Head of strategy and business development Arvid Moss signed the memorandum on behalf of Hydro at a ceremony here, while energy minister Emanuela Vieira Lopes and deputy industry minister Kiala Gabriel signed on behalf of the government of Angola.
Reuters reports that the memorandum marks the first step towards exploring this project opportunity, and that the government of Angola and Hydro are now entering an early fact-finding phase.
