CNOOC International holds assets in both shale gas and conventional oil in Colombia and was one of the first companies to explore for shale gas in the country.
Shale Gas
In 2012, three gas wells were drilled on two of four blocks that CNOOC International holds close to Bogota. The four blocks occupy a total area of approximately 600,000 hectares, or 1.5 million acres.
Conventional Oil
Over the last 20 years, CNOOC International has drilled seven conventional oil exploratory wells in Colombia. One of these wells resulted in an oil field that is operated by our partner Petrobras. CNOOC International has a 50% working interest.CNOOC is committed to working with Senegal and Guinea-Bissau to unlock its resources in a safe and sustainable way.
