Namibia expects to create first oil from its offshore hydrocarbon discoveries by year 2030. Appraisal drilling and testing is in progress to decide the volumes of oil set up, with the start of production positioning the country as a first-time oil maker.

stimated to hold as much as 11 billion barrels of stores, first oil spells new open doors for income age and monetary development for the southern African country.
