Old colonial operation started some time in the 1900s, unproductive since independence. Still in planning phase. Can not find anything about this operation on their website (in 2020). Also did not find any recent reports on this deal. Only see the company investment in liquefied nat-ural gas (FLNG) project on the Area 4 block in the Rovuma Basin.
