Addax Petroleum - Port-Gentil, Gabon

Addax Petroleum was named after a type of antelope that can be found in Saharan Africa. It is particularly known for its ability to survive in harsh environments and is considered the most well adapted antelope to a desert environment as it is able to get most of the water it needs from plants.

The addax antelope is a perfect symbol to embody the spirit of Addax Petroleum and the Company’s culture and philosophy. The addax brings us closer to the continent where we started our operations and reflects our deep and continuous attachment to Africa as well as our capacity to adapt and prosper in areas deemed to offer little by transforming local resources into strong assets for growth.
