Giant solar energy plant opens in France
The site took six months to be constructed, and features 40,000 solar panels

A giant solar energy plant with 40,000 solar panels has opened in southwest France, with the power to provide energy to almost 13,000 people.

The €12 million, 22-hectare Merle Sud centre is in the commune of Saint-Magne, Gironde (Nouvelle-Aquitaine), and took six months to be completed. It officially opened today (Friday October 25).

It is expected to produce 15,060 MWh per year, the equivalent of the energy use of 12,830 inhabitants in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region.

The project was first proposed in 2010, and the centre’s current form was decided upon after the State called for people to submit ideas in 2016.

It is also a partnership between regional fund Terra Energies, and Total Quadran.

Total Quadran is a subsidiary of energy company Total, and has become one of the major producers of renewable energy in France in the past few years.

The project was also partly crowdfunded by local citizens, with an online fund managing to raise more than €200,000 from 192 investors.

Total Quadran has also signed a deal with a local farmer based in the commune of Cestas, who will be permitted to allow his sheep to graze on the centre’s land to help maintain it.

Oil company faces legal action on human rights and environmental violations in Uganda
By agency reporter

Sign up to receive our daily email bulletin

Friends of the Earth France, Survie, AFIEGO, CRED, NAPE/Friends of the Earth Uganda and NAVODA are taking Total to court for its failure to elaborate and implement its human rights and environmental vigilance plan in Uganda. This is the first ever legal action of its kind – seeking emergency proceedings against Total for non-compliance with its legal obligations under the 2017 French duty of vigilance law, which aims to address corporate negligence.

Total is the main operator of a mega oil project in Lake Albert and Murchison Falls, a protected natural park in Uganda. Total plans to drill over 400 wells, extracting around 200,000 barrels of oil per day. A 1,445km long giant pipeline will be built to transport the oil, impacting communities and nature in Tanzania as well as Uganda.

France's new Duty of Vigilance law compels Total to meet its human rights obligations concerning this project. The judge will decide if the corporation should be forced, with potential financial penalties, to review its vigilance plan, acknowledging the true impact of its oil activities on local communities and the environment. The court may also order Total to undertake urgent measures in order to prevent further human rights violations or environmental damage.

In June 2019, the six NGOs presented the French fossil fuel giant with a formal demand to revise its vigilance plan and the implementation of that plan for the oil project in Uganda. Total rejected the charges after a three month legal deadline, allowing the complainants to take Total to court. The social and environmental impacts are so dire that they filed proceedings with the urgent applications judge.

In addition to denying the charges, Total has failed to change its behaviour on the ground in Uganda. Pressure on local communities, who are threatened with eviction, as well as on the NGOs supporting them, has increased. The impacts and risks flagged in this legal case are escalating daily.

Thomas Bart, a Survie activist who coordinated the on-site investigation explains, “Thousands of people are already acutely feeling the dire consequences of the oil project. It’s not only the people, whose homes and land have been stolen, but also the region's exceptional biodiversity that is under attack. Putting a giant pipeline through these ecosystems will endanger them in the immediate future. It's urgent that we put a stop to this. If we consider all the risks linked to the pipeline, we’re talking about tens of thousands of affected people.”

This is the first time that a French transnational corporation is being taken to court under the duty of vigilance law - a groundbreaking law for which French civil society spent many years fighting.

Juliette Renaud, corporate accountability senior campaigner for Friends of the Earth France, said: “In addition to the urgent need to put an end to this scandalous project, this unprecedented legal case is also a legitimate sign of recognition that transnational corporations have new and very concrete legal obligations under this law. Corporations can no longer hide behind 'good intentions'. We hope this legal action will mark a turning point, and the jurisprudence created could serve for many other cases. We will therefore defend the letter and the spirit of the law, which is a major step forward in fighting corporate impunity.”

This case is part of a growing global movement for justice. Last week at the United Nations, 90 governments and over 200 civil society organisations participated in ongoing negotiations for a new international binding treaty on transnational corporations and human rights. The French duty of vigilance law and case against Total in Uganda was presented as evidence at the UN, underlining the need to strengthen the jurisdiction of national courts and to create strong international implementation mechanisms, including an international court. Strong campaigns already exist to replicate this new French law in Switzerland, UK, Germany and at the European level, demanding Rights for People and Rules for Corporations.

Karin Nansen, Chair of Friends of the Earth International, added: “For too long large oil corporations like Total have acted with impunity, trampling over human rights and destroying the environment. But this new Duty of Vigilance law and court case means we have a chance to hold Total, a French transnational corporation, accountable in France for human rights violations and environmental and livelihood destruction in a Southern country. This case is a groundbreaking moment in the global movement to end corporate impunity.”

