Tower Resources PLC (LON:TRP) has told investors that it has now started work in preparation of an environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) for a multiple well drill programme for the Thali licence, offshore Cameroon.

It has carried out a tender process, hiring CIME Services of Cameroon as consultant to carry out the ESIA, along with a stakeholder consultation report – which are necessary under regulation set by the Ministry of Environment, Nature Protection and Sustainable Development of Cameroon (MINEPDED).
