OMV Petrom replaced Total Energies as the operator of the Han Asparuh deep water perimeter in Bulgaria, according to Economica.net, quoting a note in the company’s yearly report, BTA informed. OMV holds 51% of the shares in the Romanian subsidiary, while the Romanian government holds 20%. "We continue to strengthen our position in the Black Sea. We have taken on the role of operator and will continue exploration activities in the Han Asparuh perimeter in Bulgaria," said OMV Petrom in its annual report.
