(Business in Cameroon) - British oil and gas operator Bowleven announced, on March 4, 2020, the arrival of Technip FMC on the Etinde field (on which it is 25% co-owner of the exploration license alongside Lukoil and New-Age that own 37.5% each) in offshore Cameroon.

This UK-based energy industry operator will work alongside the operations team as a prime contractor in the development of the Etinde project, which could lead to the production and marketing of natural gas.

Let’s note that Victoria Oil & Gas (VOG), the parent company of Gaz du Cameroun (GDC), is also interested in the project.

On February 5, 2020, VOG signed a "non-binding letter of intent" with the owners of the Etinde project, which covers an area of 2,316 km² in the southwest region of Cameroon. In the framework of that letter of intent, it will obtain natural gas supplies from the Etinde field.
