  • Does Ethiopia have a petroleum industry?
  • The petroleum industry in Ethiopia, however, is still in its early stages, and the full extent of Ethiopia’s petroleum reserves have not yet been clearly established. Gathering high quality data is a top priority for Ethiopia in order to take advantage of its abundant untapped oil resources.‌
  • Could oil be found in Ethiopia?
  • There have been some gas discoveries in eastern Ethiopia, but the target in the country's west, specifically in the Sabisa well, is potential oil. This well belongs to Tullow, Africa Oil Corp. (AOI) and Marathon Oil Corp. (MRO). If oil is found in this well, it would be the first discovery in Ethiopia, as part of the same oil system found in Kenya.‌
  • Did Tullow find oil in Ethiopia?
  • Tullow's foray into Ethiopia was based on the potential for finding oil in this block, which is considered an extension of Tullow’s Kenya concessions and part of East Africa’s Tertiary Rift (which includes Uganda). If they find oil in this well, it would be the first discovery in Ethiopia.‌
  • How many oil wells does Ethiopia have?
  • There are three oil wells in Ethiopia. Ethiopia also has an estimated 3.89 billion tons of oil shale (enough to produce about one trillion barrels of oil, roughly) in Tigray State, on the border with Eritrea. It is also believed to have around 100-120 million tons of oil shale in the Delbi.‌
  • Is Tullow Oil drilling a well in Ethiopia?
  • UK-based Tullow Oil Plc (TLW) is drilling its first well in Ethiopia's South Omo Block by the end of this quarter (late February announcement). The foray into Ethiopia was based on geography.‌
  • Can Sabisa find oil in Ethiopia?
  • According to Tullow, Sabisa is targeting 140 million barrels of oil resources in Ethiopia. The Ethiopian state would take 10% of any discovery. Tullow and partners plan to build a total of 11 wells in the Kenya-Ethiopia Frontier Basin. Three of those wells will be in Ethiopia.
