A Major Gas Find Could Upend European Energy Markets

FN Media Group Presents Oilprice.com Market Commentary

LONDON, March 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — As Europe realizes the full risk of relying on foreign oil and gas, it could soon find relief coming from an unexpected source. That’s because, after years of leaning on cheap Russian gas, geopolitical shifts have changed the equation. Both the war in Ukraine and simple economics have forced the EU to pivot from strict green energy policies.  Companies mentioned in this release include: Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX), ExxonMobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM), ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP), Talos Energy Inc. (NYSE: TALO), Cheniere Energy, Inc. (NYSE: LNG).

The Wall Street Journal reports, ‘Europe cuts addiction to Russian oil.’  And The Washington Post announced recently, ‘Amid energy crisis, EU says gas can sometimes be ‘green.”

The message is clear: Europe is scrambling to diversify its energy sources and achieve true energy independence. 

For decades, prime targets for natural gas have gone completely overlooked.

That’s why one Canadian energy company, MCF Energy (MCF.V; MCFNF.QX), is on a mission to help secure Europe’s energy independence and explore these long-ignored assets.  And with the acquisition of a proven target in Germany, the landscape could shift dramatically in the coming months.

MCF Energy Targets Overlooked Natural Gas Reserves in Germany

MCF Energy announced several major new acquisitions in Germany. The company has secured  rights to four key assets to date. 

The company is specifically targeting their concession at Lech , which spans about 10 square kilometers in Bavaria. That’s because the property holds 3 wells already drilled decades ago, with two confirming discoveries of natural gas.

In the early 1980s, Mobil Oil began drilling in search of oil at the property and discovered a primary gas reservoir. At the time, testing showed a maximum flow rate of 24 million cubic feet per day (MMCFD) of natural gas with associated condensate.

Now, with 3D imaging and proprietary AI and machine learning technology, MCF Energy (MCF.V; MCFNF.QX), plans to pinpoint even more promising locations at the property.

Specifically, they’ll use this data to target more high-value prospects on their Lech East site, which adds another 100 square kilometers. Based on the imaging, the team has already keyed in on multiple locations, with potentially more to come once drilling commences in Q1.

By leveraging the millions of dollars that Mobil Oil spent on this 3D seismic imaging, MCF Energy could soon play a key role in helping wean Europe off its addiction to Russian gas.

Industry Trailblazers Primed to Capitalize on Europe’s Overlooked Potential

MCF Energy is led by CEO James Hill, a seasoned geologist with over 40 years of experience exploring and developing assets across North America and Europe. Among Mr. Hill’s long list of projects is one of the largest onshore oil fields ever found in Europe, at the Patos Marinza Oil Field in Albania where production was increased over 2000%. After a successful career, Hill had retired. But because of the size of the opportunity at hand, his retirement was short-lived.

With Russia’s invasion and the EU’s pivot to classify natural gas as ‘green energy’, Hill and his team are uniquely positioned to tap into Europe’s vast, overlooked oil and gas reserves.

In 2022, they began six months of due diligence, conducted on 20 assets. Since then, MCF Energy has acquired rights to Europe’s most high-priority and high-conviction locations.

That includes the four assets in Germany through the strategic acquisition of a private German company, Genexco. The move gives MCF Energy not just the proven assets drilled by Mobil decades ago. It also provides a team of experts with inside knowledge of both the terrain and how to navigate complex zoning and licensing processes in Europe.

With drilling set to commence this quarter at their Lech concession,  pipelines are located less than 2 km away to bring energy throughout Europe. That makes transportation significantly easier and more economical for MCF (MCF.V; MCFNF.QX) if they discover the volumes of natural gas that they expect, given the past results and 3D data.

A Trillion Cubic Feet of Natural Gas in Austria?

MCF Energy’s leadership has been vocal about their confidence in a major discovery in Germany due to Mobil’s past work there. But the company’s most exciting prospect could come from MCF Energy’s other recent acquisition in Austria.

The company recently acquired rights to the Welchau prospect near the Austrian Alps.It covers 100 square kilometers and includes a large anticline structure, a large bump similar to what’s found in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq or the Italian Apennines.

In the 1980s, an Austrian oil and gas company, OMV, drilled the Molln #1 on the side of this structure, 5 kilometers away from MCF Energy’s well location at Welchau and discovered the presence of gas and condensate.

