Statoil and partner ExxonMobil will post updated total volumes in Block 2 in 2013. The Lavani-2 discovery is the third Tanzania discovery. Nick Maden, senior vice president in Exploration International in Statoil, said: "These three discoveries continue to support our confidence in the Block 2 potential in Tanzania.
