bp in Mauritania

Since entering Mauritania and Senegal, bp partnered with Kosmos Energy, Société Mauritanienne Des Hydrocarbures (SMH) and Société des Pétroles du Sénégal (PETROSEN) on the development of the multi-phase Greater Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) Project.

In July 2021, the GTA project was granted the status of National Project of Strategic Importance by the Presidents of Mauritania and Senegal. This important recognition shows the commitment of the host governments and the importance of the project to both countries.

In Mauritania, bp has active working interests, including operatorship, in the offshore block C8. Our partners in the blocks are Société Mauritanienne Des Hydrocarbures (SMH) and Kosmos Energy.
