The Philippines is dependent on other countries for its oil supply but the Department of Energy (DOE) conducts seismic data checks continuously to find potential oil extraction areas in the country.
The DOE’s latest prospect is the Bentham Rise located in Isabela, which was added to the Philippine territory in 2012. (PNA)
