Also some reading about electricitymarket in Australia.
“This report brings readers up-to-date with happening in the Australian generation industry since the previous posts: Australian Renewables Integration: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3. While many were optimistic about Australia’s planned changes, we were concerned that technical problems would emerge and that the costs of the transition will also make the power significantly more expensive for a less reliable supply.”

“Best reporting what Turkey wants to resume Kurd #Oil export via Ceyhan.
Won't pay $1.5b damages, wants Kurd to pay Baghdad.
Contracts to help build out of power plant & other infra
Iraq/Kurd resolve their % oil splits.
Exports could resume quickly.
Reminder shouldn't be big hit to Oil markets ASSUMING Iraq keeps complying with #OPEC quota.”

Empire energy
• C-3H was re-opened on 3 August 2023 for extended production testing following a five-month shut-in for soaking
• Empire expects testing to continue for up to 90 days
• Empire has recommenced flow testing at C-3H to extend its understanding of the production characteristics of the Velkerri Formation to refine its early production type curve analysis and continue building the knowledge base regarding optimal fracture stimulation design
• Empire continues working towards the Carpentaria Pilot Project final investment decision this year
Comments from Managing Director Alex Underwood:
"The Empire team is excited to recommence flow testing at C-3H, the longest horizontal well drilled in the Beetaloo Basin to date and the largest fracture stimulation carried out in Australian history. The results of renewed flow testing from this well will continue to build Empire’s technical knowledge base as we progress rapidly towards a final investment decision for the pilot project. Subject to FID, this would make Empire the first company to commercially extract gas from the Beetaloo Basin.
With all regulatory settings now in place to allow a commencement of production, current market forces require more gas supply into the Northern Territory and adjacent markets as existing sources of supply decline. This provides a timely opportunity for Empire to fulfill gas demand, providing jobs, royalties for the NT Government and traditional owners, and energy security domestically.
Empire’s conservative approach to capital management has ensured that the company is well capitalised to progress through its 2023 work programs. The C-3H flow testing and the work to progress to FID on the pilot project will be funded from existing cash at bank.
We look forward to sharing the new C-3H results with shareholders soon.”

Stop in oil exports from #Iraq to #Turkey is something that originates entirely in a problem between Iraq's central administration and Kurdish administration. Our position is already to open the oil pipelines the moment they overcome it - Turkish President Erdogan

“The most powerful on-shore drilling rig in Australia is believed to be on its way to the Beetaloo Basin despite protests in Darwin.
A woman locked herself to a gate outside the city's port on Friday in a bid to stop Tamboran Resources moving the rig to the drill site.”

“China will drive global gas demand this decade, says EIU 🇨🇳📈
📈 China's gas needs will rise 40% through 2030, while other developing countries will also use more gas to replace coal
👀 EIU's gas demand outlook is more bullish than other forecasts, like the IEA”

Agree WW. Tamboran has a vision to become a big gas/lng exporter. Riddle is doing a good pr job. See slide 20 (different phases development).
Listened to the webcast. Riddle was talking about new focus of development plan. New area. Slide 19. Interesting for the value of Falcon.
“Regional analysis post-acquisition and evaluation of EP 161 flow tests validates Tamboran’s plan on targeting deeper ‘core’ regions of the Beetaloo.
− Delineating LNG-scale resource of 17 TCF (gross) 2C contingent gas resources1.
− Close to ~100 TJ per day Amadeus Gas Pipeline and in alignment with midstream pipeline partner.
− Key regulatory approvals in place to deliver SS1H and A3H drilling. SN1V subject to standard regulatory and JV approvals.”
“ The North Sea Oil and Gas windfall tax has been an absolute disaster for Chancellor Hunt.
First he deterred badly needed investment in energy.
Now his taxes are fading away too.“

Beetaloo Basin gas explorer Tamboran Resources was making the most out of its freshly minted offtake agreements with giants Shell and BP, putting a $70 million raising to investors on Monday morning.

“The International Roundtable titled “The Benefits of Natural Gas for the Population and the Economy” was held today in Johannesburg (South Africa). The event took place under the auspices of the African Energy Chamber with support from Gazprom.“
“ “Considering that the Government of the Republic of South Africa pursues the economy decarbonization policy, gas can become an effective solution to satisfy the demand for energy, as renewable energy sources cannot provide uninterrupted energy supplies. Therefore, I believe that Gazprom’s experience in natural gas liquefaction and gas pipeline construction projects can be of interest to our South African partners,” said Ilya Rogachev.
“Wider use of natural gas will help Africa solve a number of problems, from economic to social and environmental ones. We are confident that it is essential for Africa to discover all the advantages brought about by this type of fuel. We see potential in cooperation with African countries and we can offer them our unique expertise and our experience in technology. Gazprom is open to discuss constructive and mutually beneficial proposals which could facilitate economic development and improve the lives of people in African countries,” said Dmitry Khandoga.
“More than 600 million people in sub-Saharan Africa do not have electricity. And 900 million people, most of them women, do not have access to clean cooking technologies – these technologies are either absent or there is a lack of them. Even if we look at this single problem alone, we see that it makes sense to use the rich gas resources of the continent. As Africa needs industrialization, the use of affordable and abundant natural gas will encourage the creation of a significant number of jobs, as well as possibilities for the strengthening of potential, economic diversification and growth,” said NJ Ayuk.”
