TotalEnergies has indicated that the Venus oil project is expected to commence by mid-year, and is currently in the technical development phase.

The Vice President of TotalEnergies, Mike Sangster, made the announcement when he paid a courtesy visit to President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah at state house.

Total Energies has donated patrol gear to the Van Rhyn Primary School's scholar patrol programme, aimed at improving road safety and reducing the risk of accidents.

The Ministry of Industries, Mines, and Energy says the reported acquisition of a participating interest in a petroleum exploration license between TotalEnergies and Petrobras cannot be recognised as concluded until the required legal process has been followed.
 

In recent developments in the energy sector, TotalEnergies held consultations in Lüderitz as part of the environmental impact assessment process.

This process is a crucial step in their plans for oil exploration in the Orange Basin, located off the coast of Namibia.

The National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia (NAMCOR) is making progress with detailed post-well studies.

These studies involve analysing core samples, logging data, and fluid samples gathered from the Venus wells.
