Senegal’s Yakaar-Teranga could reach first production in 2027, as shareholdings shake out

Operator Kosmos Energy has set a new goal for first gas production at Senegal’s offshore Yakaar-Teranga (Y-T) field, where a shakeout in equity is expected to give state company Petrosen a bigger role. Meanwhile a source has told African Energy that any renegotiation of contract terms for the Sangomar development is expected to be initiated after the 100,000 b/d field starts first production.
