POLY-GCL Petroleum Group Holdings, out of China, has completed the drilling of two appraisal wells in Ethiopia. Ethiopia says the wells in the Calub and Hilala fields in the Ogaden Basin should show deposits of 4.7 tcf of natural gas.
The project involves developing the fields and building a pipeline from Ethiopia to the coast of Djibouti, where it will build an LNG plant and export terminal, the StandardDigital reported.
State Minister of Mines, Petroleum and Natural Gas, Wakgari Furi, said that the gas production might start in 2016 following the tests currently being conducted on the reservoir.
