In the course of the farmout process which the Company has been conducting for PEL 0094, it has become evident that potentially interested parties are awaiting the outcome of the drilling programme in Namibia's Orange Basin, to be undertaken by the energy majors, Total (Venus-1) and Shell (Graff-1). Both wells were reportedly scheduled to spud in Q4 2021, although no firm dates are currently known.
Peter Hill, Global Petroleum's CEO, commented:
" Given the feedback which we have had from the energy industry with regard to the upcoming drilling by Total and Shell, we feel that it would be advantageous for the Company to be positioned in the market with the assistance of an experienced advisor over the upcoming period, and we are pleased to have PVE Consultants on board for that purpose."
