Where we live

We live in the Noble Energy compound which is located at Malabo Dos on Bioko Island. 

The compound was constructed by Cororasa G.E. 
The Spanish parent company of Cororasa G.E. has
 it's headquarters on the Canary Island of Fuerteventura. 

The construction started mid 2010 and was completed in June 2013.

 The Noble Energy compound was officially opened on 6th June 2013 
by the President of Equatorial Guinea - Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo.



The compound consists of the 5 story tower, houses, gymnasium, 
tennis, racketball and basketball courts, 
outdoor swimming pool, bar/recreation and bbq areas.

  2. Hi. My family is considering a move here with Nobel. I'd love your insight to what it's like to live here. We have two small children. Schools and safety would be most important concerns for me.

  3. Hello, we are thinking of moving to Malabo and I would like to know more about schooling. The employer is new to Equatorial Guinea and therefore has no special arrangements for schooling. Our children are 5 and 7 years old. They speak French and English. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
