The approvals will allow Timor Resources to prepare for the drilling of the Well,” Vice President of the ANPM, Jose Manuel Goncalves told reporters at the Kay Rala Xanana Gusmão airport in Covalima, on Monday.
Prime Minister Taur Matan Ruak would officially launch the spud-ding on october 27, 2021, following the approval of the safety case document.
