TotalEnergies (TTE) Sees Long-Term Potential in Angola’s Offshore Oil

TotalEnergies (TTE) plans a $10 billion investment in Angola over five years to maintain and potentially increase its 450,000 barrels per day production. Funds will support existing operations, new exploration, and projects like the $6 billion Kaminho development, with a 2028 production start. Recent discoveries and new offshore blocks could add to output. High oil prices may boost project returns, but maintaining current production levels could strain returns.
