The Angolan continental shelf is one of the largest contributors to our oil production outside Norway, since 1991, when we first entered the Angolan market. This year, we are celebrating 30 years in the country, producing from three blocks - and aiming for more.
A large gas find with an underlying oil zone was proven later that year. The block was declared commercial in 1983. The neighbouring blocks were awarded to then Statoil, now Equinor, Norsk Hydro and Saga Petroleum in 1983. Block 31/2 contains 32 per cent of the Troll field's reserves, while the remaining 68% lies in the three other blocks.

India approves 31 Oil and Gas blocks India's Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs has approved the award of operatorship for a total of 31 onshore and offshore oil and gas blocks. The Cabinet said on Wednesday that the blocks consist of small oil and gas fields discovered by the Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) and Oil India Limited (OIL). Significant discoveries included the Embrar oil field (1942), the TXL oil field (1944), the Dollarhide oil field (1945), and the Block 31 oil field (1945). 35 34: 200–201, 230–231 In 1966, the production of the Permian Basin measured 600 million barrels of oil, along with 2.3 trillion cubic ft of gas, which totaled $2 billion.
Essential today, essential tomorrow.
Angola is not only a key market for today—there are in addition significant proven reserves in Angola. These untapped fields make Angola an important country for our international growth in the years to come. Through maximising value from existing assets and new exploration opportunities we have a long-term commitment to Angola.

Equinor is a partner in eight Angolan offshore producing fields in the Congo basin on the Angolan continental shelf totaling an equity production of around 120,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (2020).
Block 17
Block 17 was one of the first deep-offshore blocks to be licensed in Angola. The block is located in deep water approximately 135 kilometres from the north-eastern part of Angola. Production from the block accounts for more than half of Equinor's oil production in Angola. Block 17 oil reserves are being developed through production hubs, floating production storage and offloading vessels (FPSOs) and via subsea well technology. Our equity interest in the block is 22.1635%. Average daily equity production is approximately 90,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (2020). The licence has being extended to 2045.
Block 15
Situated approximately 145 kilometres off the northern coast of Angola. Equinor's equity interest in the block is 12%. Average daily equity production is 20,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (2020).
It was assigned to ExxonMobil in 1994, with first production commencing in 2003 from Xicomba field. Production from Kizomba A, Kizomba B and Kizomba C began in 2004, 2005 and 2008 respectively. The first production from phase I of the Kizomba satellite project was achieved in May 2012. Phase 2 of the Kizomba satellite project came on stream in May 2015. Production from the block currently comes from four floating production storage and offloading vessels (FPSOs): Kizomba A, Kizomba B, Mondo and Saxi Batuque. The licence has been extended to 2032.
Block 31
PSVM consists of four oil fields - Plutão, Saturno, Vénus and Marte – all discovered between 2002 and 2004 in water depths of up to 2,000 metres, in the North East part of Block 31. Equinor's equity interest in the block is 13.33%.
Production from the block started December 2012 and reached the plateau rate (171,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day) in February 2014. Average daily equity production is 9,320 barrels of oil equivalent per day (2020). 19 discoveries from 26 exploration wells and 6 appraisal wells. 4 have been developed so far (PSVM). Remaining 15 undeveloped discoveries are smaller and geographically spread over a considerably large area.
Block 1/14
Block 1/14 is a Risk Service Contract. ENI (35%) is the operator with partners Equinor (30%), Sonangol P&P (25%) and local company ACREP (10%). The block is located in the Lower Congo basin – east of the prolific block 15.
When Norway struck oil in the 1970s its oil and gas industry had catching up to do. International companies were invited to set up joint ventures and agreements to help the industry develop — and now look where we are today. The same approach can apply to Angola where the combination of collaboration with local partners and investment in the local area can develop the Angolan industry. Development of the state-owned company, Sonangol – now focused on its core, as well as creation of the National Agency of Petroleum and Gas (ANPG) as the new regulator for the country's oil industry, are key in this strategy. Equinor will continue to work closely with local authorities to share knowledge and competencies from NCS.
Equinor believes in being a proactive force for growth in the communities where we operate. We are responsible neighbours and want to go beyond business transactions and put purpose in what we do.
Equinor has historically provided support to increase the capacity and expertise in geoscience and petroleum engineering through the establishment of MSc and PhD programmes in Angola. In addition, we have supported the efforts to clearing mines across the country left over from the civil war that ended in 2002.
