据WENews.com网站11月4日休斯顿,津巴布韦总统E·姆南加古瓦(E·Mnangagwa)周四表示,澳大利亚Invictus能源公司日前在津巴布韦北部穆扎拉巴尼地区发现了石油和天然气藏。
姆南加古瓦表示,Invictus 能源公司已同意,一旦这个项目达到商业化生产,该公司将与津巴布韦签署产量分成协议。
姆南加古瓦告诉记者:“津巴布韦政府将与Invictus能源公司紧密合作来确保Invictus能源公司在2020年年中前完成其钻取一口勘探井计划。”
津巴布韦矿业部长温斯顿·奇坦多表示,钻取这口勘探井将耗资2000万美元。
上世纪90年代初,美国美孚石油公司是第一家在穆扎拉巴尼地区进行油气研究的公司,但该公司后来放弃了这项工作。Invictus能源公司将使用首先由美孚石油公司获得的数据。
根据其网站上的信息,在澳大利亚上市的Invictus能源公司是一家独立的油气勘探公司,其唯一海外资产在津巴布韦。
