GEOExPro April 2016 53 54 GEOExPro April 2016 Somalia''s Exploration Journey Exploration in Somalia began onshore in 1956 with the drilling of the Sagaleh-1 well, followed by a number of wells drilled mostly in the north of the country. These clearly established the presence of a working Jurassic hydrocarbon system, as illustrated by the 1959 Daga

On 4 August 2020, the Somali Petroleum Authority announced the opening of the country''s first-ever offshore licensing round. This licensing round features up to seven blocks that are up for the bidding process which are estimated to be among the most promising areas for petroleum exploration and production in Somalia.
The seismic interpretation of rifting and accommodation space development in the Mogadishu Deep and contemporary continental extension in the Mid-Somalia High, combined with the integration of the earliest dated anomalies (145 Ma) marking the locus of initial organised oceanic spreading, permitted recognition of orthogonal rifting for a period
ADIPEC 2024 takes place from 4-7 November in Abu Dhabi, focusing on how energy can drive an economy-wide transformation benefiting people, the planet, and global prosperity. This event gathers over 2,200 organisations from across the global energy sector to showcase cutting-edge innovations shaping the future of energy.

Somalia''s first offshore licensing round commenced in August 2020, opening up one of the final frontier regions of the world for oil and gas exploration. Offshore Somalia is one of the few remaining frontier areas in the world. Only one exploration well, Meregh-1, has been drilled along the country''s entire 1,200 km-long margin.
Latest news from Expro. Getech (AIM: GTC), a world-leading locator of subsurface resources, has strategically partnered with Expro (NYSE: XPRO), a leading provider of energy services, to propel low-carbon geoenergy projects, including geothermal energy, natural hydrogen and carbon capture and storage (CCS).
Somalia: Energy intensity: how much energy does it use per unit of GDP? Click to open interactive version. Energy is a large contributor to CO 2 – the burning of fossil fuels accounts for around three-quarters of global greenhouse gas emissions. So, reducing energy consumption can inevitably help to reduce emissions.

New seismic data from offshore Somalia are revealing extraordinary structures, in an oil-prone frontier province that has never been seen or explored before. The data correlate closely with the potential field results, and the most recent seismic is imaging gigantic structures that have never been mapped before.

Somalia’s first offshore licensing round commenced in August 2020, opening up one of the final frontier regions of the world for oil and gas exploration. Offshore Somalia is one of the few remaining frontier areas in the world. Only one exploration well, Meregh-1, has been drilled along the country’s entire 1,200 km-long margin.
One of the most exciting aspects of the seismic interpretation is that, unlike much of East Africa where gas discoveries are the norm, TGS believe that there is a strong possibility of oil-prone prospects offshore the whole length of the Somalian margin.
New seismic data studies from Spectrum indicate high potential for hydrocarbon exploration in offshore Somalia, with excellent opportunities on offer in the region's 1st Licencing Round. By Karyna Rodriguez, Neil Hodgson and David Eastwell, Spectrum Geo; Abdulkadir Abiikar Hussein, Mopmr, Federal Government of Somalia
Offshore Somalia remains one of the last truly frontier passive margins in the world, with only two exploration wells offshore along the 1,000 km-long margin.
On 4 August 2020, the Somali Petroleum Authority announced the opening of the country’s first-ever offshore licensing round. This licensing round features up to seven blocks that are up for the bidding process which are estimated to be among the most promising areas for petroleum exploration and production in Somalia.
Now, after ten years of relative political peace, Somalia is set to emerge as the new hot-spot for the industry, offering not only vast reserves to match the Rovuma Basin of Mozambique, but also the most elusive of prizes in East Africa – black oil.

The European energy storage market is booming with Germany leading residential adoption (+58% YoY) thanks to €500/kWh subsidies. Italy's new tax credits drive 5.2GWh commercial deployments, while UK grid-scale projects exceed 8GWh with 2-hour duration systems. Key selection criteria: German-certified safety (VDE-AR-E 2510), 10+ year warranties, and VPP readiness. Top-performing products include Sonnen's hybrid inverters (98% efficiency) and BYD's Blade Battery (12,000 cycles @80% DoD). For snowy regions like Scandinavia, consider Huawei's -30°C compatible systems. France mandates carbon footprint declarations - Sungrow's ISO-14067 certified solutions gain preference.
For European homeowners, 5-10kWh systems with 3-phase compatibility are ideal. Top picks: 1) Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5kWh, 97% round-trip efficiency) for smart home integration; 2) LG Chem RESU Prime for compact urban installations; 3) SMA Sunny Boy Storage for retrofit projects. Critical features: EU-made battery cells (exempt from CBAM tariffs), dynamic tariff optimization (like Octopus Energy integration), and fire-safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Southern Europe demands 85%+ depth of discharge capability, while Nordic markets require -25°C operation. Always verify CEI 0-21 compliance for Italian grid connection and EnWG certification for German feed-in.
