a 30% stake in a block offshore Liberia through a farm-out agreement. This is the company’s first asset in West Africa and fits into its planned expansion into emerging markets.
The block, LB-10, is operated by Anadarko Petroleum Corp. The company did not say how much it intends to spend on acquiring the stake.
Under the farm-out agreement Cepsa will participate in the drilling of two exploratory wells before August 2016.
