In March 2014, LUKOIL, partnering with Goodwin Capital LLC (which has constructed the pipelines for the project), joined the offshore deepwater project at the Tano block (Deepwater Tano/Cape Three Points) on the shelf of Ghana in West Africa (the deal was closed in October 2015). The Tano block’s area is a little over 2 thousand km2. It is located in the western part of Ghana’s water area in the Gulf of Guinea, 80 km offshore in the vicinity of the Cameroonian coast. Water depth at the block ranges from 1.6 to 3 thousand meters.

Seven hydrocarbon fields were discovered within the block: five oil fields and two gas fields.
