Companies interested in bidding for the blocks are required to submit the necessary documentation by a 30 April deadline to take part in a pre-qualification exercise, with the round to be launched a month later on 30 May, according to state-owned oil company Sonangol.
The 10 blocks are each estimated to hold resources of 700,000 barrels, with seven on offer in the Kwanza basin and the remaining tracts in the Lower Congo basin.
