埃尼集团3 月 7 日报道称，其在科特迪瓦近海 Calao 发现了一项重大发现，称其为该国第二大发现。

埃尼表示，Calao发现区的Murene 1X探井位于CI-205区块，水深2,200 m，已钻探至5,000 m，在Cenomanian时代的区间遇到了轻质油、天然气和凝析油，其渗透率值从良好到优异。 。埃尼表示，初步评估表明潜在资源量在 1 Bboe 到 1.5 Bboe 之间。

埃尼还在2021 年 9 月在 CI-101 区块的 Baleine 油田获得了该国最大的发现。该油田于 2023 年 8 月开始生产。Baleine 在法语中是鲸鱼的意思，最初估计蕴藏着超过 2 桶石油和 2.4 桶石油。 Tcf 的伴生气，但 2022 年的后续发现将估计值提高至 2.5 Bbbl 和 3.3 Tcf 的伴生气。 

埃尼集团与Petroci Holding合作运营这两个区块。

Eni reported on March 7 a major find with its Calao discovery offshore Côte d’Ivoire, calling it the second largest in the country.

The Murene 1X exploration well in the Calao discovery, located in Block CI-205 in 2,200 m water depth, was drilled to 5,000 m and encountered light oil, gas and condensates in intervals of Cenomanian age characterized by good to excellent permeability values, Eni said. Preliminary assessments indicate potential resources ranging between 1 Bboe and 1.5 Bboe, Eni said.

Eni also made the largest discovery in the country with its Baleine Field in Block CI-101 in September 2021. That field started producing in August 2023. Baleine, which is French for whale, was initially estimated to hold over 2 Bbbl of oil and 2.4 Tcf of associated gas, but a follow-up discovery in 2022 increased the estimate up to 2.5 Bbbl and 3.3 Tcf of associated gas. 

Eni operates both blocks in partnership with Petroci Holding.