Ten of thousand people have already signed an online petition supporting the case, and the complainants are calling on the international community to join. Their voices will be heard in the Nanterre High Court, where a hearing is due to take place on 8 January 2020.

Total Petrochemicals & Refining USA on Wednesday reported the shutdown of equipment which led to above-normal gas emissions-flaring at its refinery in Port Arthur, Texas.

"An unanticipated shutdown of the recycle compressor at the Toluene Disproportionation Unit was initiated by an instrumented protective function," the refinery said in a statement to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. "This action resulted in elevated reactor bed temperatures, requiring a hydrogen sweep that led to elevated flaring."

It said the emissions of some 968 pounds of sulfur dioxide began Tuesday morning and ended Tuesday afternoon.

The 225,000-barrel-a-day Total Port Arthur refinery is 95 miles east of Houston.

World’s priciest oil auction may raise $50billion in Brazil
by Bloomberg
23/10/2019, 7:10 am

Exxon Mobil Corp., Royal Dutch Shell Plc and other energy giants are set to vie for deep-sea deposits that could hold 15 billion barrels of oil, almost twice as much as Norway’s reserves. Pic: A floating production vessel seen near Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

An auction next month of oilfields in Brazil may be the priciest ever held, raising at least $50 billion in licensing fees and compensation, according to people familiar with government estimates.

Exxon Mobil Corp., Royal Dutch Shell Plc and other energy giants are set to vie for deep-sea deposits that could hold 15 billion barrels of oil, almost twice as much as Norway’s reserves. Winners at the Nov. 6 auction are expected to pay $25 billion in licensing fees, plus share a portion of their production with the government.

In addition, bidders will need to negotiate payments to state-controlled Petroleo Brasileiro SA for investments it has already made in the area. Those payments could add another $25 billion to $45 billion in costs, according to officials familiar with government figures who asked not to be named because the information is private.

The auction is unique in part because one of the four areas being offered is already gushing more than half of the daily output from Venezuela. It’s a rare opportunity for an industry more accustomed to exploring riskier offshore prospects that can take a decade or more to develop.

Fourteen producers — including Petrobras — have signed up to participate in the auction.

Petrobras didn’t respond to requests for comment. The Brazilian oil regulator, known as ANP, declined to comment on the total amount the auction could raise. It said payments to Petrobras will be negotiated between the company and its partners, without government interference.

The offerings are at the heart of the pre-salt, a giant expanse of oil deposits about the size of Ohio trapped beneath a layer of salt under the Atlantic seabed. The four prospects — Buzios, Itapu, Sepia and Atapu — are estimated to hold as much as 15 billion barrels of recoverable crude, according to a study by Houston-based consultancy Gaffney, Cline & Associates.

Buzios is already Brazil’s second-largest field by production, with output of about 425,000 barrels a day — at a time when Venezuelan production is running at 700,000. It has four platforms that are tapping about a dozen wells, with room for other wells to be drilled and the current ones to be ramped up further.
Payment Terms

Brazil’s federal audit court estimates the compensation to Brazil’s oil company could ultimately reach $45 billion under initially proposed guidelines. It has recommended the government lower certain parameters like the estimated price of Brent crude to make the deals more attractive, according to the people familiar. The court’s estimates and recommendations for the sale are confidential. Valor newspaper said on Tuesday the revisions including the reference Brent price could lower the estimated top compensation number by at least $6.3 billion.

The Brazilian Petroleum Institute, an industry group that represents some of the bidders, estimates the payments to Petrobras will be worth between 120 billion and 130 billion reais ($29 billion-$31 billion). A study by Wood Mackenzie Ltd. released Monday estimates $24 billion.

The rules do not specify how the payments to Petrobras should be settled. A combination of cash, crude and investments over many years is a possibility. Licenses last for three decades. Winning bidders will have 18 months to reach an agreement with Petrobras before the oil regulator is required to step in as mediator.

As for the licensing payments, the largest chunk of the $25 billion will be due this year and the remainder in 2020, all in cash.

A 2009 auction of development rights for Iraqi oil included larger reserves, but was done using different methodology under which companies were bidding for the right to service the oil fields and get paid per barrel by the government.

BP and Shell: 'We've got the balance sheets for no-subsidy renewables'

Executives tell conference supermajors will be well placed in merchant world where incumbent developers to struggle

Oil supermajors Shell and BP said their huge balance sheets will help them become major renewable energy “players” as subsidies fall away and wind and solar plants rely on merchant power sales, leaving existing developers struggling.

The global move away from subsidies for large renewable energy projects plays to the strengths of new entrants from oil and gas with ambitions to enter the clean power sector, Shell new energies executive vice president Mark Gainsborough and Nick Wayth, chief development officer for Alternative Energy at BP, told an industry conference.

