The government is leveraging its position as world’s fastest growing economy and one of the world’s biggest energy consumers to secure sweetened energy deals globally by renegotiating gas contracts, signing long term crude deals at discounted prices and buying oil equity.
Petronet LNG Limited, India’s largest gas importer would have at least saved $8 billion or Rs 50,000 crore over the life of the contract at current oil prices by re-negotiating a gas deal with Qatar’s RasGas, translating to annual savings of $600 million.
India’s growing geopolitical influence globally and tumbling oil prices and a global gas glut are compelling exporters to offer better deals to retain their share in the global energy trade, benefiting Indian energy firms.
As a friendly gesture, Ras Gas has also waived a penalty of $1.5 billion to PLL for not lifting committed amount of gas under the ‘take or pay’ clause.
Similarly, OVL, the international arm of state-owned energy major ONGC has bought 15 per cent stake in Russia’s second largest oil field Vencor for $1.27 billion at one-third of the prices of the OVL-Imperial deal a few years back.
Some 80 per cent of Iran’s oil contracts with Europe are operational, Iran’s oil export chief said on Saturday according to the ministry’s news agency SHANA, adding Tehran was continuing talks with major European oil companies to sell more.
Asked about Iran’s oil contracts to sell 600,000 to 800,000 barrels per day to the European buyers, Mohsen Ghamsari, the director for international affairs at the National Iranian Oil Company, said: “80 per cent of them are operational.”
Last week, Royal Dutch Shell resumed purchases of Iranian crude, becoming the second major oil firm after Total to restart trade with Tehran after the lifting of sanctions, trading sources said and ship tracking data showed.
Iran has been trying to claw back its market share since international sanctions were lifted in January and regaining a major buyer such as Shell will further aid its cause.
美国石油学会石油与工业运营部主任Erik Milito今天在电话中告诉记者，环境得益于水力压裂。他说“水力压裂使得我们开辟了我们的道路，那就是降低了温室气体排放，减少了关键污染物，减少了对进口能源的依赖，也降低了汽油价格。1999年，美国能源部在一份题为《EnvironmentalBenefits of advanced Oil and Gas Exploration and Production Technology》报告中就认为水力压裂是先进的技术，能够为环境带来益处。一年前的时候，美国环境保护署（EPA）花费数百万美元历时5年完成的报告确认，水力压裂是安全的，这对州与联邦法规的实行、目前业界实践都都是有益的。（Worldoil，6月8日消息)
能源巨头BP和周四宣布在埃及海上取得重大天然气发现。在埃及海上尼罗河三脚架常规水域的Baltim South许可区块内BaltimSouth West勘探有利区带取得重大天然气发现。发现井为Baltim South West 1X井，距海岸12km，水深25米，在2015年7月发现的Nooros油田以北10km。Nooros油田在5月份就达到了日产6.5万桶油当量，预计到2016年底可以达到12万桶油当量/天。该井钻遇120米厚总含气层，其中极好储层米辛尼亚期（Messinian）砂岩净厚62米。该发现初步估算有地质储量700～800亿立方米，进一步证实了“GreatNooros Area”的巨大潜力。Eni将同时进行评价与开发工作，还将继续勘探“Great Nooros Area”，钻探另外两口井。Eni持有Baltim South许可区块50%权益，BP持有另外50%权益。Eni去年在埃及地中海取得了Zohr气田的重大发现。Eni自1954年就在埃及从事油气勘探开发，到2015年权益产量达到20万桶/天。（Eni网站，6月9日消息）
Det norske oljeselskap已同意与BP Norge (BP Norway)合并，双方合并后的新公司将成为Norwegian Continental Shelf(NCS)上一家独立的勘探生产（E&P）公司。

