  • TotalEnergies acquires from Galp a 40% operated interest in the PEL83 license, holding the Mopane discovery, and;
  • Galp acquires from TotalEnergies a 10% participating interest in the PEL56 license, holding the Venus discovery and a 9.39% participating interest in the PEL91 license.

Further to the completion of this transaction, TotalEnergies holds a 40% operated interest in the PEL83 license alongside Galp (40%), Namcor (10%) and Custos (10%), a 35.25% operated interest in the PEL56 license, alongside QatarEnergy (35.25%), Galp (10%), Namcor (10%) and Impact (9.5%), as well as a 33.09% operated interest in PEL91 alongside QatarEnergy (33.03%), Namcor (15%), Impact (9.5%) and Galp (9.39%).

"We would like to thank the Namibian authorities for their swift approval of this strategic transaction with Galp, our new partner in Namibia. TotalEnergies' entry as operator of the giant Mopane discovery marks a key milestone in our journey to establish a major production hub in Namibia," said Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies. "This transaction positions TotalEnergies as the operator of Namibia's two largest oil discoveries and strengthens its position in the Orange Basin, supporting the long-term value creation from prolific licenses. Exploration opportunities are already lining up beyond the Mopane development, which we will start appraising as early as the second half of 2026 aiming at taking the FID of the project in 2028, after a 3 appraisal well campaign."
