VAALCO Energy, through its subsidiary, has inked a deal to purchase Svenska Petroleum Exploration for $66.5 million, gaining significant interests in offshore oil fields in Cote d’Ivoire and Nigeria. This strategic acquisition, which is expected to close in the second quarter of 2024, is contingent on regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.
