TotalEnergies SE is working on a plan to develop gas discoveries in South Africa with its partners and the government, according to its managing director in the country.

The oil major starting in 2019 has made discoveries of gas and condensate -- a light liquid hydrocarbon -- offshore the most industrialized nation in Africa. After overcoming strong offshore currents to drill the wells, the company is now in talks “on how we can make it happen,” Mariam Kane-Garcia, TotalEnergies South Africa managing director said at a conference in Cape Town.
