Namibia witnessing increased oil rig interest

"Norwegian deepwater driller, Odfjell Drilling, says Namibia’s oil and gas sector is witnessing a significant uptick in demand driven by recent exploration successes and heightened interest from industry players.

Odfjell Chief Executive Officer Kjetil Gjersdal said with an expanding roster of operators and growing enquiries for rigs, the region is poised for substantial growth. “Namibia remains a very interesting region for us, and we are all aware of the recent discovery that has been announced down there. Of note, we’ve had new enquiries from potential clients and are also in firm discussions with clients who are looking for rigs in that region,” he said during a quarterly results announcement recently."
