Cote d’Ivoire is looking to boost its oil and gas production over the next four years. According to the state-run company Petroci, the West African country will double its output by 2020.

“Today we have around 60 blocks. We’ve awarded about 20,” Petroci’s Managing Director Ibrahima Diaby told Reuters on the sidelines of an energy conference in the capital Yamoussoukro. “With current exploration our ambition is to reach 200,000 barrels of oil equivalent in 2020,” he said.
