Exploration and Production Sharing Awards (EPSAs) covering five onshore oil and gas blocks are expected to be awarded before the end of this year, the Under-Secretary of the Ministry of Oil & Gas stated here yesterday.
Nasser bin Khamis al Jashmi said bids received for four of the five blocks are currently under evaluation, while a bid round for the fifth block was launched earlier this week.
“We’ve already opened tenders for four blocks — 51, 55, 54 and 58. Those were tendered (some time ago). Bids were received recently and are under evaluation. These blocks, along with Block 65 (tendered earlier this week) make it in all five blocks that we possibly will be able to sign this year,” Al Jashmi told journalists in Saih Rawl, the central Oman hub of Petroleum Development Oman’s (PDO) gas processing operations, yesterday.
