Energean bearing fruit in the Eastern Med


Energean has published a new CPR highlighting the conversion of 2C resources into 2P reserves at the Karish and Tanin fields. Net 2P reserves for the fields now stands at 298mmboe with 22tcf gas and 32mmbbl liquids (gross) being upgraded. The company’s net 2P reserves including its Greek fields are now at 349mmboe.

A further 0.2tcf gas and 1mmbbl liquids remain in contingent resources relating to the Karish B reservoir and will be upgraded upon successful well production testing.

Energean is now thinking beyond its flagship development project with the recent award of its exploration acreage offshore Israel (Blocks 12, 21-23 and 31). These are estimated to contain 7.5tcf gas and over 100mmbbl liquids prospective resources. This massively enlarges the company’s exploration portfolio beyond the 1.3tcf Karish North prospect being drilled in early 2019. The company has secured an extension on the drilling rig for further exploration drilling should it have matured targets over the next 12 to 18 months.

Double success for Energean – IPO and FID


Energean put the East Med on the map this week propelling the region into the headlines.

Energean debuted on the London Stock Exchange at the beginning of this week with its Initial Public Offering and USD460 million of new money putting the company’s market capitalisation at just under USD1 billion. The company’s flagship asset is its 70% stake in the Karish & Tanin gas fields offshore Israel which contain 2.4tcf of gas and 33mmboe of light hydrocarbon liquids. First gas is targeted for 2021. The company also has producing assets in Greece and an exploration portfolio throughout the Aegean region.

In the same week Energean reached Final Investment Decision on the Karish & Tanin development giving the green light to commence the USD1.6 biliion project. USD405 million from the IPO proceeds will be used to fund Energean’s 70% share of the project and partner Kerogen will fund its 30% stake. A USD1.275 billion bank facility will also be used to fund this ambitious project.

Energean has secured long-term gas agreements with some of the largest private power producers and industrial companies in Israel. To date it has contracted for the purchase of a total of 61bcm over a period of 16 years, at an annual rate of c.4.2bcm p.a..

The East Med has become a hot play for gas and Karish & Tanin follow in the footsteps of giant gas fields in the region including Leviathan, Zohr and Aphrodite. Energean is set to become an exciting story to follow as industry interest in the East Med grows and the demand for its gas becomes increasingly important being in the centre of short gas MENA countries and the doorstep of Europe.
