    Extractions: Gabon Introduction Back to Top Gabon, officially Gabonese Republic (in French, République Gabonaise), independent nation in central Africa, located astride the Equator, and bounded on the north-west by Equatorial Guinea, on the north by Cameroon, on the east and south by the Republic of Congo, and on the west by the Atlantic Ocean. A former French colony, Gabon achieved independence on August 17, 1960. The area of Gabon is 267,667 sq km (103,347 sq mi). The capital of the country is Libreville. Official Name -The Gabonese Republic 9 provinces; Estuaire, Haut-Ogooue, Moyen-Ogooue, Ngounie, Nyanga, Ogooue-Ivindo, Ogooue-Lolo, Ogooue-Maritime, Woleu-Ntem. Gabon People Back to Top Gabon has a population (2001 estimate) of 1,221,175. The overall population density is 5 persons per sq km (12 per sq mi). Some 54 percent of the people live in urban areas. Much of the country’s interior is uninhabited. All of Gabon's 40 or so ethnic groups, except the few thousand Pygmies, speak Bantu languages and, on that basis, can be classified into 10 larger groups. The Myene group (including the Mpongwe and Orungu), though only a small part of the population today, has played an important role in the history of the country as a result of its location along the northern coasts. The Fang, who belong to the larger Ewondo or Pahouin group also found in southern Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea, account for one-third of the population; they live north of the Ogooué River. The largest groups south of the Ogooué are the Sira (including the Eshira and Punu), the Nzebi (Njabi), and the Mbete; these groups together form close to half the population. Less numerous peoples include the Benga and Seke (Sheke) in the far northwest, the Kota and Teke in the east, and the Vili along the far southern coast.

    Extractions: Vanco Energy Company's history has been marked by risk taking and, for the last thirty years, frontier international exploration. In the late 1960's, an unsuccessful leasehold on America's last great oil and gas frontier, Alaska's North Slope, along with the trend of declining reserves in the United States, led Van Dyke to focus on frontier international exploration in the early 1970's. In 1973, the purchase of a 25% interest in Tenneco's 1.2 million-acre licenses offshore The Netherlands led the company to a 23-year history of oil and gas discoveries in the Dutch North Sea. Among others, Van Dyke discovered the Rijn Field (P/15, 1982) and the Horizon Field (P/9, 1983). Given his firm belief in mobile production systems and the emerging deepwater potential worldwide, the timing was right for Van Dyke to lead his company in exploring offshore West Africa in 1996. After a regional study of the Lower Congo Basin, Vanco sought and received its first two licenses offshore Africa a year later: the Anton Marin Permit and the Astrid Marin Permit offshore Gabon. In 2001, the Vanco Gabon Group (TotalFinaElf, operator) drilled four wells on the Astrid Marin Permit. Although non-commercial, the wells were a technical success for drilling in deep water in a remote location. A world record water depth was set with the Judy 1 well, drilled in 2,791 meters water depth.

    Extractions: History of the membership The continent's position as a crossroads between the Americas, Europe and Asia also lays it open to transnational crimes such as traffic in weapons, illicit drug trafficking, illegal immigration, traffic in stolen motor vehicles and fraud, which can only be stopped by international co-operation. Seeking and locating the criminals involved poses problems relating to information exchange, international identification and arrests with a view to extradition. This is why Interpol-in accordance with Article 2 (1) of its Constitution-ensures the closest possible co-operation between the criminal police authorities of all member countries, including those in Africa. Crime is not associated with a particular region and is certainly not a problem for Africa alone. Ever since it was established, the International Criminal Police Organization - Interpol has been seen by countries all over the world as an institution whose principles and objectives correspond to universal aspirations for human rights, public safety and the fight against ordinary law crime.

    Extractions: Jump to: Introduction Facts for the Traveler When to Go Events ... Maps With a vast sprawl of virgin rainforests and teeming wildlife, Gabon is The Ghost Who Walks territory. Its major cities, however, are a sophisticated bustle of glitz, lights, and casinos. Gabon offers a little of everything to just about everyone. It's not high on the list of most travellers' itinerary because visas come tied in a mile of red tape and day-to-day expenses, especially in Libreville, are mind-blowingly expensive. But if you can overcome these drawbacks Gabon is worth a visit. The combination of Texan-tea money and French influence has unfortunately all but destroyed traditional Gabonese culture, but it's still worth passing through if you're taking the western coastal route north or south. Inland it's a different story; despite its wealth, Gabon's roads are not in the best of conditions and once you get off the main roads and railways, getting around is a hard slog.
