Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE)
(LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE), visited the Cabo Delgado province of
Mozambique today to review the security and humanitarian situation.
He visited the Afungi industrial site, the resettlement village of
Quitunda, the towns of Palma and Mocimboa da Praia and met with
President Filipe Nyusi to discuss the security and humanitarian
situation in Cabo Delgado province, where the Mozambique LNG
project is located.
During this visit, Patrick Pouyanné said he has entrusted
Jean-Christophe Rufin, a recognized expert in humanitarian action
and human rights, with an independent mission to assess the
humanitarian situation in Cabo Delgado province. This mission will
also evaluate the actions taken by Mozambique LNG and will propose
any additional actions to be implemented, if required. The report
of this mission will be delivered at the end of February and its
conclusions will be shared with all Mozambique LNG's partners, who
shall decide whether the conditions are met for resuming project
activities.
On April 26, 2021, considering the evolution of the security
situation in the north of Cabo Delgado province, Mozambique LNG had
decided to withdraw all project personnel from the Afungi site.
This situation also led the Mozambique LNG project partners to
declare force majeure.
“Since 2021, the situation in Cabo Delgado province has improved
significantly, thanks in particular to the support provided by the
African countries that committed themselves to restore peace and
security, said Patrick Pouyanné, CEO of TotalEnergies. The
lifting of the force majeure and the resumption of activities at
the Mozambique LNG project site require, in particular the
restoration of security in the region, the resumption of public
services and the return to normal life for the people of the
region. The mission entrusted to Jean-Christophe Rufin should
enable Mozambique LNG's partners to assess whether the current
situation allows for a resumption of activities while respecting
human rights.”
Mozambique LNG is the first onshore development of a liquefied
natural gas (LNG) plant in the country. The project includes the
development of the Golfinho and Atum fields located in Offshore
Area 1 and the construction of two liquefaction trains with a total
capacity of 13,1 million tons per annum (mtpa).
