Tuesday, November 12, 2013

New exploration blocks in Sudan will be put up for auction during December, according to Sudan’s Oil Minister Awad Al Jaz. The country plans to auction off five oil blocks before the end of the year Al Jaz told reporters in Abu Dhabi.

The blocks will include three offshore and two onshore, he said.

In 2012 the government awarded nine exploration blocks to consortiums and Maurel & Prom signed an MoU with the government for an offshore block last year.
