All twelve leases are around 25 square kilometres each. Award of these blocks is subject to final approval by the Minerals Management Service. This acquisition follows the acquisition of twenty blocks last year in the same areas of the Gulf of Mexico. It is in accordance with the company's strategy to strengthen its portfolio in the Gulf of Mexico on focusing exploration efforts on prospects with high long-term potential. Total E&P in the United StatesTotal has been present in exploration and production in the United States since 1957 and produced 15,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in equity share in 2006.

Total sold its interest at the beginning of 2007 in the Camden Hills and Acacongua fields, as well as in the Canyon Express pipeline, wishing by these cessions to concentrate on exploration with high long-term potential.

19/10/2007 10:30 | Print Date : Thursday, October 18, 2007 Total, Shell urged to finalize share price contracts by June '08 TEHRAN (PIN) Pars Oil and Gas Co. (POGC) managing director reiterated that Iran was determining to take optimal use of domestic potentials, setting the June 2008 deadline for France's Total and Royal Dutch Shell to finalize contracts on development of South Pars (SP) field. Ali Vakili made the statement in a news conference, urging the French giant Total to make final investment decision (FID) on share price Phase 11 by the date. He warned that the deadline would not be extended and scores of companies were on standby as they had voiced their willingness to develop Phase 11 of South Pars field. The POGC head also underlined that Shell had to finalize the contract on development of share price phases 13-14 within the period. Petroleum Ministry's caretaker warned if the contract of Pars LNG project were not finalized with Total, Iran would implement the project by itself. Gholamhossein Nozari said the Pars LNG contract had not been yet finalized as Iran had not accepted the French company's FID, however adding Total had not voiced its unwillingness to make investment in the project. "Total, in its proposed FID, has announced that it will invest some 11.2 billion dollars in Phase 11 and Iran has dismissed the amount as unacceptable," said the top official. He ruled out the news that Total had reached an impasse in Iran's Pars LNG project. "Total is keen to implement the project," said the acting oil minister, adding Iran had proposed the French giant to divide the project into smaller packages in a bid to slash costs. Nozari, however, reiterated that Iran would not wait for any country for the implementation of domestic projects. Manager of Total Christophe de Margerie said the giant energy group would press on with talks on Pars LNG, Iran's first liquefied natural gas export terminal, a project which requires a $15 billion investment, adding Total would look at the political situation only once a deal is ready. As global demand for oil and gas rises, consumer countries cannot afford to blacklist producing countries on geopolitical grounds, the head of Total, which is present in Iran and Myanmar, said. Vakili said there was no limitation for Russia's presence in South Pars (SP) projects, Mehr News Agency (MNA) reported. If the Iranian party and Gazprom reached an agreement, the Russian company would develop share price phases 2-3, he added. He noted that no country even the U.S faced restraint in developing the field. "None of the foreign companies has pulled out of projects," the official said | waldron | |

15/10/2007 14:17 | Total 3rd-Quarter Refining Profit Fell on Crude Gains (Update1) By Tom Cahill and Nidaa Bakhsh Oct. 15 (Bloomberg) -- Total SA, Europe's largest oil refiner, said profit from converting crude oil into gasoline, diesel and other products fell in the third quarter because of rising costs for the raw material. Refining margins in the quarter fell 17 percent to $23.90 a ton from $28.70 a year earlier, Paris-based Total said today in a statement posted on its Web site. Margins were 44 percent below the second quarter. Some oil refiners in northwestern Europe have reduced operating rates at their facilities because of the decline in margins from the second quarter. Preem Petroleum AB was forced to cut processing on Sept. 13 at its 115,000 barrel-a-day refinery in Gothenburg, Sweden, after margins fell to the lowest since July. BP Plc, Europe's second-largest oil company, saw its global refining margin slump in the third quarter to $8.05 a barrel, less than half its second quarter rate, according to data on the company's Web site. In northwestern Europe, margins fell to $3.82 a barrel, from $7.12 in the second quarter, BP said. Margins may decline further as refineries come back on line after planned maintenance, according to a Merrill Lynch & Co. report on Oct. 10. ``As capacity utilization improves through the end of October, we anticipate refining margins to ease further; especially given the seasonal pullback in transportation fuel demand commonly observed at this time of the year,'' Merrill analysts including Hootan Yazhari said in the report. Brent crude prices rose 7.5 percent to $74.70 a barrel in the quarter, from $69.50 a year earlier, Total said, while its average price for oil liquids rose 9.2 percent to $71.40. Natural gas prices fell 14 percent to $4.83 per million British thermal units, from a year earlier, Total said. Valero Energy Corp., the largest U.S. refiner, on Oct. 10 had a bigger decline in third-quarter earnings than analysts estimated as rising crude-oil costs and production disruptions narrowed profit margins on fuel sales.

