(MENAFN) CEO of UAE-based Crescent Petroleum said that the company is eying exploration opportunities in sub-Saharan Africa, Arabian Business reported.
The CEO said: “On the oil and gas side we’re looking beyond the MENA region in the old sense and we’re looking at potential in Africa [for] Crescent Petroleum. We’re looking at opportunities that are slightly wider.”
