Total is preparing to drill a new record offshore well at water depth of 3,628 m off the coast of Angola .

The new well being undertaken by Total will hold the world record for the deepest oil well ever drilled.

The drilling campaign in Southern Africa covers three wells altogether, two in Angola Blocks 32 and 48 - and one in Namibia .

Angola has seen some revival in the country in the beginning of 2020 .

Eni announced that its new Agogo exploration in Angola has already reached 10,000 bpd as of January 2020 .

It is yet to be seen whether Total ’s efforts will set a precedent and attract further deep well interest.
