Kevin McLachlan, Senior Vice-President Exploration of TotalEnergies, stated, "Following the encouraging prospectivity interpreted on the 3D seismic data on adjacent Block STP01, TotalEnergies continues to progress its exploration effort in Sao Tome and Principe, by entering this promising license, thereby maintaining the optionality of the Company's portfolio"

Last week, TotalEnergies announced that it had won the maritime concession N-11.2 from the German Federal Network Agency.
