Shell to Drill Offshore Namibia

摘要

Royal Dutch Shell is to drill offshore Namibia, a growing area of interest for oil and gas explorers, the southern African country's mines and energy minister said on Monday. Shell has taken over exploration in Blocks 2913A and 2914B in the Orange Basin from Signet Petroleum, with the Anglo-Dutch group acquiring a 90% stake in the two blocks and Namibian national oil company Namcor keeping its 10% carried interest.
