Qatar Petroleum entered into a farm-in agreement with Total E&P to acquire a 45% participating interest in two blocks located in the Ivorian-Tano basin, offshore the Republic of Côte d’Ivoire.

The two blocks, covering some 3,200 km2, present multitarget hydrocarbon prospects in water depths ranging from 1000 to 2000 m, 35 km from shore and about 100 km from nearby Foxtrot, Espoir, and Baobab fields.

The farm-in agreement is subject to customary approvals by the Côte d’Ivoire government.
