Kaminho deep-water project, Angola

Name of the Project
Kaminho deep-water project.

Location
Cameia and Golfinho fields, located 100 km off the coast of Angola, in water 1 700 m deep.

Project Owner/s
TotalEnergies (40%), along with its Block 20/11 partners Petronas (40%) and Sonangol (20%).

Project Description
