Tlou recently started work on the next phase of drilling at its Lesedi project. Lesedi 6 is the first well of a planned drilling programme to expand gas production at the Lesedi project.
Gas from Lesedi 6 is planned to be used for electricity generation for the existing 10 MW power purchase agreement with Botswana Power Corporation once the transmission line, substations and associated electrical infrastructure are in place.
