Angola’s Block 1/14 Set to Deliver First Gas in 2025
Angola’s national oil and gas concessionaire, the National Oil, Gas & Biofuels Agency (ANPG), has announced that first gas from offshore Block 1/14 is expected in 2025.
The announcement was made by Paulino Jerónimo, President of ANPG, during the opening day of the Angola Oil & Gas 2025 Conference and Exhibition in Luanda on September 3.
“We anticipate first gas from the block this year and are working closely with our partners to develop the associated gas resources,” Jerónimo stated.
Gas was initially discovered in the Gajajeira-01 exploration well in July 2025, with preliminary assessments indicating volumes exceeding 1 trillion cubic feet.
The block is operated by Azule Energy with a 35% stake, in partnership with Equinor (30%), Sonangol (25%), and ACREP (10%).
The development marks a significant milestone for Angola’s offshore gas production, contributing to the country’s broader energy and industrial growth objectives.
