Here's what a lot of people don't understand, that information belongs to Namcor and it is at their discretion to release all or none of it, not Reco's
What is ReconAfrica’s policy in regard to petroleum data?
In Namibia, the Petroleum Act, 1991, outlines that the control of and ownership of petroleum data vests in the Government of the Republic of Namibia under the custodian of the Minister of Mines and Energy (MME), by virtue of the powers given to its officials. The data is confidential for a period of 5 years.
There are circumstances under which ReconAfrica, NAMCOR and MME may share, publish and/or reproduce petroleum data which are:
a) NAMCOR and/or ReconAfrica may share, publish and/or reproduce petroleum data when consent is obtained from the Minister of Mines and Energy
b) NAMCOR and/or ReconAfrica may provide the data to an affiliate, assignee, professional advisor, bank or financial institution, contractor, any stock exchange for purposes of complying with securities law or a court of competent jurisdiction to comply with a court order.
c) NAMCOR and/or ReconAfrica may trade data with third parties in accordance with normal petroleum industry practice provided consent is obtained from the Minister of Mines and Energy.
This policy is very consistent with oil and gas laws in jurisdictions where the sovereign owns subsurface rights. ReconAfrica’s policy is to strictly honour applicable law. For well data, ReconAfrica will capture all the data from all sources at the end of each well program, and transfer data to the MME. After official acceptance, a request for the release of data under certain circumstances (as per above) can be made.
