Bapco Energies, the integrated company leading the energy transition in the Kingdom of Bahrain, and EOG Resources Inc., a leading U.S.-based hydrocarbon exploration company, have signed a landmark agreement to evaluate a promising gas exploration prospect in the Kingdom.
The signing ceremony builds on the high-level discussions held in early January 2025 where His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, His Majesty’s Representative for Humanitarian Work and Youth Affairs, Chairman of Bapco Energies met with an EOG delegation to explore opportunities in hydrocarbon exploration and innovative energy solutions.
Mark Thomas, Group CEO of Bapco Energies, announced a collaboration with EOG Resources, Inc. on a gas exploration project in Bahrain, with drilling expected to begin in 2025. He noted that this initiative aligns with the Kingdom’s National Energy Strategy, leveraging strategic partnerships and advanced technologies to develop natural resources that contribute to Bahrain’s sustainable economic growth.
The agreement underscores Bapco Energies’ commitment to advancing the Kingdom of Bahrain’s energy transition through innovation and strategic partnerships.
