About the Cabora Bassa Project
The Cabora Bassa Project encompasses the Mzarabani Prospect, a multi-TCF and liquids rich conventional gascondensate target, which is potentially the largest, undrilled seismically defined structure onshore Africa. The
prospect is defined by a robust dataset acquired by Mobil in the early 1990s that includes seismic, gravity,
aeromagnetic and geochemical data.
