Eco (Atlantic) Oil & Gas Ltd CEO Gil Holtzman joins Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion with an update on the company’s projects offshore Guyana, Namibia and South Africa.
Holtzman noted that Eco has added to its sizeable stake in the Orinduik Block, offshore Guyana, after buying out exploration partner Tullow Oil. It comes after previous wells on the block failed to deliver a discovery but significantly, a substantial portion of the block’s prospectivity remains untested.
In particular, the type of exploration play that yielded Exxon’s massive nearby discoveries has yet to be drilled in this neighbouring acreage, as under Tullow’s operatorship the partner previously went after alternative targets. Eco now intends to re-partner and go after these already de-risked prospects.
Holtzman also provided details of the latest developments on the company’s acreage positions in South Africa’s Orange Basin and the Walvis Basin off Namibia.
Eco is actively involved in the global energy transition and aims to deliver material value for its stakeholders by exploring for hydrocarbons in some of the most prolific petroleum basins around the world.
