Since the CPA signing, GOSS has
largely been encouraging everyone to invest in southern Sudan and
exploit the opportunities it has to offer. The main focus has been
and is the commercial and business sector. See related article:
The
South Sudan Annual Investment Conference
|
Investment
Policy and Regulation
The investment policy and regulation is South Sudan is based
on the Government of Southern Sudan (GOSS) implementation
of Investment
Act 2004.
To further assist those wishing to conduct business within
Southern Sudan, the Government of Southern Sudan has now clarified
the procedures as indicated below through UNJLC snapshots.
Oil
Industry
Total, through its subsidiary Total E&P
Sudan, signed an Exploration and Production Sharing Agreement
(EPSA) with the Government of Sudan on blocks in southeastern
Sudan in 1980 including block B, the main area for Total’s
exploration activity in Sudan alongside partners: |
Marathon Petroleum Sudan Ltd (32.5%, United
States)
Kufpec Sudan Ltd (25%, Kuwait)
State-owned Sudapet (10%)
However, security issues in the region caused the
suspension of exploration operations - Total were about to drill
3 oil wells - in 1985 with the agreement of the Sudanese government
under a Stoppage Period provision. From 1985 to 2004 the Government
of Sudan extended the Stoppage Period annually in which Total retained
all of its rights on block B and kept a minimal presence on site.
In late December 2004, Total and its partners signed
the Revised Exploration and Production Sharing Agreement with the
Sudanese authorities to update the 1980 contract and to take account
of new international industry standards, particularly in relation
to corporate social responsibility, and to establish the terms and
conditions for a resumption of operations in Sudan.
On 1 February 2005 Total E&P Sudan's representative
was appointed in Khartoum and later in July received from International
Crisis Group (ICG) an opinion on the Peace Agreements and on the
White Nile issue.
However in May 2006, in accordance with Total's request, the High
Court of London passed a judgement ordering White Nile to disclose
documentation evidencing its alleged rights on part of block B.
Petroliam Nasional Berhad (PETRONAS) is Malaysia's
national petroleum corporation incorporated in 1974 and wholly owned
by the Government. The corporation is vested with the entire oil
and gas resources in Malaysia and entrusted with the responsibility
of developing and adding value to these resources.
Petronas has major interests in Sudan’s oil fields that include:
Block 1, 2, & 4 (Exploration, Development and Production)
Block 3 & 7 (Exploration and Development)
Block 5A (Exploration and Development) and 5B (Exploration)
Block 8 (Exploration)
Block 15 (Exploration)
Crude oil production in Block 5A begun in June
2006 in Thar Jath field (54km2) which is located in Muglad Basin.
White Nile Operating Company Ltd currently operates the production
in partnership with Petronas, ONGC Videsh Ltd of India and Sudapet
of Sudan with expected initial production rate of 20,000 barrels
per day (BPD).
- Talisman
Energy Inc
An independent upstream oil and gas company with headquarters
in Calgary, Canada
Talisman Energy - a Canadian independent - that
included exploration assets in Sudan, formed Lundin Petroleum AB
in 2001 as a result of a takeover. Lundin Petroleum holds a 24.5%
interest in Block 5B that covers the southern part of the Muglad
basin and is on course to strike and begin crude oil production
as is being done in block 5A. Block 5B is a large block of 20,119
square kilometers and is located in the Sudd swamp. The effective
date of the Block 5B Exploration Production Sharing Agreement is
May 2, 2001 with a contract for up to 25 years with a 6 years exploration
phase. Petronas and Sudapet jointly operate this contract.
In April 2003 Lundin Petroleum sold its 40.375%
interest and operatorship in Block 5A to partner Petronas Carigali
Overseas for the sum of US$ 142.5 million.
During 2007, activities have been delayed due to
the slow implementation of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement which
required the setting up of institutions to deal with the oil issue.
This took place in 2007 when the National Petroleum Commission gave
its endorsement of WNPOC and its right to conduct operations in
Block 5B. Exploration drilling is expected to begin in Q1 2008.
On the ground operations began in earnest in 2006,
with some 440 km of seismic data being acquired, and continued into
the first half of 2007 as a further 600 km of data were recorded.
Parallel studies using this and older seismic led to the identification
of a series of relatively shallow structural closures analogous
to those successfully drilled in neighbouring Block 5A.
CNPC has been present in Sudan since 1996 and now
has oil and gas assets and interests in the country, while also
providing oilfield services.
CNPC's oil and gas businesses in Sudan mainly include
the projects of Block 1/2/4, Block 3/7, Block 6, Block 15, the Khartoum
Refinery, Khartoum Chemical I Co. Ltd. and the petrochemical trade,
covering oil and gas exploration, development, production, storage
and transportation, refining and chemicals and sales of refined
products.
On August 30, 2005, CNPC, Petronas, Nigerian Express,
Sudapet and the Hi-tech Group sign a production-sharing contract
with the Sudanese Government to explore and develop oil and gas
in Sudan's Block 15.
Located in the northeastern part of Sudan, Block 15 covers an area
of 24,377 square kilometers, most of which is located in the Red
Sea. Two small-scale gas discoveries existed in the contract block.
This contract was the Sudanese government's first offshore exploration
and development contract, and also the first gas exploration and
production sharing contract.
Sudan Block 1/2/4 is located in the Muglad basin,
700km southwest of Khartoum and covers an area of 49,000 square
kilometers. Exploration of the area started in the 1980s, yielding
180 million tons of proven oil in place and 69.74 million tons of
probable oil in place. CNPC won its bid for the block on December
2, 1996, and formed a joint operating group with the Sudan National
Petroleum Corporation (Sudapet), Petroliam Nasional Berhad (Petronas),
and Canadian STATE Petroleum Company. The block produced a total
of 11.04 million tons of crude in 2001, with daily production standing
at 32,900 tons as of the end of the year.
As a general contractor, CNPC has completed the
construction of a range of major projects, including oilfield surface
engineering of Block 1/24, Block 3/7 and Block 6, the 1,506-km long
pipeline between Heglig and Sudan Port, the 716-km long pipeline
between Block 6 and Khartoum Refinery, the viscosity- breaking unit
for Block 6, the phase I construction and phase II upgrade of Khartoum
Refinery and the polypropylene unit. The 1,506-km long pipeline
from Heglig to Port Sudan, with an annual crude delivery capacity
of 12.5 million tons, was completed within 11 months.
Established in February 1997
In June 18, 1997, Greater Nile Petroleum Operating
Company Limited (GNPOC) was incorporated to operate as a petroleum
company in Sudan. GNPOC is a joint operating company owned by:

ONGC of India (25%)
SUDAPET of Sudan (5%)
In 1998 to 1999 GNPOC installed oil production
and processing facilities for 5 oil fields in the Muglad Basin of
South Sudan. More than 15,000 KM pipeline was also constructed from
the fields to Bashair terminal in the Red Sea. Production was estimated
at 150,000 bpd and could grow to 300,000 bpd over the medium term.
First shipment was transported in the pipeline in June 1999. Parts
of crude oil are distributed to the El Obied refinery and the Khartoum
Refinery for domestic consumption. The remaining oil is exported.
Currently GNPOC produces more than 300,000 barrels of oil per day.
In January 2005, PetroSA and Sudapet signed a study agreement with
OEPA for Block 14, northern Sudan. This agreement took effect on
1 February 2005 and consists of a first phase of six months with
an optional second phase of a further nine months.
Block 14 is situated in the southern part of the
Sahara desert in a very arid region where only sand with some rock
outcrops occur. This block is a frontier exploration area with limited
knowledge of the geology.
