The international tenders are in the Ionian Sea west of Greece and west-southwest of Crete. The promotions are initiated by an expression of interest submitted by the joint venture of Total SA, ExxonMobil Corp., and Hellenic Petroleum (Helpe), which seeks to develop the area offshore Crete. The western Greece Ionian block has been submitted by Energean Oil and Gas.
In addition to seismic packages, HHRM is also making available all well data outside previously awarded blocks. The offshore wells Patra 1, West Katakolon 1, 1A, and 2, the onshore Katakolon 101, 102, 103, 104, and 105 are not available commercially but can be reviewed in the Ministry’s data room.