Gainsborough told a session at the BNEF Summit in London that his company will “have an even stronger role to play in a subsidy-free world”.

“In reality, as the market shifts more away from subsidies and revenue certainty, for sure there will be challenges. A lot of the existing developers will struggle in that world where you need a bigger balance sheet,” Gainsborough predicted.

Echoing his supermajor colleague, Wayth said: “The trend towards subsidy-free and more merchant generation is a dynamic that in our view plays to some of the capabilities a company like BP has – the balance sheet, the trading capability.”

Shell has been among the busiest of the big oil groups in entering renewables and associated sectors, with stakes in offshore wind projects, the purchase of German battery group Sonnen and investments in several cutting-edge technologies.

BP’s renewable expansion has so far mainly focused on its LightSource BP joint venture, but the UK-based oil group has a US onshore wind fleet and is heavily tipped to enter the offshore wind sector soon.

Both supermajors made clear their intention to be “players” in the new energy world.

Gainsborough said: “It’s kind of inevitable that the large existing energy players are going to want to play in the new spaces. Either that or in the very long run we’ll all have to shut up shop, and we’ve got no intention of doing that.”

Oil supermajor Total to enter UK offshore wind


Wayth rejected any suggestion that the renewable energy sector is now closed to new entrants. “Everybody’s got the right to play in this space,” he said.

Global power groups have until now featured heavily in renewable energy development, with the likes of Enel, Iberdrola, EDP and RWE leading the charge, along with transformed oil and gas group Orsted in offshore wind.

But the world’s oil giants are already making their presence felt – notably with Norwegian group Equinor emerging as a big winner in the recent UK contract-for-difference round for offshore wind projects that saw record-low prices, and French group Total and Italy's Eni vowing to enter new contests for offshore wind leases off Britain.

The French Oil company Total said it spent USD 2.5 billion on three new projects in 2018 to increase the production of more 100,000 barrels of oil per day in block 17 in the Angolan offshore.

This was said Thursday in Luanda by the deputy director general of the French oil company in Angola, Olivier Jouny, at the end of a meeting with the National Assembly’s Commission on Economy and Finance.

The official announced the company’s plan to re-launch next year oil exploration in ultra-deep waters of block 48 and in the development areas of block 17.

Accounted for 45 percent of Angola’s oil production, with 150,000 barrels per day, the oil firm will also focus on developing solar power in the southern region of the country.

Olivier Jouny said there is a potential for renewable energy in the provinces of Huambo and Namibe.

He added that the oil company is currently developing a solar project in areas not connected to the country’s electricity grid, in partnership with the Ministry of Energy and Water.

“We have identified a few available areas and we hope to get the deal done quickly,” said Total’s deputy general manager, without releasing any financial figures.

In terms of social responsibility, he said that Total is carrying out actions for youth in the areas of education and entrepreneurship, culture and support for the women’s handball team.

In the ??culture, Total, in partnership with the French Embassy in Angola and the Ministry of Culture, signed a memorandum in Luanda on preservation of the heritage of Mbanza Congo.

Meanwhile, the MP Joaquim David of the 5th commission said that the Parliament has passed legislation on marginal fields to maintain Angolan offshore production levels.

Total Angola is one of the most important subsidiaries of the French group, the 5th largest energy producer in the world, installed on five continents, with operations in over 130 countries and around 100,000 employees.

Conclusion

This year has witnessed a substantial amount of volatility in the price and fundamentals of crude oil. Despite the headlines, the underlying fundamentals of crude oil are remarkably bullish and vulnerable to upside risk. The market is seriously underpricing the risk of an uptick in demand - a single uptick of demand could lead to a strong rally in price.

Total has launched its first ship supplying Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) of very large capacity. This follows the signing of the long-term charter agreement between Total and Mitsui OSK Lines (MOL) in February 2018. After its delivery in 2020, the bunker ship will be positioned in Northern Europe where it will supply commercial vessels with LNG. the nine new mega container ships of CMA CGM ensuring the Europe-Asia link, at the rate of 300 000 t / year for at least 10 years.

The construction of this LNG bunker is in line with the decision of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to drastically limit the sulfur content in marine fuels by 2020. In this context, the transition of heavy fuel oil to LNG in the maritime transport appears to be the most effective and immediately available competitive solution.

PARIS (Agefi-Dow Jones) - The oil group Total announced Friday the creation of a "digital factory" at the beginning of 2020 in Paris.

This digital factory will bring together up to 300 developers, data scientists and other experts to accelerate the digital transformation of the group, said Total.

The oil group aims to generate via this site $ 1.5 billion per year of "value for the company" by 2025, in the form of additional revenue or savings.

This digital factory will in particular "develop the digital solutions that the group needs to improve its industrial operations both in terms of availability and cost" and "offer new services to its customers," detailed Total.
