Petrom vrea s aloce anul viitor aproximativ 1 miliard de euro pentru investitii si ar putea intra n domeniul explorrii zcmintelor de gaze de sist, dac aceste activitti se vor dovedi fezabile, a declarat, luni, la Reuters Investment Summit, directorul general al companiei, Mariana Gheorghe.
„n acest an, vom investi undeva n jur de 1,1-1,2 miliarde euro. ncepnd de anul viitor, estimm investitii ntre 0,8 si 1,2 miliarde. Probabil vom depsi din nou 1 miliard de euro anul viitor”, a afirmat Mariana Gheorghe, citat de Reuters. Gheorghe a mai afirmat c Petrom dispune de trei ci principale de a compensa pentru declinul natural al rezervelor de hidrocarburi, inclusiv cresterea ratei de recuperare pentru resursele conventionale de petrol, extractia din Marea Neagr si gazele de sist. „Dup experienta Statelor Unite, consider c nicun operator responsabil din piat nu va refuza s ia n calcul acest nou teritoriu (…) Suntem ntr-o etap foarte preliminar”, a afirmat directorul general al Petrom, citat de Reuters. Compania s-ar putea extinde n zona gazelor de sist dup anul 2021. „Urmrim foarte atent toate evolutiile si avem n Romnia un pionier, pe Chevron. Undeva la finalul planului strategic actual, n jurul anului 2021, intentionm s analizm acest segment de piat”, a spus Gheorghe. ntrebat dac Petrom ar putea intra mai devreme dect este planificat n zona de explorare, prin preluarea de perimetre de gaze de sist, Gheorghe a afirmat: „Ne vom uita la toate licitatiile care vor fi lansate n urmtorii ani de ctre Agentia National de Resurse Minerale”. „Dac se va ncadra n strategia noastr, dac va fi fezabil ca business, adic dac vom dispune de resurse, astfel de oportunitti nu vor fi desconsiderate”, a continuat directorul general al Petrom, parte din grupul austriac OMV.
Daca ai gaze de sist, trebuie sa le scoti
Presedintele grupului austriac de petrol si gaze OMV, Gerhard Roiss, consider c Romnia trebuie s exploateze gazele de sist, dac prospec- tiunile geologice indic existenta unor rezerve semnificative, potrivit afirmatiilor fcute la finele anului trecut, la Bucuresti, de executivul austriac. „Dac ai gaze de sist, trebuie s le scoti”, a declarat atunci Roiss. Romnia se situeaz pe locul al treilea n Europa n functie de rezervele recuperabile de gaze de sist, dup Polonia si Franta. Rezervele Romniei sunt estimate la peste 1.400 miliarde de metri cubi, volum echivalent cu consumul national de gaze pe 100 de ani, reiese din datele Autorittii Nationale pentru Resurse Minerale (ANRM), preluate de la Administratia american pentru informatie n domeniul energiei EIA. Compania american Chevron a obtinut, n iulie, acordul de mediu pentru amplasarea sondelor de foraj si explorare a gazelor de sist n trei zone din judetul Vaslui. Chevron mai detine concesiuni si n Dobrogea. Chevron intentioneaz s nceap n a doua jumtate a acestui an forarea unui put de explorare a gazelor de sist n judetul Vaslui si va initia studii seismice pentru cele trei perimetre din judetul Constanta.
Panel Rules for Chevron in Ecuador Amazon Case
QUITO, Ecuador September 20, 2013 (AP)
By GONZALO SOLANO and FRANK BAJAK Associated Press
Plaintiffs’ hopes for collecting a $19 billion judgment awarded by an Ecuadorean court against Chevron Corp. for oil contamination in the Amazon have suffered another potential setback.
A three-judge international arbitration panel in The Hague has ruled that an agreement signed in 1995 by Texaco Corp., which Chevron later purchased, released the oil giant from financial responsibility from any claims of „collective damage.”
However, the interim ruling Tuesday by the Permanent Court of Arbitration left open the possibility that Chevron could still be liable for damages incurred by individuals.
Chevron has been fighting in multiple courts on three continents litigation that began two decades ago and led to the February 2011 judgment and award for contamination caused by a Texaco-led consortium in Ecuador’s Amazon rainforest between 1972 and 1990.
U.S.-based Chevron insists it was absolved of all responsibility for the pollution by the 1995 cleanup agreement. It is refusing to pay, and both sides in the legal battle have accused each other of fraud.
Chevron has no assets in Ecuador, so the plaintiffs have sought to force payment in Canada, Brazil and Argentina, so far without success.
Chevron’s general counsel, Hewitt Pate, said in a statement that Tuesday’s ruling „confirms that the fraudulent claims against Chevron should not have been brought in the first place,”
Ecuador’s foreign minister, Ricardo Patino, responded via Twitter that „Chevron continues its campaign of lies” by claiming that the Hague tribunal absolved it of responsibility when that simply was not the case.
What the tribunal left pending was the question of whether the successful lawsuit and record judgment against Chevron could be classified as having caused „personal harm” to individuals. It also did not rule on Chevron’s claims for monetary damages.
Chevron brought the case before the arbitration panel, which operates under U.N. auspices, in 2009 claiming Ecuador was in violation of a bilateral investment treaty with the United States.
President Rafael Correa this week launched a campaign seeking a global boycott on Chevron over its refusal to pay the judgment. He visited a jungle waste site, stuck his hand in oil and lifted it for the cameras.
His campaign is called „Chevron’s Dirty Hand.”
On Thursday, he was visiting Argentina and meeting with its president, Cristina Fernandez.
Argentina’s state energy company YPF has signed last month an agreement with Chevron to jointly develop the vast Vaca Muerta shale oil and natural gas reserves in southwestern Argentina. It committed $1.2 billion to the project.
Correa denied any friction with Fernandez over the deal.
He told reporters that had Fernandez „been president of Ecuador while Texaco was destroying Ecuadorean jungle, she never would have permitted it.”
The next arbitration hearing in The Hague, in January, will address Chevron’s claims that the judgment against it was fraudulently procured.
