Somalia optimization of oil yield
Somalia Oil Reserves, Production and Consumption
Somalia consumes 5,600 barrels per day (B/d) of oil as of the year 2016.; Somalia ranks 173rd in the world for oil consumption, accounting for about 0.006% of the world's total consumption of 97,103,871 barrels per day.; Somalia consumes 0.02 gallons of oil per capita every day (based on the 2016 population of 14,185,636 people), or 6 gallons per capita per year (0 barrels).

Aug 06, 2024· Somalia remained off the radar for oil exploration companies for 25 years after the collapse of the government in 1991. Existing geological and geophysical data were mostly lost or destroyed. The regulator says that the licensing round is supported by 20,185 km seismic data, complementing 20,500 km of existing seismic data acquired in 2014.
Soma Oil & Gas
In May 2015, the company proposed a deal that could grant it up to 90% of Somalia's oil revenue. A draft production-sharing agreement says the government's share of revenue on the first 25,000 barrels (4,000 m 3 ) of oil per day at 10% if found at a depth of greater than 1,000 m and when oil costs less than $70 per barrel ($440/m 3 ).
With the exception of Sea Lion, all major offshore oil discoveries have been successfully developed and have achieved commercial production. The ability to market oil directly from a floating production facility (FPSO) makes commercialisation easier. Geologists’ early prognosis is that offshore Somalia is more likely oil
Somalia: The new oil and gas frontier
Somalia fits the bill for bona fide frontier status. It is relatively unexplored, and only one offshore well has been drilled to date; Seismic surveys in 2014 and 2015, shot respectively by Soma Oil and Gas and Spectrum, were the first to map the deep

At high temperatures, oil recovery becomes extremely low due to hardening of samples. There was a significant increase in oil yield when applied pressure was increased up to 20 MPa, but oil yield decreased when the pressure increased to 25 MPa (Fig. 5, Fig. 6, Fig. 7, Fig. 8). This could be due to the sealing of some inter kernel voids at this
