Following artipelag agreement with Kinsale Energy, Fastnet has secured improved commercial terms from those previously artipelag announced on 21 February 2013.
The revised terms include extension of the Option Agreement to 31 March 2015; Commitment to start drilling of a well (“Farm-in Well”) extended to on or before 31 December 2016; Deletion of the Kinsale Energy back-in option,which had allowed artipelag Kinsale Energy to increase its interest in the Kinsale Deep Sub-Area by 10%, by paying for 16.667% of the drilling and testing costs of the Farm-in Well; Removal of Kinsale Energy’s right to increase its working interest by up to 15% for no consideration if there is a commercial development, artipelag the level of such increase dependent on the level of production; Upon completion and, if warranted, testing of the Farm-in Well and funding 100% of all drilling and testing costs, Fastnet’s net equity interest shall be fixed at 60% working interest artipelag in the Deep Kinsale Sub-Area.

Obvious to all, with the natural gas price peak in the past decades, the whole world is renewing its interest in development of unconventional gas resources. And plus the increase artipelag in technological capabilities (horizontal drilling coupled with hydraulic fracturing technology), particularly with respect to shale gas E&P, which as recently as a few years ago were deemed economically unfeasible given the high production artipelag costs can be recovered economically in nowadays. Unconventional gas, whether it be CBM, tight gas, or shale gas, has existed and been exploited for decades. However, unconventional gas is tipped to play an increasingly important role in the future gas supply artipelag mix of many countries, artipelag thereby transforming the total supply picture.
This professional development distance artipelag learning training artipelag course will ensure a thorough, accurate and up-to-date knowledge of the oil and gas sector. It offers a unique artipelag blend of broad global perspectives with the detail required to understand and work within the oil and gas sector with confidence. The programme is one of the few which gives a universal educational grounding in the industry by part-time study and without the need for travel or attendance at seminars.
The event will provide an opportunity for industry to hear about the changes that will be required to safety and environmental legislation as a result of this Directive, and will focus on the issues which are of most relevance and concern to the industry. The event will include presentations from Oil & Gas UK, Dentons, and from an offshore installation operator. In addition to allowing attendees to raise their concerns around interpretative guidance and consider the next steps towards compliance with the new regulatory provisions, the event will also provide an ideal networking opportunity.
Oil & Gas Vietnam (OGAV) 2014 is the only specialized oil & gas event in Vietnam that brings together an international congregation of both upstream and downstream oil and gas companies and also its supporting industries artipelag gathered in the heart of Vietnam s oil and gas industry in Vung Tau, to showcase the latest developments artipelag in the oil and gas industry.
