  • Angola aims to reverse declining oil production with nine additional oil concessions by year’s end
  • New incentives, including relaxed exploration terms and updated fiscal policies, target increased investment

The nation’s current daily production sits at approximately 1.1 million barrels per day, a notable decline from its peak of around 1.8 million barrels per day over a decade ago.
