Senegal and its neighbouring country, Mauritania, have officially become gas producers with the commencement of operations at the Grand Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) field, which spans the maritime border between the two nations.

British company BP, a key player in the project, announced in a press statement that gas production has now begun from the GTA wells.

Alongside BP, US-based Kosmos Energy, Mauritania's SMH, and Senegal's Petrosen are also involved in utilizing the field.

After six years of planning, the launch of this major project has been hailed as historic by Senegal's Oil Minister.
