CAPE TOWNS FUTURE DEVELOMENTS

MERGING THE CITY WITH THE PEOPLE The oil findings(Namibia and west coast of SA and other parts of our waters) will make this project easier for the state. Yes I mentioned Namibia because theyr one of our provinces/states we share alot in common language and alles. Their oil findings has led us to our findings that we had oil in the ATLANTIC OCEAN, Orange Basin and Outeniqua Basin and on the INDIAN OCEAN Mozambiques and Madagascar(21bbl of oil) findings have led us to findings in Zululand coast.

Kenya=10 billion barrels

Videocon's Mozambique block finds 17bn barrels of oil

SHARE . EMAIL . PRINT . A+

Gas company Anadarko has discovered a substantial quantity of gas in two gas wells off the coast of Mozambique. India's Videocon and BPCL, both have 10% stake in those gas wells and it is being considered as one of the largest gas finds in the world.

Anadarko informed that its Atum Discovery Well encountered 92 metres gas pay. Atum and Golfinho gas wells are also believed to hold 10-30 Tcf of gas. The company further told that the offshore Area I Recoverable Resource is approaching 100 Tcf of gas.

In an interview with CNBC-TV18, Venugopal Dhoot, CMD, Videocon is elated with the discovery and says that it is indeed a very good news for the country . He said that the exploration could lead to the procurement of as much as 17 billion barrels of oil and India is eligible for a 20% share.

Dhoot further added that the Rovuma Area I is one of the largest ever gas finds globally. However, only two-third of Rovuma's area has been drilled and further drilling is expected in the second half of CY12. Although, the company has not fixed any timeline for oil and gas demerger, Dhoot calculates the NPV(Net Present Value) of Videocon's stake in the Mozambique block at USD 6.5 billion.

Below is the edited transcript of the interview on CNBC-TV18. Also watch the accompanying videos.

Q: Can you tell us about the discovery off the coast of Mozambique? What is the amount that Anadarko is talking about?

A: It's a very good news for India. India will be having 20% of the gas. Anadarko said that about 60 tcf of gas has been found and it is approaching the recoverable 60 trillion and it is approaching towards 100 trillion recovered reserve. It is equal to 17 billion barrels of oil and Videocon and BPCL both have 20% share in the gas well.

It's a very big find and very big news. I should say this is one of the largest gas find in the world as on today and from the beginning Mozambique field has been very successful to Videocon and it started from 10 Tcf and now it is talking about 100 Tcf. This is enviable to any gas producer in the world.

Q: Just wanted to come down with regards to the 10% stake that Videocon holds in this oil discovery. What exactly would it value your stake at this point in time and give us a sense in terms of the modalities of the possible demerger of your oil and gas business? Where would all of this stand now?

A: That demerger will come later. I think NPV calculation at today's rate should come to around USD 6.5 billion for Videocon. It's a great news. It's a great success. That should be the value and our other partners would also benefit.

This is just the beginning. Just one-third area of Mozambique has been discovered so far. Mozambique is now approaching to be as big as Qatar and it is good news for Videocon and India.

As we speak 112million people in Naija live below $1 a day. Over 80 million or half of Nigerias population live in RURAL AREAS/VILLAGE boys(where theres poor roads,no electricity,poor education etc..). Am sure this makes ya'll feel better heyPOOR GIANTS wanna be. Their HDI index is still low... In HIV AIDS a research by a Nigerian Prof in UCT and Indian research institute shows Nigeria and India will overtake SA in HIV AIDS by 2016 onwards.

Are you always on drugs? I can't imagine any individual that is so disorganized to your level. Mind you, discovery oil in large quantity is one thing getting it floating to where they are needed is another. So, the claims of finding oil in all those countries will not come upstream until 2-5 years, before they can be fulling operational to full capacity. Before then Nigeria is still going to export more than the others in the continent. I don't see how finding oil in other African countries means Nigeria will not export it oil? I am waiting for you to prove it.

