About Cobalt
In 2014, Cobalt expanded our global expertise
to 205 employees, along with 116 contractors
and 14 secondees, working in Houston, Luanda,
Angola and o„shore.
Since our founding in 2005, our oil-focused,
below-salt exploration e„orts have been
successful in each of our three operating areas,
resulting in ten discoveries out of the seventeen
exploration prospects drilled.
These ten discoveries consist of North Platte,
Heidelberg, Shenandoah and Anchor in the U.S.
Gulf of Mexico; Cameia, Lontra, Mavinga, Bicuar
and Orca o„shore Angola; and Diaman o„shore
Gabon. Cobalt is progressing six major projects
through appraisal and development, which will
generate significant production and operating
cash flow from nine of these ten discoveries in
the early 2020’s.
