Namibia: TotalEnergies Increases Its Interests in Offshore Blocks 2913B and
2912
TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) has signed an agreement to
acquire from Impact Oil and Gas Namibia (Pty) Ltd (“Impact”) an additional
10.5% participating interest in block 2913B and an additional 9.39%
participating interest in block 2912, both operated by TotalEnergies in
Namibia. TotalEnergies’ intention is to share this additional participating
interest with its strategic partner and joint venture member QatarEnergy.
After completion of these transactions, which will be subject to customary
third-party approvals from the Namibian authorities and joint venture parties,
TotalEnergies would own a 45.25% interest in block 2913B containing the Venus
discovery, and a 42.5% interest in block 2912. Impact will retain a 9.5%
interest in each license.
As per this agreement, Impact will be reimbursed for the past costs incurred
for these interests, through a $99 million payment at closing. Impact will
also be carried for its remaining interests until Impact receives the first
sales proceeds from hydrocarbon production, secured via a repayment mechanism
based on Impact’s share of production.
“This transaction not only increases our share in the Venus discovery and
remaining prospectivity on these blocks, but also represents a key step toward
the development of Venus by consolidating the partnership and securing
financing of all partners which will add value to all stakeholders”, said
Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at TotalEnergies.
