Bolivia has discovered its largest natural gas field in nearly two decades at Mayaya Centro X1, estimated to hold 1.7 trillion cubic feet of gas.
The discovery brings hope for Bolivia to resolve its fuel shortage crisis and foreign currency crunch, as well as regain its position as a major natural gas exporter.
The $50 million investment in the drilling project is seen as a significant step towards economic recovery and a new era of oil and gas production in Bolivia.
