A seismic survey ship is to arrive in Malta tomorrow or the following day to conduct a survey in Maltese waters as part of oil exploration efforts, Infrastructure Minister Joe Mizzi said in Parliament this evening.
He said the survey would be carried out by a company which was different from another company which would start drilling an exploratory oil well some off Malta at the end of this month.
Mr Mizzi said international interest in oil exploration in Malta was high among international firms and the government was constantly in talks.
