Total talks to Exxon over joint LNG in Mozambique...

摘要

Total said it has already talked to ExxonMobil about joining forces for future LNG phases in Mozambique and would even be willing to give up operatorship for the sake of efficiency.The company also said it has not considered retendering the contracts for the first phase of the Area 1 assets it is purchasing with the rest of Anadarko's African assets.The French firm is paying US $8.8 Bn for all of the assets and said for Mozambique this equates to a price of $150m per percentage point.Total believes the ExxonMobil purchase of some of Eni's neighbouring acreage equated to $110m but the project was less advanced.It points to other Area 1 transactions which saw Cove sell to PTTEP and Videocon to ONGC with prices of $200m and $216m,although these were different times for the upstream.