Det norske oljeselskap has agreed to merge with BP Norge (BP Norway) through a share purchase transaction to create the independent E&P company on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS).
The company will be renamed Aker BP with Aker and BP as main industrial shareholders. The new E&P company will be independently operated and listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange.
Aker is the main shareholder in Det norske with a 49.99 per cent ownership, held through its wholly-owned subsidiary Aker Capital. Aker BP will be jointly owned by Aker (40 per cent), BP (30 per cent) and other Det norske shareholders (30 per cent).
As part of the transaction, Det norske will issue 135.1 million shares based on NOK 80 per share to BP as compensation for all shares in BP Norge, including assets, a tax loss carry forward of $267 million (nominal after-tax value) and a net cash position of $178 million.
In parallel, Aker will acquire 33.8 million of these shares from BP at the same share price to achieve the agreed-upon ownership structure.
The completion of the transaction, which is expected by the end of 2016, is subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory review and approval by Det norske shareholders.
According to BP, all of BP Norge’s roughly 850 employees will transfer to the combined organization upon completion of the deal.bp det norske
“We take great pride in the fact that BP has chosen to partner with Aker in transforming Det norske into a leading independent offshore E&P company,” said Aker’s Chairman Kjell Inge Røkke.
“With this transaction, we provide Det norske with operational strength, a robust capital structure and two solid industrial owners, thereby creating a platform for further growth on the NCS and near-term capacity to pay out quarterly dividend.”
Aker said that the transaction will strengthen Det norske’s balance sheet and is credit accretive through a 35 per cent reduction in net interest-bearing debt per barrel of oil equivalent of reserves. Aker BP aims to introduce a quarterly dividend policy. The first dividend payment is planned for the fourth quarter of 2016, conditional upon the approval of creditors.
“We have been in close dialogue with Folketrygdfondet, Det norske’s second-largest shareholder, which supports the transactions,” said Aker’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Det norske’s Chairman, Øyvind Eriksen.
The effective date of the transaction is January 1, 2016 and expected closing is in the third quarter 2016, subject to approval by the relevant authorities. The collaboration between BP and Aker spans several decades, and the two companies have previously explored the opportunity to create a large independent E&P company. Aker established Aker Exploration in 2006, which has grown through subsequent mergers and acquisitions, including Det norske and Marathon Oil Norway.
“Years of close collaboration between BP and Aker have now resulted in a new milestone for Det norske,” said Eriksen.
“In combining Det norske and BP Norway we will accelerate our strategy for Det norske to become a champion on the NCS in terms of lowest cost of production and highest profitability per barrel. We believe the transaction will yield significant value for both Det norske, BP and Aker’s shareholders.”
New E&P company to hold 97 licenses
Aker BP will hold a portfolio of 97 licenses on the Norwegian Continental Shelf, of which 46 are operated. The combined company will hold an estimated 723 million barrels of oil equivalent P50 reserves, with a 2015 joint production of approximately 122,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. Det norske had a net average production of 60,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2015.
Bob Dudley, Group Chief Executive of BP, said: “BP and Aker have matured a close collaboration through decades, and we are pleased to take advantage of the industrial expertise of both companies to create a large independent E&P company. The Norwegian Continental Shelf represents a significant opportunity going forward and we are looking forward to working together with Aker to unlock the long-term value of the company through growth and efficient operations.
“This innovative deal demonstrates how we can adapt our business model with strong and talented partners to remain competitive and grow where we see long- term benefit for our shareholders.”
Øyvind Eriksen will remain Chairman of the Board of Directors and Karl Johnny Hersvik Chief Executive Officer of the combined company.

STAVANGER, Norway -- Statoil Petroleum, operator of production license 272, has completed the drilling of wildcat well 30/11-13. The well proved gas/condensate.
The well was drilled 8 km southeast of the 30/11-8 S (Krafla) discovery and about 27 km south of the Oseberg South facility in the North Sea.
The primary exploration target for the well was to prove petroleum in Middle Jurassic reservoir rocks (the Tarbert formation). The secondary exploration target was to prove petroleum in Middle Jurassic reservoir rocks (the Ness formation).
The well encountered gas columns at two levels in the top part of the Tarbert formation, a total of 5 m and 31 m, respectively, of which 4 m and 22 m had good to moderate reservoir properties. The secondary exploration target in the Ness formation is aquiferous.
The preliminary estimation of the size of the discovery is between one and three million standard cubic meters of recoverable oil equivalents. The discovery will be included in the evaluation of a new field development along with previous discoveries in the area.
Well 30/11-13 was drilled to a vertical depth of 3,313 m below the sea surface and was terminated in the Ness formation. Water depth at the site is 106 m.

