With the new legislative authorization, the concession period is extended to 2050.<\/p>\n<p>The diploma aims to leverage the socio-economic development of the province of Cabinda, through the application of tax benefits with a direct impact on the local business fabric and on the lives of the people, increasing the level of own income and improving people&#8217;s quality of life.<\/p>\n<p>The Minister of Mineral Resources and Petroleum, Diamantino Azevedo, said that extending the concession to 2050 would allow for an investment of US$15 billion, which should guarantee production of more than 800 million barrels, with the State 70 percent and associates 30 percent.<\/p>\n<p>He also indicated that the State will raise additional revenues of USD 13 billion, making a total of USD 27 billion.<\/p>\n<p>According to the minister, the extension of Block 0 will also allow for an increase in the supply of natural gas for the production of electricity at the Malembo Thermal Power Station and the potential for cost reductions of around US$100 million.<\/p>\n<p>By way of example, he noted that, as a result of the investment made in light of the extension of this concession contract, the volumes of gas supplied to the Malembo Thermal Power Station for the production of electricity will increase from around 11 million cubic feet to 26 million cubic feet, allowing three of the four turbines installed there to run on gas.<\/p>\n<p>Block 0, where the Lifua A platform is installed, is located around 30 miles off the coast of Cabinda.<\/p>\n<p>A total of four concessionaires operate in Block 0, namely Cabinda Gulf Oil Company, a subsidiary of Chevron, Sonangol EP, Total Petroleum Angola Limited and ENI Angola Production BV. Chevron is the second largest concessionaire in Block 0 after Sonangol EP.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/angola\">Angola<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
