Govt. Opens Up 9 More License Areas

摘要

The Energy Ministry is demarcating up to nine new blocks of onshore and offshore territory to offer for oil and gas exploration, said Permanent Secretary for Energy Patrick Nyoike. Previously, companies could secure rights on a first-come, first-serve basis. However, the country's success in oil discoveries allows it to demand more from companies that seek to drill in the country, added energy ministry officials.
