Gabonese oil round: Libreville accepts candidates’ pleas and postpones to April
The auctions announced at the end of 2018 for 35 oil blocks off the coast of Gabon were due to take place on 10 January. But, at the request of the oil companies, the government has decided to extend this deadline to the end of April.

The companies interested in the call for tenders launched on 7 November 2018 “have requested an extension of the closing date for the submission of bids initially scheduled for 10 January 2020,” explained Gabon’s Ministry of Mines, Petroleum and Hydrocarbons. Libreville has therefore extended the deadline to 30 April 2020.