"A group of companies and ourselves signed the production sharing agreement concerning Kashagan, the largest deposit discovered over recent years, for the period of 40 years. No problems have occurred over the past decade." Italy's Eni and other consortium members are currently in talks with their Kazakh partners over the original agreement. Prodi said the Italian government can enter, when necessary, into the talks between Eni and Kazakh authorities on the contract to develop the Kashagan oil field. "There is a negotiation underway. The technicians are working. When it will be necessary we can intervene," Prodi said in Astana, as Radiocor reported. "For now, there is useful cooperation to which we willingly give space. It is clear the timing and conditions are in the hands of the Kazakhs," he said. alfred.kueppers@thom amk/vlb | ariane | |
07/10/2007 17:04 | Total Iran says oilfields 'too attractive' for France to quit TEHRAN (Thomson Financial) - Iran yesterday rejected the possibility of a French investors' pullout of its oil and gas sector amid calls by Paris for tougher sanctions on Tehran over its nuclear programme, the ISNA news agency reported. "Iran's resources and market are too attractive for the French to give up," deputy oil minister Gholam Hossein Nozari said. He was commenting on whether French oil and gas companies have been prevented from participating in Iranian projects. France has called for European sanctions against Iran for its refusal to suspend uranium enrichment, which could be used to make atomic weapons. It wants European companies not to bid for new business in Iran and for financial institutions to scale back investments, in a drive to pressure Tehran parallel to UN Security Council sanctions. Under a deal last year, French oil giant Total is set to exploit phase 11 of Iran's South Pars gas field to produce liquefied natural gas (LNG) for export and to build a liquefaction plant, but the deal is held up by a dispute over prices. Nozari said, "We have not been informed of any official position regarding a withdrawal by Phase 11 LNG buyers." tf.TFN-Europe_newsde afp/vlb | ariane | |
06/10/2007 09:39 | Total defies West pressures over Iran Sat, 06 Oct 2007 06:05:10 Christophe de Margerie, Chief Executive of Total The US cannot unilaterally decide for Total whether to invest in Iran, says Christophe de Margerie, Chief Executive of the company. The US, but not France, is exerting pressures on Total to stop investment in Iran, he said. De Margerie stressed that the company's future would be bleak if it let other countries decide for its investment plans. He referred to the company's defiance against pressures exerted by the Anglo-Saxon countries to leave Libya as an example of company's independence. The official urged politicians to act wisely, because "it is impossible to keep oil prices low while forcing oil producing countries to turn off their oil taps to the world's markets." He emphasized that Iran has friendly ties with France. | ariane | |

28/9/2007 15:09 | Total French stance over Iran could hit economic ties - Ahmadinejad LONDON (Thomson Financial) - Iranian President Mahmud Ahmadinejad has warned that France's hardening stance regarding Teheran's nuclear drive could hit economic relations between the two countries, state radio has reported. "We are not very much in favour of continuing economic ties at this level with them (France)," Ahmadinejad said during a visit to Latin America. He said Tehran's political relationship with France did not correspond with the economic one. "They say many things on the political level but they want to make the maximum profit on the economic level," he added. France is one of the Iran's main trading partners in the European Union, with French companies like Total, Peugeot and Renault prominent in the country. French President Nicolas Sarkozy has recently backed tougher measures on Iran if Teheran fails to suspend its nuclear programme. The French presidency said yesterday it did not believe Ahmadinejad's claims that his country's nuclear activities are peaceful. "Ultimately, we do not believe him. Everyone knows that the programme has military goals," spokesman David Martinon told a press conference. Sarkozy told the UN General Assembly the same day that allowing Iran to arm itself with nuclear weapons would be "an unacceptable risk to the stability of the region and the world". His foreign minister, Bernard Kouchner, recently suggested the West should brace for war with Iran over its nuclear drive, before apologizing to his Iranian counterpart on Tuesday, blaming media misrepresentation of his remarks, Iran's state news agency IRNA reported. Iran rejects Western charges that it is trying to build atomic weapons under the guise of its civilian nuclear programme and insists it is entitled to pursue uranium enrichment as a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty. tf.TFN-Europe_newsde afp/bsd | ariane | |
27/9/2007 09:27 | Total confirms it has not invested in Myanmar for past 10 years PARIS (Thomson Financial) - Total has confirmed that it has not invested in Myanmar for around 10 years, following calls from President Nicolas Sarkozy for companies to freeze investments in the country following its suppression of demonstrations. After a meeting with prime minister in exile Dr Sein Win, Sarkozy called for the adoption "without delay" of sanctions against Myanmar. Total has had a presence in Myanmar since 1992 on the Yadana gas field, where it produced 17.4 mln cubic metres of gas per day in 2006 to fuel power plants in Thailand. "Total has not invested in Myanmar for around 10 years," a spokeswoman said. It invested massively in the Yadana project around 12 years ago, but it has not planned any investments since," she said. A subsidiary of the group maintains a presence in the country, employing around 270 people to keep the Yadana project going, she added. helen.beresford@thom afp/hem/slm | ariane | |
24/9/2007 07:50 | EDF, Total stake in Areva fuel division among French govt scenarios PARIS (Thomson Financial) - The French government is considering the entry of EDF and Total into the fuel division of Areva as one of the scenarios for the reorganisation of the state-owned nuclear power group, La Tribune reported, without indicating its sources. The daily also cited EDF CEO Pierre Gadonneix as saying that, "like in the gas sector, we want to strengthen our position upstream by acquiring stakes in new mines alongside major groups like Areva or BHP Billiton." "We will need to secure (fuel) contracts to cover our needs until 2050-60," he said, noting that EDF's current contracts have secured its fuel supply for a little under 20 years. Total, meanwhile, is preparing to seriously study the question of nuclear fuel, La Tribune said, without giving any details. The oil company has previously said it is exploring other energy sources, including renewable and nuclear sources. The French government confirmed earlier this month that it is conducting a review of the energy sector following press reports it is looking at options for reorganising Areva, notably a three-way tie-up between Areva, Alstom and Bouygues. Les Echos also reported at the time that the government review could provide a role for EDF and Total. tfn.paris@thomson.co gt/rfw | ariane |
