Neuerlich scheint man in der Tiefsee ein evtl. vielversprechendes Gasfeld entdeckt zu haben, es trägt den Namen "Leopard 1" [sic!] und liegt vor der Küste von Gabun in einer Tiefe von über 2.000 m (insgesamt über 5.000 m bis zur Lagerstätte). Die Meldung stammt aus der dritten Oktoberwoche:

Shell announced a frontier exploration discovery offshore Gabon, West Africa. The well Leopard-1 encountered a substantial gas column with around 200 metres net gas pay in a pre-salt reservoir.
Leopard-1 is located around 145 kilometres off the Gabonese coast, west of Gamba. It was drilled in water 2,110 metres deep to a total vertical depth of 5,063 metres. Shell and partners are planning to undertake an appraisal programme to further determine the resource volumes. [...] Leopard-1 was drilled in license BCD10, operated by Shell (75%). Second partner in the venture is CNOOC Limited (25%).
