Shell is within days of starting a three-well exploration and appraisal drilling campaign offshore Namibia centred on its large Graff oil and gas discovery.
The supermajor’s exploration well on the Graff prospect in the Orange basin this year found what is thought to be hundreds of millions of barrels of oil.
Shell immediately drilled a follow up well, called La Rona, which — unlike with Graff — did not reveal the results.
Northern Ocean’s semi-submersible Deepsea Bollsta is set to arrive in Walvis Bay tomorrow, according to Kjetil Gjersdal, chief executive of Odfjell Drilling, which is managing the rig.
