Investing in Namibia's energy future

ExxonMobil is increasing its exploration acreage in Namibia with the addition of approximately 7 million net acres (28,000 square kilometers) following the signing of an agreement with the government of Namibia and the National Petroleum Corporation of Namibia (NAMCOR) for blocks 1710 and 1810, and farm-in agreements with the NAMCOR for blocks 1711 and 1811A.
