Exploration venues outside the mature upstream environments of North America and Europe offer the best opportunities for E&P companies to create and grow value. Finding and development costs are more competitive, and multiple reserve replacement options are more plentiful.

With the experience, talent and track record of its team, a solid financial base and a focused strategy, Kosmos is exceptionally well positioned to capitalize on international opportunities, particularly in West Africa.

Major field discoveries and developments and business and financial transactions in which members of the Kosmos team have participated include:
