Ecuador has issued an environmental permit to state - owned oil company Petroamazonas that will allow it to begin developing three oil fields in the South American country's Amazon rainforest. The license signed by Environment Minister Lorena Tapia on Thursday was the last formal government approval needed to start work at the Ishpingo - Tambococha - Tiputini (ITT) fields.
