ETHIOPIA TAKING SOMALI PETROLEUM

[BetterDaysAhead]

THIS PETROLEUM BELONGS TO US

The Government of Ethiopia reveals additional information on the recent petroleum test production in the eastern part of the country, near Hilala gas discovery site in Somali Region Ogaden area.

Experts at the Ministry of Mines and Petroleum of Ethiopia told reporters on Friday that the latest test production of about 1,650 barrels of crude oil aimed at identifying the potential application and volume of the petroleum reserve.

“The crude oil we produced as a test is discovered near Hilala gas field. It is part of the testing process about the amount and potential application of the reserve and the like. In other countries they simply burn it at this stage. But we produced it safely without burning and avoiding environmental pollution as well,” said Ketsela Tadesse (PhD), Petroleum Licence and Administration Director at the Ministry of Mines and Petroleum of Ethiopia.

He noted that the test product is sold to companies, which were using imported coal and or furnace oil for road construction, for glass production. It is also stated that the crude oil production is tested by the same company, Poly-GCL of China, which is preparing to start production of gas in the same area after constructing a pipeline up to Djibouti Port.

The petroleum is sold produced and sold in domestic market during the first six months of Ethiopia’s current fiscal year started July 8, 2019.

“The construction of pipeline for the natural gas has not started so far. Meanwhile, most of the agreements related to the construction of the pipeline are completed. But still additional agreements are being negotiated, especially in relation to what kind of products should be produced from the gas, gas commercialization agreement, as well as how it will be marketed with local companies.


Construction of the pipeline will commence after such agreements are concluded,” Dr. Ketsela said, at a press conference the Ministry held on Friday.

He further noted that currently the Government of Ethiopia has engaged an international consultancy along with local experts in negotiation of Calub and Hilala natural gas commercialization with Poly-GCL. He noted that Government of Ethiopia plans to sell the gas in liquefied natural gas (LNG) form after refining it at Djibouti Port.

Out of the total oil revenue of the government 50 percent goes to the region the oil and petroleum is found, according to the the latest proclamation approved by the Lower House (House of Federation of Ethiopia). Out of which 10 percent will be directed to the specific locality the the oil is found.
The federal government will get the remaining 50 percent out of which 25 percent will be invested in parts of Ethiopia which are not endowed with the natural resource.

The sedimentary regions of Ethiopia cover a significant portion of the country and comprise five distinct sedimentary basins; namely: the Ogaden, Abay (the Blue Nile), Mekele, Gambela and Southern Rift Basins, according to the survey of Ethiopian Geological Survey, the state agency.

In addition to Poly-GCL, a British company named NewAge has been working to start test production after announcing discovery of petroleum in Ethiopia. Gas shows were observed in six wells in the upper parts of the Adigrat Sandstone at depth interval of 2442 meters to 3414 meters. In the gas-condensate fields of Calub and Hilala, with respective estimated reserves of 2.7 trillion cubic feet and 1.3 trillion cubic feet, the main reservoir unit is the Adigrat Sandstone.

 

[Mr.Haggis]

kkkkkkkk they can have jubbaland and somaliland as well

 

[Lum]

kkkkkkkk they can have jubbaland and somaliland as well

Why?

 

[AhmedSmelly]

Why?

Because they are working with the enemy at the cost breaking Somalia.

Unfortunately, the comment of @Mr.Haggis is politically drived. He is a puntland supporter. So he shouldn't criticise others when his own government sold its resources to China and UAE. China was given the fishing rights of the coast of Somalia. UAE controls the ports of Bosaso, taxing everything that comes in. They are getting rich, while the Somali middle Class is leaving Somalia because a lot of businesses deals favours the UAE.

Somalia is number 1 in the corruption index. So remember when people point fingers on other governments, they forget their own government they support. Because its easier to criticise than to accept, that your own Qail is a part of the problem.

Ogaden agreed to it. Then it's up to them to ensure he keeps his promise and gives them what they want. Abiy can't drill oil if the ogaden are not at peace with the government.

Khasaro ogaden. Teeri alpha wants to talk shit about ciise and dir take look at your people

you need pipes lines for oil, nothing has been taken out, no pipe lines built, we will negotiate and bid our time

as if Americans will allow a Chinese firm to taker out oil, why do you think Americans in their base in ethiopia protected ONLF when we killed 74 habashi soldiers and 9 Chinese engineers in 2007?

do yuo think they can take oil when they need pure peace to make sure no pipeline is blown up?

dream up, dont come to me begging me to feed you later when we make a deal insha Allah

Yeah I remember its something like a 50% of oil revenue goes to Ogaden, while the rest is divided by their 100s of states they got.

Just take the L and move on. Karbashed and looted by amxaar day and night, cant relate

[kickz]

Its not a bad deal, its better than previous deal where Ogaden was going to get nothing/there would be no drilling.

 

[Yahya]

Even better. None of those states completely agree with each other on anything and that splits the money up evenly so that it doesn't end up directly in the hands of the main enemies of the ogadeni ppl.

What kind of stupid are they? Sharing their oil with amxaars ciise would have never done that

Who the main enemy? I am curious

 

[Yahya]

Who the main enemy? I am curious

Mainly Amhara if we're being honest. The rest of the tribes in ethiopia are langaab and don't want to exterminate reer ogaden as much as those hatrs do. Oromos clash with them from here and there but thye posed no threat and abiy is keeping the peace now.

So they're sharing their resources with their main enemy? other tribes are not laangab that's ogaden propaganda

he said hearing reports, nothing has been agreed, trust me on that, I would know, I am not just an average OG, i am the chief economist of a very well connected economic researchers for the OG nation

nothing has been agreed, all will be agreed after the elections insha Allah

twitter hearsay reports, zero has been agreed, and trust me its in their interest to agree, why? because pipelines cost billions and can be sorted out by an average farax with small items that can take them out

horta we dont even know abiy will come back and he sure will not rule ethiopia with 18% of votes from ahmaar, since oromo do not want him,

lets see if ethiopia is still stable and peaceful after the elections
