Pardon my enthusiasm
Doesn't everyone agree that water is gonna be the most valuable resource in the coming decades? Water wars are coming

Not for Somalia. We'll lose coastal cities but our country will get wetter. Global warming is a blessing in disguise for us.
 
Offshore Somalia can be divided into three basins:
  • Obbia Basin: Karoo and Jurassic source rocks are a very likely source of oil for these potentially very large traps. Structure is similar to Kenya's sunbird discovery offshore
  • Coriole Basin: structural and stratigraphic traps at Cretaceous and Tertiary levels are likely to have access to oil-rich hydrocarbons generated from Jurassic and Cretaceous source rocks.
  • Juba Basin: Toe thrust structures comparable to Rovuma Basin offshore Mozambique. Data survey identified an oil seed that is located near the seabed
Geologic data surveys have shown that Offshore Somali's black oil is equivalent to the Rovuma Basin, the biggest oil deposit in all of Africa. Rovuma Basin has the potential to supply 4 major European nations for 2 decades.
