The reserve is the largest finding for Repsol in 19 years and features in the top 10 largest findings in the world in 2018. The company is looking forward to operate and extract the reserve in 2019-20. It is estimated that the reserve will provide at least 2 Trillion Cubic feet of natural gas.

Adoption of Natural Gas as energy source: CEO Josu Jon Imazin 2018 quoted that “Repsol is looking forward to reduce carbon-based source of energy and wants to invest on natural Oil reserves as a part of their sustainability measures. With the recent findings, this offers great advantage. Almost in all developed nations CNG is being used as fuel for automobiles and is likely to replace petrol and diesel completely. Repsol has recently acquired assets from Viesgo’s in a bid for low-emission business with the potential for massive growth and profitability that has already provided 750000 customers and has increased Repsol’s capacity to 2950 MW in 2018.
