Impact Oil & Gas Limited(“Impact”或“公司”)是一家私营的、专注于非洲的勘探公司,该公司高兴地宣布,在收到纳米比亚政府的所有相关监管批准和合资伙伴的同意后,该公司已完成将其在纳米比亚近海 2912 和 2913B 区块(“区块”)的权益转让给 TotalEnergies EP Namibia BV,并收到了相关现金支付 9900 万美元。

正如之前于 2024 年 1 月 10 日宣布的那样,Impact 通过其全资子公司 Impact Oil and Gas Namibia (Pty) Ltd 与 TotalEnergies SE 的全资子公司 TotalEnergies EP Namibia BV 签署了一项转让协议,以出售 2912 区块 9.39% 的未分割参与权益和 2913B 区块 10.5% 的未分割参与权益(“转让交易”)。

此次交易完成后,Impact 持有 2912 和 2913B 区块各 9.5% 的权益。Impact

首席执行官 Siraj Ahmed 评论道:
“我们很高兴获得纳米比亚政府批准将我们的资产转让出去,并期待继续我们的征程,在纳米比亚开采第一批石油。这对公司来说是一项转型交易,确保了 Impact 未来参与这一激动人心的计划。此外,通过此次交易,Impact 获得了资金支持,有机会参与区块的进一步重大勘探,从最近开钻的 Tamboti-1X 井开始。”


“我们期待继续与 NAMCOR、TotalEnergies 和 QatarEnergy 保持长期合作伙伴关系,并感谢 TotalEnergies 团队的持续合作。”

运营更新
继 2022 年 Venus-1X 发现井之后,迄今为止,这两个区块上又钻了四口勘探和评估井。在钻探的五口井中,有四口成功穿透并测试了 Venus 油田。因此,第一个开发区的规划正在推进中,预计开发方案将于 2025 年底完成。 2024 年

,完成了两个额外的 3D 地震采集计划,以促进对合并区块南部和北部的进一步勘探。这使得大多数许可区域现在都被 3D 地震覆盖。这些数据目前正在处理和解释中,将有助于进一步评估区块最北部和最南部的前景和线索。

2024 年 10 月 20 日,DeepSea Mira 钻探 Tamboti-1X 井,目标是在 2913B 区块北部寻找大量额外资源。除了 Tambotti-1X 之外,区块南部还有许多勘探区,这些勘探区目前正在通过最近的 3D 地震数据进行成熟,为后续潜在的高影响力勘探井创造了机会。

关于 2913B 区块,纳米比亚海上
石油勘探许可证 56,2913B 区块位于纳米比亚南部近海,覆盖面积约 8,215 平方千米,水深在 2,450 米至 3,250 米之间。Impact 于 2014 年作为运营商进入许可证,获取了 2D 和 3D 地震数据,确定了 Venus 勘探区。 2017 年,道达尔能源公司 (TotalEnergies) 加入 Impact 和 NAMCOR,为合资企业带来了重要的深水钻井专业知识,2019 年卡塔尔能源公司 (QatarEnergy) 加入了合资企业。

关于 2912 区块,纳米比亚海上
石油勘探许可证 91,2912 区块位于纳米比亚南部近海,毗邻 PEL 56,但在其外侧,覆盖面积约为 7,884 平方千米,水深在 3,000 至 3,950 米之间。2019 年,Impact 与卡塔尔能源公司一起加入了道达尔能源公司和 NAMCOR 的许可证。

Impact completes the farm out of its interests in Blocks 2912 & 2913B to TotalEnergies

Source: www.gulfoilandgas.com 11/1/2024, Location: Africa

Impact Oil & Gas Limited (“Impact” or the “Company”), a privately-owned, Africa-focused, exploration company is pleased to announce that following receipt of all the relevant regulatory approvals from the Government of Namibia and joint venture partner consents, the Company has completed the farm out of its interests in Blocks 2912 and 2913B offshore Namibia (“Blocks”) to TotalEnergies EP Namibia B.V. and received the associated cash payment of USD99 million.

As previously announced on 10 January 2024, Impact, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Impact Oil and Gas Namibia (Pty) Ltd, signed a farm out agreement with TotalEnergies EP Namibia B.V., a wholly-owned subsidiary of TotalEnergies S.E., for the sale of a 9.39% undivided participating interest in Block 2912, and a 10.5% undivided participating interest in Block 2913B (“Farm Out Transaction”).

The Farm Out Transaction provides Impact with a carry loan for all of its remaining development, appraisal and exploration costs on the Blocks from 1st January, 2024 (“Effective Date”), until the date on which Impact receives the first sales proceeds from oil production on the Blocks (“First Oil Date”). The carry loan is repayable from a share of Impact’s after-tax cash flows, and net of all joint venture costs, including capital expenditures, from production on the Blocks. In addition, on completion of the Farm Out Transaction, Impact received approximately USD99 million from TotalEnergies, as reimbursement for its share of costs incurred on the Blocks net to the farm out interests, prior to the Effective Date of the transaction.


Following completion of this transaction, Impact holds a 9.5% interest in each of Blocks 2912 and 2913B.

Siraj Ahmed, Chief Executive Officer of Impact, commented:
“We are pleased to have received approval from the Government of Namibia for our farm-out and look forward to continuing our journey towards first oil in Namibia. This is a transformational transaction for the Company, securing Impact’s future participation in this exciting play. Additionally, this transaction, through the carry, gives Impact a funded exposure to further significant exploration opportunities in the Blocks, starting with the recently spud Tamboti-1X well.


“We look forward to continuing our longstanding partnership with NAMCOR, TotalEnergies and QatarEnergy, and would like to thank the TotalEnergies team for their ongoing collaboration.”

OPERATIONAL UPDATE
Following the 2022 Venus-1X discovery well, four further exploration and appraisal wells have been drilled on the two blocks to date. Of the five wells drilled, four have, successfully penetrated and tested the Venus field. As a result, planning is progressing for the first development area, with a development scheme expected to be finalised by the end of 2025.

During 2024, two additional 3D seismic acquisition programmes were completed to facilitate further exploration over the southern and northern parts of the combined blocks. This has resulted in most of the licenced area now being covered by 3D seismic. This data is currently being processed and interpreted and will help further evaluate prospects and leads in the far northern and southern parts of the blocks.

On 20 October 2024, the DeepSea Mira spud the Tamboti-1X well, targeting significant additional resource in the north of Block 2913B. Beyond Tambotti-1X, there are a number of prospects in the southern part of the Blocks that are currently being matured by the recent 3D-seimic data and create an opportunity for follow-on potential high impact exploration wells.

About Block 2913B, offshore Namibia
Petroleum Exploration Licence 56, Block 2913B, is located offshore southern Namibia and covers approximately 8,215km² in water depths between 2,450m and 3,250m. Impact entered the licence as Operator in 2014, acquiring 2D, then 3D seismic data which defined the Venus prospect. In 2017, Impact and NAMCOR were joined by TotalEnergies, bringing with it significant deep-water drilling expertise to the Joint Venture, and in 2019 QatarEnergy joined the Joint Venture.

About Block 2912, offshore Namibia
Petroleum Exploration Licence 91, Block 2912, is located offshore southern Namibia, adjacent to, but outboard of, PEL 56 and covers approximately 7,884km² in water depths between 3,000 and 3,950m. Impact joined TotalEnergies and NAMCOR on the licence in 2019, as did QatarEnergy.