LIVE DRILLING UPDATE: 03/11/2024 – MCF Energy has just confirmed an active petroleum system at the Welchau-1 well site. The well successfully reached a depth of 1155 metres on March 10 and drilling to the main target is underway with completion anticipated by month end. CEO of MCF Energy, James Hill, said, “The drilling results so far are very promising, and the indications of gas and heavier hydrocarbons are particularly encouraging for us.” Read the full release here

Gaffney and Cline’s analysis suggests that the property could produce up to 584 billion cubic feet of gas on a best-case level, with 10 million barrels of oil. But Hill believes that, if the seal is as good as it appears, that number could nearly double to the reported 1 TCF of gas and 18 million barrels of oil.

If MCF Energy (MCF.V; MCFNF.QX)  discovers anywhere near that volume of gas, especially just 18 kilometers from a national pipeline, it could be transformative for Europe’s energy crisis.

Other companies to keep an eye on:

Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX), a titan in the global energy market, demonstrates an unwavering commitment to leading the natural gas sector through significant investments in exploration, production, and distribution. Chevron’s strategic involvement in major LNG projects across Australia and Africa is a testament to its ambition to dominate this crucial energy sector.

In parallel, Chevron’s prowess in the oil sector remains foundational to its operations. The company boasts extensive reserves and a robust downstream presence, underpinned by a commitment to efficiency and sustainability.

Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM)‘s influence on the global energy stage is profound, with strategic investments in the natural gas sector positioning it as a leader in this rapidly evolving market. The company’s engagement in LNG projects and shale gas exploration highlights its commitment to meeting the world’s shifting energy consumption patterns.

Simultaneously, Exxon Mobil’s legacy in the oil sector continues to be a significant driver of its revenue, with global operations marked by an unyielding pursuit of operational excellence.

ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) has adeptly balanced its energy portfolio between natural gas and oil, reflecting a nuanced understanding of the world’s changing energy consumption trends. The company’s strategic investments in natural gas, particularly in North America and Asia, highlight its commitment to securing a leadership position in this increasingly important sector.

At the same time, ConocoPhillips’ commitment to oil exploration and production remains unwavering. The company’s operations, which span multiple continents, are a testament to its industry leadership and commitment to sustainable production methods.

Talos Energy Inc. (NYSE: TALO) marks its presence in the exploration and production sector with a focused approach on the United States Gulf of Mexico and offshore Mexico, showcasing its prowess in tapping into the significant oil and natural gas resources of these regions.

Talos Energy’s commitment to sustainability and reducing its environmental impact is central to its operations. The company’s involvement in carbon capture initiatives and its continuous exploration of technological advancements to minimize its ecological footprint reflect a forward-thinking approach to energy production.

Cheniere Energy, Inc. (NYSE: LNG) is a pioneering force in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) sector in the United States, boasting one of the country’s inaugural LNG export facilities. With a business model that covers the entire LNG value chain, Cheniere is strategically positioned to leverage the increasing global demand for natural gas, recognized as a pivotal cleaner energy source.

Cheniere’s efforts to enhance the environmental performance of its operations reflect a broader commitment to facilitating the transition to a lower-carbon future, aligning with global energy trends and consumer expectations for more sustainable energy solutions.

ADQ Appoints Modon as Master Developer for Ras El Hekma Megaproject in Egypt

Published

on

adq-appoints-modon-as-master-developer-for-ras-el-hekma-megaproject-in-egypt

In the presence of Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Abdel Fattah El-Sisi

  • The event marked the signing of several significant agreements aimed at driving the development of the new destination

ABU DHABI, UAE, Oct. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In the presence of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and His Excellency Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, President of the Arab Republic of Egypt, ADQ, an Abu Dhabi-based investment and holding company, appointed Modon Holding PSC as the master developer for the Ras El Hekma megaproject.

In addition to being master developer for the entire development spanning 170 million square metres, Modon Holding will undertake the responsibility of the developer role for the first phase of the envisaged city consisting of 50 million square metres.

The remaining 120 million square metres, which are part of the master plan presented by Modon Holding, will be developed in partnership with prominent developers from Egypt, the UAE, and the international community under the oversight of the recently established ADQ subsidiary Ras El Hekma Urban Development Project Company and Modon Holding.