It is surprising how foreigners like you come to point out the validity of projects happening in Nigeria with complete misinformation. The truth is that you are just another hater who has little or no fact about what is happening in that country. over 70% of the area has be sold out and that just prove you wrong. There is ongoing building construction on the first phase of the project as we are commenting on this forum.

I will provide information below to support my argument with links, image and videos to help you with good ideas about what is going on at Eko Atlantic City.

I still say NIGERIANS make noise about SMALL THINGS DURBAN is doing a similar project on the TIP OF DURBAN HARBOUR. The PROJECT IS CALLED DURBAN POINT WATERFRONT we still have created threads dubbing it as the next big thing under the sun. Maybe its because we're used to BIG PROJECTS IN SOUTH AFRICA AND FEW OF US ARE VILLAGERS(Over 80million Nigerians are villagers and easy to fool).

Again CAPE TOWN URBAN RENEWAL PROJECT is another project in Cape Town thats gonna take place. [b]Led by AWARD WINNING BLACK SOUTH AFRICAN GOOD LOOKING YOUNG ARCHITECT MOKENA MAKEKA [/b]is going to benefit people of Cape Town(especially those who were removed by group areas act where blacks and coloureds,Indians were were removed in cities and placed in townships).

Look at this pathetic loser coming here to soil my beautiful Eko Atlantic City with hates. Look at this SA discriminated and self-inflicted inferiority individual coming here to make my baby Eko Atlantic City lose its worth.

I have seen all those South African projects and there is none that can be compared to my Eko Atlantic City. They are not on the same level and scale of things to happen in the 7 KM city that is being built on a reclaimed land from the Atlantic ocean, wild hand that has eroded the shore of the African second largest city(possibly the largest by population) for years.

What makes it a city within a city is it dynamics of having functional qualities of a city, from population to infrastructure. That you failed to comprehend. You have no any idea about this part of Lagos that will be residence to over one hundred thousand population and have one of African best amenities.

I am a little bit disturbed by your comments. Indeed, I think you have some mental and obsession about Nigeria to deal with. Truly, Nigeria is the giant of Africa that can put fear in SA people's minds. That you have just proved with your insecurity here in this thread.

The only advice I have for you is, if you are really good in your field you better come to Lagos and prove your skill and let Eko Atlantic City employ you and give you big pay.

@All4Naija
NOTE THIS IS A CITY BUILT FROM SCRATCH NORTH OF DURBAN(Durbs is receiving its own projects like the waterfront and centrum).

CHALLENGE The challenge for the 16,500-hectare (40,590-acre) property was to create a new city and environment for over 400,000 residents on an existing veld (grassland) populated by giraffe, zebra, springbok and crocodiles. The site is next to the Indian Ocean, 40 minutes north of the new King Shaka International Airport, near Durban.

SOLUTION AmaZulu Valley is a visionary project that will embody the ideal of an African renaissance that has relevance to today's awareness of conservation as well as the intrinsic qualities of the Zulu culture. Taking inspiration from the Zulus belief of stewardship of the land a storyline was created based on the elements of earth, wind, fire and water. This vision creates an opportunity to utilize many revolutionary sustainable design elements. A manmade lake becomes the focus of the heart of the master plan including theme parks, a city walk, iconic hotels and a downtown office development. The site is 40% developed while 60% open, green space is preserved to allow the wild animals' access around the site to existing grazing and water.

SIZE 16,500 Hectares/165million sqaures

AMENITIES King Shaka Zulu cultural center, theme park, water park, city walk, urban core, hotels, resorts and spas, sports village, golf courses, marina, residential developments, offices, education facilities and eleven Zulu villages.

Hahaha... This is very laughable. You are comparing more or less a city block projects in SA to a city within a cosmopolitan city. It is either you don't know how to convert km^2 to hectares or vice versa. 7 KM^2 is 700,000 hectares my friend. The business district alone is 700,000 square meters. So, all your project added together is still very small when compare to Eko Atlantic city.

Keep deceiving yourself. The truth is that there is no ongoing project in Africa that is better than Eko Atlantic City at the moment, none in SA.

I wouldn't say you can cry me a river, dude. But, I am having my baby city breathing heavily alive. You can visit this Wiki link
