Eco Atlantic looks to close Guyana farmout by midyear

Eco Atlantic Oil & Gas aims to finalize a farmout deal for Guyana offshore block Orinduik in the coming months, according to company president and CEO Gil Holzman.

The executive provided the update during an investor presentation where he said talks are underway with nine groups.

Holzman said the goal is to farm-out 80% and reiterated Eco’s focus on high impact prospective opportunities, not production assets.

When asked if the potential farminee includes ExxonMobilHess and CNOOC, the partners of Guyana flagship block Stabroek, Holzman said he could not disclose names due to confidentiality requirements but added that discussions are being held with “very big” companies.

Orinduik is 170km off the coast and straddles Stabroek, covering 1,354km2 with two confirmed discoveries.
