专注于非洲的过渡能源集团 Chariot Limited (AIM: CHAR) 欣然宣布,该公司已与 Vivo Energy 签署了一份条款框架协议,内容涉及未来从摩洛哥 Loukos 陆上许可区(“oukos”)开采天然气(Chariot,运营商,75%,ONHYM,25%)。该协议旨在制定实施天然气工业业务的后续步骤,一方面,实现国内天然气的商业化,另一方面,建立中游压缩天然气(“NG”)合作伙伴关系,以满足摩洛哥日益增长的工业能源需求。Chariot

是 Loukos 的运营商,最近完成了许可区内的首次钻探活动,目前正在计划在 OBA-1 井进行流动测试作业。Loukos 拥有现有未开发天然气发现中的更多天然气资源和富有吸引力的勘探组合,这些资源共同提供了额外的生产潜力。目前正在整合钻探活动收集的数据以及最近重新处理的二维和三维地震数据,以更新对这一资源潜力的认识。


Vivo Energy 是一家市场领先的泛非洲优质燃料和润滑油零售商和分销商,在摩洛哥石油产品领域拥有长期业务。通过 Vivo Energy Maroc,该公司运营着一个由 400 多个服务站组成的网络,为该国多个行业的商业和工业客户提供服务。

协议的主要条款:
- Chariot 打算根据一项长期天然气销售协议,从 Loukos 未来可能生产的天然气中向中游 CNG 业务出售高达 300 万标准立方英尺/天的初始量;
- 此外,Vivo Energy 打算设计、资助、建造和运营一个 CNG 工厂和虚拟分销网络,以将来自多个来源的天然气输送到摩洛哥现有和新的工业客户;以及
- 最后,该中游 CNG 业务将通过特殊目的公司(“PV”)运营,Chariot 可以参与其中最多 49% 的权益


双方现在将寻求推进天然气承购、中游和其他相关协议。虽然不能保证这些协议将变成完整的文件,但双方正在推进下一阶段的工作,并将根据需要提供进一步的更新。Chariot

Morocco 董事总经理 Pierre Raillard 表示:
“我们很高兴将与 Vivo Energy 的合作扩展到陆上,这对我们双方都有利,旨在进一步开发摩洛哥的天然气网络。该协议为我们指明了一条道路,我们可以期待快速实现 Loukos 未来生产的商业化,有可能解锁现有天然气发现以及 OBA-1 井的开发,并通过未来的勘探实现有机增长。这将与我们的上游合作伙伴 ONHYM 协调进行,最初重点关注现有市场。它还将利用我们的天然气产量来支持 Vivo 更广泛地开发 CNG 虚拟管道基础设施,并且作为潜在中游合作伙伴关系的一部分,Chariot 不仅可以直接接触 Loukos 的销售,还可以从更广泛的来源获得该国的天然气分销收入。”Vivo Energy Maroc 董事总经理

Matthias de Larminat 评论道:“天然气是旨在实现摩洛哥脱碳的能源方程式的关键组成部分,正如国王陛下所定义的那样。该项目完全符合这一雄心壮志,并满足了摩洛哥工业利益相关者表达的需求。”

Chariot Limited & Vivo Energy signed Gas Commercialization Agreement in Morocco

Source: www.gulfoilandgas.com 6/24/2024, Location: Africa

Chariot Limited (AIM: CHAR), the Africa-focused transitional energy group, is pleased to announce it has signed a Heads of Terms agreement with Vivo Energy regarding future natural gas offtake from the Loukos Onshore licence (“Loukos”) in Morocco (Chariot, Operator 75%, ONHYM, 25%). The aim of the agreement is to set out the next steps for implementing a gas to industry business through, on one side, commercialisation of domestic gas and, on the other, the creation of a midstream compressed natural gas (“CNG”) partnership to supply Morocco’s growing industrial energy needs.

Chariot is Operator of Loukos and having recently completed its first drilling campaign on the licence is now planning flow test operations at the OBA-1 well. Loukos contains further gas resources in existing undeveloped gas discoveries and an attractive exploration portfolio which together offer additional production potential. Data gathered from the drilling campaign and recently reprocessed 2D and 3D seismic are now being integrated to update the understanding of this resource potential.


Vivo Energy, is a market-leading, pan-African retailer and distributor of high-quality fuels and lubricants with a long-standing presence in Morocco’s petroleum products’ sector. Through Vivo Energy Maroc, it operates a network of over 400 service stations, supplying commercial and industrial customers across a number of sectors in the Kingdom.

Key terms of the Agreement:
- Chariot intends to sell initial volumes of up to 3 mmscfd to the midstream CNG business under a long-term gas sales agreement from potential future production from Loukos;
- Additionally, Vivo Energy intends to design, fund, construct and operate a CNG plant and virtual distribution network to transport natural gas from a number of sources, to existing and new industrial customers in Morocco; and
- Finally, this midstream CNG business would be operated through a special purpose vehicle (“SPV”) in which Chariot can participate in up to a 49% interest


The parties will now look to advance the gas offtake, midstream and other related agreements. Whilst there is no guarantee that this will be turned into fully termed documentation, the parties are progressing with this next stage and further updates will be provided as required.

Pierre Raillard, Chariot Morocco Managing Director commented,
“We are delighted to extend our collaboration with Vivo Energy into the onshore, which benefits both of us as partners and aims to instigate further development of Morocco’s gas network. This agreement sets out a path where we can look to rapidly commercialise future production from Loukos, potentially unlocking the development of pre-existing gas discoveries as well as the OBA-1 well and enabling organic growth through future exploration. This will be undertaken in coordination with our upstream partner ONHYM with an initial focus on the existing markets. It will also leverage our gas production to support Vivo’s wider development of CNG virtual pipeline infrastructure and, as part of a potential midstream partnership, Chariot could have direct exposure to not only Loukos sales but also gas distribution income in country from a wider pool of sources.”

Matthias de Larminat, Vivo Energy Maroc Managing Director, commented, "Natural gas is a key component of the energy equation aimed at decarbonising Morocco, as defined by His Majesty the King. This project fully aligns with this ambition and meets the needs expressed by Moroccan industrial stakeholders."
