TotalEnergies extends partnership with Oman LNG
TotalEnergies has signed an amendment to extend its partnership with Oman LNG, an Omani liquefied natural gas (LNG) joint venture in which the company holds a 5.54% stake, it said on Thursday.
Located on the northeast coast of Oman, the Oman LNG liquefaction complex comprises two liquefaction trains, each with a capacity of 3.8 million metric tons of LNG per year (Mtpa). It is adjacent to the Qalhat LNG project, comprising one 3.8 Mtpa train, and in which Oman LNG holds a stake. This brings the site’s total production to 11.4 Mtpa, TotalEnergies said.
Through this agreement, TotalEnergies is extending beyond 2024 its interest in Oman LNG, by ten years, and in Qalhat LNG, by five years. The parties agreed to finance investments to reduce the plant’s GHG emissions during this extension. In January 2023, TotalEnergies had also signed an agreement with Oman LNG to offtake 0.8 Mtpa of LNG for ten years from 2025, making the Company one of the main offtaker of Oman LNG's production, the company said.
“We are pleased to extend our partnership with Oman LNG. This LNG contributes to our supply of Europe and Asian markets, and strengthens our integrated and flexible global portfolio, in line with TotalEnergies’ ambition to increase its LNG production and long-term purchases by 50% by 2030,” said Julien Pouget, Senior Vice President Middle East & North Africa, Exploration & Production at TotalEnergies.
Majority-owned by the Sultanate of Oman, the other shareholders of Oman LNG include Shell (30%), TotalEnergies (5.54%), Korea LNG (5%), and PTTEP (2%).
