South African oil and gas explorer SacOil Holdings could pull out of a Nigerian asset agreement, after acquiring 20% of a prospective oil license and completing research for the site, reports say.

The company on Monday also said it could exit other assets as a result of the continued fall in global oil prices.

SacOil said in a statement it would also make a decision on whether to continue exploration on similar assets in Malawi, Mozambique and the Democratic Republic of Congo as the price of oil dips to six-year-lows on oversupply concerns.

The company has previously said it would focus on more cash generative assets.

SacOil reported a 23 percent decline in profit after tax in the six months to August due to higher operating costs.
