State-owned oil company sonancol is likely to tap the international syndicated loan market early next year, despite having amassed hundreds of millions of dollars in debts and deferred payments to oil majors and contractors. The company has been hit by the fall in oil prices and announced at the beginning of December that its gross income has dropped to an estimated US$15.3bn, from more than US$40bn in 2013. Sonangol's debt is estimated at US$9.85bn.
