The Dominican Oil Refinery (Refidomsa) has just released a study carried out by its Investigative and Exploration Unit that reaffirms there are exploitable deposits of gas and oil in the areas of Azua, San Juan de la Maguana, Enriquillo and the Cibao Valley.

Leonardo Aguilera, the president of the refinery’s board of directors, noted that the study will direct exploration efforts to sites based on geological and geophysical elements.

The research was carried out under the coordination of the investigative unit of the refinery by the Pedro Henriquez Ureña University(UNPHU) and the Santander University of Colombia.
