Videocon Industries and its partners including Amadarko, Cove Energy and BPRL have discovered gas in the Lagosta well in Mozambique, the consortium’s third gas discovery in the region.
The Lagosta discovery, located approximately 16 miles to the south of the previously announced Barquentine discovery, significantly expands the group’s natural gas province and has the potential to support a liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility. BPCL and Videocon are 20% partners of the block. It is expected that they will play a role in the development of the LNG plant to cater to India’s energy requirements.
Videocon Industries owns 10 blocks in Brazil, one in Mozambique, one in Indonesia, and one in East Timor and another in Australia as well as Ravva in India. Videocon’s largest exploration focus is South America and Africa. The $5-billion Videocon Group announced plans to set up a committee to rejig its businesses and unlock shareholder value. The company is expected to spin off its oil and gas business into a separate SPV through an initial public offering or demerger.crackcrack
