Algeria: TotalEnergies Signed a New Production Sharing Contract with Sonatrach
in the Berkine Basin

 

TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) signed today with Sonatrach,
Occidental and Eni an extension of its Production Sharing Contract for a
period of 25 years for onshore Blocks 404a and 208 in the Berkine basin, in
Eastern Algeria.

This contract, signed under the new Algerian Hydrocarbon Law published in
2019, will allow to develop additional liquids hydrocarbon resources, while
reducing these fields carbon intensity through a dedicated carbon reduction
program. The opportunity to develop and valorize associated gas resources will
be studied by the partners, thus increasing export potential towards Europe.

“This new contract on Berkine asset, under the Algerian new Hydrocarbon Law,
marks a new milestone in the strategic partnership with Sonatrach. This
project is in line with the Company’s strategy to develop low-cost oil while
contributing to carbon reduction programs to minimize our carbon footprint”,
commented Laurent Vivier, Senior Vice President Middle East and North Africa,
Exploration & Production at TotalEnergies.
