Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>The Angolan oil sector has reason to smile with export figures more than satisfactory at the end of 2021-beginning of 2022. In the same vein, the historic launch of the very first oil platform in the country will take place next June.<\/b><\/p>\n

Going by the name “Lifua A”, the platform is under construction in the Malongo camp in Cabinda and should be launched into the sea in a few weeks. Supported by the giant Chevron through its local subsidiary Cabinda Gulf Oil Company Limited (CABGOC), the project required a budget of 60 million dollars.<\/p>\n

This information was made public during a three-day visit by President Joao Louren\u00e7o to Cabinda Province, during which the project was presented to him.<\/p>\n

Last February, Jos\u00e9 Barroso, Angolan Secretary of State for Oil and Gas, while presenting the results of the sector, confirmed the recovery after a terrible year in 2020. The counters showed 27.87 billion dollars in crude oil export revenues in 2021, an increase of 51.4% year on. A total of 394.22 million barrels of crude oil were shipped to Angola’s customers around the world, led by China, which bought 71.51%, followed by India (7%), according to the same source.<\/p>\n

The project which is part of the upturn in the Angolan oil sector is intended to create 300 direct jobs and will have its entry into production in late 2023.<\/p>\n
