Maybe since your having so much trouble between find and discover you could use a different word. Maybe identify would work. Also grammar check your sentence. It probably should read :

It is estimated that we could identify about 400 Tscf CBM in **add specific counrty name** country. However, we will need investments and it can only be accelerated by participation of consumer countries in this region.

I just feel like the word this is being used too often.

This is a grey area of writing. Two words which mean the same thing; which to use?

I will usually sound it out in my head and see which one suits my fancy.

I prefer "Find" for your sentence, as discover tends to have a more archiological feel to it.