CAIRO, Egypt -- Eni and BP Egypt have made another important gas discovery in the Baltim South Development lease in the East Nile Delta.
The Baltim SW-1 exploration well, drilled in a water depth of 25 m by operator IEOC (Eni), reached a total depth of 3,750 m and penetrated approximately 62 m of net gas pay in high quality Messinian sandstones.
The discovery, which is 12 km from the shoreline, is a new accumulation along the same trend of Nooros field, which was discovered in July 2015 and is currently producing 65,000 boed. Further appraisal activities will be required to underpin the full resource potential of the discovery, BP said in a statement. However, according to Eni, the new discovery confirms the significant potential of the so-called "Great Nooros Area," which, the company says, is now estimated to hold 70-80 Bcm of gas in place.
“We are pleased with the results of the Baltim SW-1 well as it is the third discovery along the Nooros trend and confirms the great potential of the Messinian play and its significant upside in the area,” Hesham Mekawi, regional president of BP North Africa, said. “Our plan is to utilize existing infrastructure which will accelerate the development of the discovery, and expedite early production start-up.”
BP holds a 50% stake in the Baltim South Development lease, and Eni, through its subsidiary IEOC, holds 50%. The well was drilled by Petrobel, a joint venture between IEOC and the state partner Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation (EGPC).

日本贸易巨头Mitsui与AWE联合竞购Origin Energy旗下价值2亿美元的Perth Basin资产。Origin计划在8月份完成拍卖，两家公司成为了此次拍卖活动中的佼佼者。
据传言，Warro气田所有者Transerv公司欲出价2亿至2.45亿美元竞购这项资产。虽然，Mitsui和AWE的出价较低，但是两家公司拥有强大的财政实力，并且在Perth Basin有着丰富的开发经验。因此，Mitsui和AWE的胜算较大。石油圈原创www.oilsns.com

Japanese trading giant Mitsui has teamed with AWE to bid up to $200 million forOrigin Energy’s Perth Basin assets. Industry sources say the consortium is the frontrunner in an auction Origin is thought to want finalised by August.
Although their bid is not as high as the rumoured $200 million to $245 million offer submitted by Warro gas field co-owner Transerv, Mitsui and AWE’s financial muscle and history in the Perth Basin are expected to put them in pole position.
Private equity-backed Quadrant Energy is understood to have submitted a low-ball offer, leaving WA’s second-biggest domestic gas producer virtually no chance of adding to its Pilbara-focused operations.
The jewel in Origin’s Perth Basin portfolio is a half-stake in the Waitsia gas field, near Dongara, that is operated by the other 50 per cent owner, AWE. AWE on Friday upgraded Waitsia’s proven and probable reserves by 93 per cent to 344 billion cubic feet. The broader contingent resource, when adding the related Senecio, Irwin and Synaphea fields, rose to 867bcf.
None of the players involved would comment yesterday.
Mitsui’s emergence as a Perth Basin entrant comes just weeks before the Japanese giant is expected to sanction the Woodside Petroleum-run $2 billion Greater Enfield oil development, in which it has a 40 per cent stake. Mitsui is also an investor in the Woodside-run North West Shelf and Browse LNG assets.
Origin managing director Grant King, speaking alongside the APPEA conference in Brisbane yesterday, confirmed the auction was under way but would not comment on specifics. Origin, operator of one of the three Gladstone coal-seam gas LNG players, wants to dispose of the non-core Perth Basin part of its east coast-centric portfolio.
It is in direct contrast to AWE, which has sold out of the US and is targeting the Perth Basin. However, it comes at a time when AWE itself is the target of a hostile takeover bid from US private equity group Lone Star.
