RE: Latest info from SNDA from 28 May23 Jul 2024 16:12
Natarbora is a 3rd LNG site planned, again Chuditch could production could be utilised, its located on the central South Coast near the Betano Oil refinery and Betano Power Station (converting to gas) , Natarbora is not Beaco/Sunrise, it is a more recent addition to their plans.
Could be that is to cover Betano requirements, while Metinaro in the North Near Capital Dili to feed the two Northern Power stations gas/lng.
So no matter how the doom and gloom merchants want to view it, Chuditch is sat right next to an Island that has plans for not one , not two but THREE GAS/LNG facilities.
Still suspect Andy has a cracking announcement to make, with Chuditch HEAVILY involved in the action, why else would Timor Gap the Government owned and funded NOC, go from sitting on a FREE CARRY 25% , to now farm UP to 40% and start paying their way.........
Could have just sat on their hands and the FREE CARRY, if nothing happening soon. Everything they do is Gov budget funding and loans to be repaid on first decent revenues. Why fork out now, has to be something in the background.
Bookies favourite - Sunda and Chuditch with Island NOC TG, front and centre of their upcoming BRI Level 2 Infrastructure construction building per Chinese announcement and last years MOU between the TL Ministry of Strategic Planning and Infrastructure and the Chinese Ministry of Overseas Development.
TL Ministry main projects on the books all involve GAS
Beaco - Multi up to 5 string Gas/LNG EXPORTS facilities
Metinaro - Gas/LNG IMPORT terminal part of the P.I.T
Natarbora - Gas/LNG (Betano area)
More importantly, PM Rauk stated, when things come together we will use our resources for the benefit of all Timorses
(smells of our own Gas - Not external imports)
Chuditch will now be ready to flow production, LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG before Sunrise/Beaco sees the light of day, if it ever does............GLA
