In light of the substantial success and steadily growing relationships with the Guinea government from the president on down, Mr Kourouma is expanding his responsibility to neighboring countries along the west African transform margin where as many as 40 new discoveries of oil and gas have been made over the last few years.
As the company develops a portfolio of drillable prospects with potential for reserves offshore Guinea, Mr Kourouma will work to position the company to extend its concession holdings.
Kent Watts, CEO of Hyperdynamics, said: With our exciting world-class prospects developing offshore Guinea and considering the accelerating activity in the region by potential joint venture partners, we have decided to expand Famourou’s role and selectively pursue additional opportunities there.
