Report summary
The Sab’atayn Basin is one of two key petroleum provinces in Yemen. It is located onshore on the southern edge of the Arabian Peninsula. The production history of the basin dates back to the 1980s, when the giant Alif field was discovered and brought onstream by the Yemen Exploration and Production Company (YEPC) joint-venture. In 2013, a licencing round opened to new applications, aiming to generate interest in petroleum exploration. Three new blocks were awarded in the basin. However, ongoing political turmoil in Yemen since 2014 has effectively brought further new licence awards or exploration work to a halt for the foreseeable future.
