The 2007 discovery opened the door to a new hydrocarbon province, putting the West African country on the map. More oil and gas finds followed, including the TEN fields along with the Sankofa, Gye and Nyame fields. Companies such as Exxon Mobil Corp. have since joined a list of explorers that includes Kosmos Energy, Tullow Oil and Eni SpA.

(GNPC), referring to activity following Jubilee.
