Namibia's government said Tuesday it would soon accept more major oil companies into the country, a day after Shell announced it had bought two offshore blocks.

Petroleum commissioner Immanuel Mulunga told AFP the government was in the process of approving the arrival of two more, as yet unnamed international oil firms, amid the clamour to make the country's first major oil find.

Mulunga said the arrival of Shell would be a confidence boost for the sector and could act as a magnet for other international oil companies.
