On 24 June 2019, industry sources reported that Supernova Energy BV was awarded ultra-deep-water Block 7C, which is the southwestern extend of Block 7B, yet operated by the company. A production sharing license has been signed, subject to presidential ratification. It is understood that Supernova will operate the tract with 90% interest, alongside with Petroguin (10%). However, the company will probably look for an exploration partner, similarly as Block 7B.  The undrilled Block 7C has an area of 7,160 sq km with water depths ranging 2,000 to 4,000 m. The northeastern area of the contract (close to Block 7B) has been covered by 2D seismic (2001 and 2016).
Supernova (90% op, Petroguin 10%) has reportedly secured PSC rights to a 2nd offshore block, the 7,160-sq km DW 7C.
