Trident Energy joins forces with Chevron and TotalEnergies in offshore acquisitions to establish presence in Congolese oil and gas industry

Trident Energy, a leading oil and gas company, has made a bold move in the industry by signing a landmark agreement with Chevron Corporation. The agreement involves the acquisition of Chevron Overseas (Congo) Limited, which holds significant interests in key oil fields in the Republic of Congo.

Trident Energy is set to acquire a 31.5% non-operated working interest in the Moho-Bilondo, Nkossa, Nsoko II fields, as well as a 15.75% operated interest in the Lianzi field. Additionally, the company has inked agreements to acquire an additional 53.5% working interest in the Nkossa and Nsoko II fields from TotalEnergies, while also divesting a 10% working interest in the Moho-Bilondo field to the same company.

Upon completion of these transactions, Trident Energy will hold a significant stake in these fields, with plans to take over the operations. This strategic move is expected to strengthen the company’s presence in Africa and unlock new opportunities for growth and value creation.

Jean-Michel Jacoulot, the Chief Executive of Trident Energy ML, expressed excitement about the deal, emphasizing the company’s commitment to safe and responsible operations. The agreement marks a new chapter in Trident Energy’s growth story and underscores its strategy to acquire and operate high-quality assets.

With production facilities in key offshore fields like Moho, Nkossa, and Nsoko II, Trident Energy is poised to make a significant impact in the Republic of Congo’s oil and gas sector. The company’s focus on efficiency, innovation, and collaboration with partners is set to drive further success and create opportunities for all stakeholders involved.
