TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE), along with its
partners, has signed an Exploration and Production Sharing
Agreement (EPSA) with the Ministry of Energy and Minerals (MEM) of
the Sultanate of Oman in the onshore Block 11. The first stage of
the EPSA activities will see seismic acquisition in late 2022, with
a first exploration well planned to be drilled in 2023.
TotalEnergies will hold a 22.5% interest in the block, OQ 10%
and Shell with 67.5% will be the operator. Block 11 contains
undeveloped discoveries and exploration potential.
"Our recent activities in Oman are a demonstration of
TotalEnergies' strategy of transformation into a multi-energy
company. Today's entry into the Block 11 gives us the opportunity
to unlock additional potential to meet domestic and export gas
demand. It strengthens our strategic relationship with the
Sultanate of Oman, as illustrated last December by our entry into
the neighbouring Block 10 gas concession, and the start of
construction last July of 17-megawatt-peak solar photovoltaic
systems providing power to a desalination plant", said Laurent
Vivier, Senior Vice President Middle East and North Africa,
Exploration and Production, at TotalEnergies.
H.E. Eng. Salim bin Nasser Al Aufi, Minister of Energy and
Minerals in Oman said: "There is a continuous focus in MEM on
enhancing the natural gas reserves of the Sultanate of Oman through
exploration and appraisal activities undertaken by several
companies in the country. This agreement strengthens the strategic
relations with partners in the sector such as Shell, TotalEnergies,
OQ and others to ensure Oman's energy security and attract more
foreign investment, adding the highest value to the local supply
chain."
