The first explorations began in 1915, resulting in the drilling of eight wells along the southern edge, with the highlight being the discovery of hydrocarbons in the N’gond well. On the other hand, in the Kwanza Basin located around the mouth of the river with the same name, covering an area of approximately 25,000 km2, a natural gas field and 12 oil fields have been discovered since the start of its activity.
The National Agency for Petroleum, Gas and Biofuels promotes the event as the National Concessionaire, holding mining rights for the exploration, research, development, and production of liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons in the Angolan territory.
