The consortium’s initial work program for Block 8 consists of acquiring a 1,200 km² 3D seismic survey to further assess the area’s exploration potential.
“Although the drilling of the Qana well on Block 9 did not give positive results, we remain committed to pursue our exploration activities in Lebanon. We will now focus our efforts on Block 8, together with our partners Eni and QatarEnergy, and in close cooperation with Lebanese authorities”, said Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies.
