EU DIRECTIVES

CONTRACTS PUBLISHED IN JULY 2015 BY ENMC

EU LEGISLATION


ASMAA


EU DIRECTIVE FOR OFFSHORE OIL AND GAS EXPLORATION


ASMAA


EU IMPLEMENTATION DEADLINES• 18 July 2013

Directive came into force

• 19 July 2015 Member States must bring into force the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with the Directive

TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS • 19 July 2016

Laws, regulations and administrative provisions are to be applied to owners and operators of planned production installations and operators planning or executing well operations

• 19 July 2018Member States are to apply the laws, regulations and administrative provisions to existing installations

WHAT DOES THE EU SAY?


ASMAA


OIL LICENSING• EU countries have to follow strict rules when issuing licenses for searching for,

drilling for and producing oil: the Hydrocarbons Licensing Directive (94/22/EC) ensures a competitive, non-discriminatory and transparent European market and improves the security of supply.

• Directive 94/22/EC of 30 May 1994 on the conditions for granting and using authorisations for the prospection, exploration and production of hydrocarbons

• National governments can determine the geographical areas for prospecting, exploring for and producing hydrocarbons.

• However, they have to follow a specific procedure when granting licences: an invitation for applications has to be published in the Official Journal of the EU at least 90 days before the closing date for applications. This notice should specify information such as the geographical area, the type of authorisation and selection criteria for applicants. All interested companies can submit applications.



ASMAA


TRANSPARENCY AND INFORMATION SHARING• Under the Directive, Member States must ensure that operators (or

owners) provide the relevant competent authority with the information described in Annex IX to the Directive.

• This includes information relating to any unintended release of oil or gas, any failure of a safety and environmental critical element, any fatal accident, any evacuation of personnel, helicopter accidents, etc. Member States are also required to make such information publicly available.



ASMAA


RECAP – EU WIDE SAFETY STANDARDS• before exploration or production begins, companies must prepare a Major Hazard

Report for their offshore installation. This report must contain a risk assessment and an emergency response plan.

• technical solutions which are critical for the safety of operators' installations must be independently verified. This must be done prior to the installation going into operation

• national authorities must verify safety provisions, environmental protection measures, and the emergency preparedness of rigs and platforms. If companies do not respect the minimum standards, EU countries can impose sanctions, including halting production

• information on how companies and EU countries keep installations safe must be made available for citizens

• companies will be fully liable for environmental damages caused to protected marine species and natural habitats. For damage to marine habitats, the geographical zone will cover all EU marine waters including exclusive economic zones and continental shelves.

Portugal não vai ganhar dinheiro com a exploração de petróleo (0.10c / 0.25c por barril)…

Antonio Costa Silva (Partex) responde:

“Portugal ainda NÃO provou que tem recursos.” Justificando assim que a posição negocial não pode ser comparável à dos grandes produtores de petróleo e gás africanos ou asiáticos.

Mas temos que perguntar …

Se não houvesse certezas a Repsol e a Partex ia arriscar a abertura de um primeiro poço?

FRACKING

WHAT IS WRONG WITH FRACKING?

FRACKING – ????

Hydraulic Fracturing is a how natural gas is extracted from shale rock hundreds of feet below ground.Because dangerous chemicals and explosions are used in the process, concerned citizens are demanding that safeguards are in place to protect ground and surface waters, air, land, and the health of humans and livestock.Currently, these safeguards are NOT in place, thanks to gas industry lobbyists in Europe.


ASMAA


Drilling for natural gas has changed

FRACKING – ????


ASMAA


Conventional method• Drill into porous rock• Gas comes out• Small footprint during and after

Hydro fracking method• Drill into solid rock• Pumps millions of gallons of

water & chemicals per well• Apply extreme pressure and

explosions to fracture rocks• Chemicals, heavy metals &

radioactive substances come up with gas

• This mixture can migrate underground

FRACKING – ALGARVE

FRACKING – TIPICAL SITE


ASMAA


WILL IT CAUSE EARTHQUAKES?

FRACKING – AREAS OF CONCERN


ASMAA


FRACKING – MINERAL RIGHTS


ASMAA


WILL IT AFFECT WATER SUPPLIES?


• Up to 16 wells per pad• 5.5 million gallons on average per well per frack.• Up to 1,600 truck trips per well

• Depletes fresh water sources• Billions of gallons of water contaminated forever• Citizens (local communities) bear the cost to repair

damages to country roadsEach well can be fracked several times = increased damage


ASMAA


IS OUR WATER SAFE?


The problem is that the injected water is mixed with a cocktail of chemicals and the process of pumping it below round releases gases such as methane as well as salts and metals.

In addition, much of the contaminated water used in the fracking process resurfaces, and is classed as hazardous waste that needs to be treated – an added potential pollutant.
