Angkor’s historic oil & gas mission

Could Cambodia be on the brink of making energy history?

Angkor Resources (TSX-V:ANK) is pushing towards what could be the country’s first-ever onshore oil and gas wells, and CEO Delayne Weeks says a successful discovery could transform Cambodia’s economic future.

With three large geological structures identified, oil and gas seeps at surface, and drilling targeted for early 2027, Angkor is preparing for a potentially historic exploration campaign.

Key topics discussed:

  • History in the making: The tender process that could bring Cambodia its first onshore oil and gas drilling campaign
  • A promising frontier: Why three massive geological structures at Block VIII have Angkor excited about what may lie beneath the surface
  • A nation-changing opportunity?: How a commercial discovery could support domestic energy production, jobs, and economic development
  • The countdown begins: What needs to happen before drilling can commence in early 2027

About the guest and company
Delayne Weeks is the CEO of Angkor Resources, a Canadian-listed exploration company advancing mineral and energy projects in Cambodia. Angkor holds two mineral exploration licences containing multiple copper and gold prospects, including Andong Meas and Andong Bor. Through its Cambodian subsidiary EnerCam Resources, Angkor also holds the 4,095km² Block VIII onshore oil and gas licence in southwest Cambodia, where it is working towards the country’s first onshore exploration wells.

Could this be the beginning of a new era for Cambodia’s energy industry? Watch the full interview!
