Mozambique wants Total SE to quickly restart work on its $20 billion liquefied natural gas project, despite concerns that insecurity could lead to a prolonged delay, the nation’s energy minister said.
A three-year-old Islamist insurgency in the southeastern African nation’s Cabo Delgado province has intensified in recent months, with attacks occurring near Total’s concession area. The French company paused construction and began evacuating its staff this month.