This iconic project represents a major milestone for Modon Holding by significantly increasing its land under development outside the UAE. Ras El Hekma is located around 350 kilometres northwest of Cairo and envisioned as a fully functional, smart, sustainable, and inclusive urban community situated against the scenic coastline.

The project is expected to become a powerful economic engine, with cumulative investments anticipated to reach US$110 billion by 2045, an annual GDP contribution of around US$25 billion, and approximately 750,000 jobs to be created, both directly and indirectly.

Upon completion, the development will be home to two million people and feature more than 40 kilometres of green spines, set to make Ras El Hekma the greenest megaproject in the region.

As a result of Ras El Hekma’s location within a four-hour flight for over 400 million outbound tourists, the establishment of tourism infrastructure will be a priority during the first phases of the development, encompassing an international airport as well as high-speed rail connectivity. The masterplan also includes residential areas, office spaces, hospitality venues, retail, leisure, and recreation facilities.

Ras El Hekma will have an international marina and a special free zone. Additionally, Modon Holding will look to develop infrastructure to support a range of high-growth industries, including business services, financial services, light manufacturing, and technology.

His Excellency Jassem Mohamed Bu Ataba Al Zaabi, Chairman of Modon Holding, said, “Ras El Hekma is destined to become a regional crown jewel in a country already famed for its rich and diverse attractions. Modon Holding is proud to bring this 170-million-square-metre visionary megaproject to life, leveraging our expertise and innovative approach. With our partners, we are poised to transform Ras El Hekma into a dynamic economic powerhouse and a global model for urban development.”

His Excellency Mohamed Hassan Alsuwaidi, Managing Director and Group Chief Executive Officer of ADQ, said, “As a project of unprecedented scale and impact, Ras El Hekma will be a catalyst for the development of Egypt’s economy by offering opportunities for businesses and stimulate tourism. Modon Holding brings a wealth of expertise in master planning and will pioneer state-of-the-art, innovative solutions, creating a destination that will deliver long-term value for Egypt and its people.”

Bill O’Regan, Group CEO of Modon Holding, said, “The Ras El Hekma destination is one of the Group’s most significant investment and development projects outside the UAE. The project provides an incredible development pipeline, and Modon Holding looks forward to delivering a destination that will be an exceptional experience for visitors and residents alike.”

During the ceremony, Modon Holding PSC engaged with the initial major partners to join in the development of the Ras El Hekma megaproject on Egypt’s stunning Mediterranean coast.

Ras El Hekma is set to become a leading urban and tourist hub, boasting a wide array of attractions and amenities. Modon Holding aims to harness its large-scale development expertise, collaborating with local, regional, and global partners to bring this visionary destination masterplan to life.

These collaborative efforts, combined with a focus on diverse entertainment, sports, cultural events, and top-tier community management, will position Ras El Hekma as a premier Mediterranean destination.

While the immediate focus is on tourism and hospitality, Modon’s long-term vision for the 170-square-metre site also includes business services, financial services, light manufacturing, and technology.

Modon Engages First Batch of Investors and Partners in Landmark Ceremony

On 4th October, in a momentous ceremony attended by President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Egyptian President His Excellency Abdel Fattah El-Sisi, Modon proudly initiated the engagement of its first group of investors and partners.

The event marked the signing of several significant agreements aimed at driving the development of the new destination:

– A framework agreement with Orascom Construction, designating them as one of the primary contractors for the initial phase of the project.

– A memorandum of understanding with Elsewedy Electric to explore opportunities for supplying building materials and collaborating on industrial parks, manufacturing, operations, and maintenance.

These strategic partnerships underscore Modon’s commitment to creating a world-class destination, fostering innovation, and enhancing the quality of life for Ras El Hekma’s future residents.

His Excellency Jassem Mohamed Bu Ataba Al Zaabi, said, “Ras El Hekma represents a visionary and multifaceted endeavour that promises to make a substantial contribution to the Egyptian economy. Crafting a masterplan of such scale demands specialised expertise and capabilities across diverse industries, which can only be realised through robust strategic partnerships. We look forward to working with our partners present and future in harnessing the full potential of this extraordinary location.”
