The Ivorian government – through the Ministry of Mines, Petroleum and Energy, electric utility CI-Energies and National Oil Company Petroci – has signed a contract with global oil and gas major Eni for the supply of natural gas sourced from blocks CI-101 and CI-802 in the Baleine field.
Major consuming nations are using more natural gas while production in 2022 remained flat compared to 2021 levels.
