Russian oil company Lukoil has acquired a 65 percent stake in the exploration, development and production project on block CI-504 offshore the Republic of Cote d’Ivoire in the Gulf of Guinea.
Lukoil, the largest privately held oil company in Russia, said in a statement Tuesday that the stake in the offshore oil block was acquired from a private Nigerian company Taleveras Energy, which will still retain 25 percent after this transaction.
