The samples obtained in the exploratory survey known as Sandia confirmed the existence of gas, although without the necessary volume nor quality to consider future extraction.
The Rowan Renaissance drillship will return to Angola to continue with Repsol’s exploration program in that country.
Around 750 professionals from more than 50 companies, some based in the Canary Islands, have worked on the research project, applying the maximum safety and environmental protection standards.
