(ANSA) - BUCHAREST - OMV Petrom, the largest energy company
in Romania, has launched a new drilling campaign in the Black
Sea in the shallow waters of the Istria block, the company has
announced on Monday.
Four new wells will be drilled during the campaign: three wells for the current deposits and an exploration well, with investments amounting to EUR 70 million, The Romania Journal informs.
The campaign includes the drilling of two wells by the end of this year and two other wells by mid-2018. The oil and gas output in shallow waters (Istria block) is about 30,000 barrels oil equivalent/day, representing about 18% of the group's production in Romania.
