What happened
Eco (Atlantic) Oil & Gas Ltd. completed the farm down of a 37.5% working interest in Block 1 CBK offshore South Africa and transferred Operatorship of the Block to Navitas Petroleum LP. This transaction followed the receipt of requisite regulatory approvals from the government of South Africa and the TSX Venture Exchange. The Block 1 CBK area spans 19,929 km² offshore South Africa and has oil and gas potential.
Why it matters
The Block 1 CBK area has been assessed using existing geological data, which includes three legacy exploration wells. These wells confirmed a gas discovery with tested flow rates of 32.4 million standard cubic feet per day, along with additional gas shows and oil indications.
Navitas is progressing farm-down agreements and seeking new exploration licenses in offshore Namibia and various countries.
