Mauritania eyes ultra-deep opportunities
The west African republic of Mauritania, where Woodside Petroleum recently made a deepwater oil find, is already looking ahead to the licensing of its ultra-deepwater acreage. The ultra-deep, in excess of 2,000 m of water, has not yet been divided into blocks. Officials from Mauritania's mines and geology department told Energy Day Online that they contacted companies in the US about organising a future ultra-deep licensing round. All of Mauritania's deepwater acreage, tipped by industry pundits to be highly prospective, is licensed.
