Rosneft ups stake, takes over operatorship of Solimoes project

HOUSTON, July 15

07/15/2014

By OGJ editors

OAO Rosneft reported that the Brazilian government has approved a transaction that would give Rosneft an additional 6% in a joint venture in the Solimoes basin for $96 million. The transaction would give Rosneft 51% interest and operatorship in the JV.

Completion of the purchase from Brazilian independent HRT O&G is expected within 30 days of the July 9 approval by Brazil’s National Petroleum Agency (ANP).

The JV covers concession contracts BT-SOL-4 and BT-SOL-4A. HRT O&G will hold 49% interest (OGJ Online, Mar. 19, 2013).

Separately, Rosneft, HRT, and Petroleo Brasileiro SA (Petrobras) signed a memorandum of understanding to study “development schemes” for joint monetization of gas in the Solimoes basin.

The Future of US Refining

When Fri, Feb 6, 2015

Oil & Gas Journal’s Feb. 6, 2015, webcast will focus on the future of US refining as various forces this year conspire to pull the industry in different directions. Lower oil prices generally reduce feedstock costs, but they have also lowered refiners’ returns, as 2015 begins with refined products priced at lows not seen in years. If lower per-barrel crude prices dampen production of lighter crudes among shale plays, what will happen to refiners’ plans to export more barrels of lighter crudes? And as always, refiners will be affected by government regulations, particularly those that suppress demand, increase costs, or limit access to markets or supply.
