EU knickt ein: Nach US-Druck: EU setzt Strafen gegen Öl- und Gasfirmen aus (Wallstreet-Online)
|
|
|
Die Europäische Kommission hat die EU-Regierungen angewiesen, die Strafen für Öl- und Gasunternehmen, die gegen das Methanemissionsgesetz verstoßen, für drei Jahre auszusetzen. Dies geschah nach Druck seitens der US-Regierung, die Regeln zurückzunehmen. Ab Januar 2027 sollte das Gesetz vorschreiben, dass importiertes Öl und Gas Emissionsüberwachungsvorschriften erfüllen müssen, die denen Europas gleichwertig sind. Die Kommission erklärte am Montag, die EU-Länder sollten in den Jahren 2027, 2028 und 2029 keine Strafen gegen Unternehmen verhängen, die gegen das Methangesetz verstoßen, um "Versorgungsstörungen zu vermeiden". Die Europäische Kommission setzt das Gesetz nicht außer Kraft. Sie empfiehlt den Mitgliedstaaten lediglich, von 2027 bis 2029 keine Sanktionen gegen Importeure zu verhängen, wenn diese die neuen Vorgaben noch nicht erfüllen. Die Überwachung und Berichtspflichten bleiben grundsätzlich bestehen..

The pipeline is meant to extend from Haditha to Turkiye's Ceyhan port and the port of Baniyas in Syria.
The details of the reported agreement were not discussed publicly during meetings between Zaidi and US President Donald Trump in the Oval Office on Tuesday. Neither the US president nor the Iraqi premier mentioned the deal. AP referred to it as a “significant energy deal.”
A senior Trump administration official said later on 14 July that W...

Venezuela's Oil Revival Faces A Critical Services Bottleneck
Authored by Rystad Energy via OilPrice.com,
Venezuela could increase crude production by about 194,000 bpd by late 2028, with most growth coming from existing producing fields rather than new discoveries.
International oil companies led by Chevron are expected to deliver nearly two-thirds of the forecast production increase through brownfield investments.
The biggest obstacles are operational, including drilling rigs, diluent supplies, infrastructure upgrades, and a competitive fiscal regime capable of attracting long-term investment.
Venezuela's upstream industry has entered a new phase. Following sweeping hydrocarbon reforms and broader geopolitical developments in early 2026, the conversation has shifted from whether the country can reopen its oil sector to whether it can successfully execute a meaningful production recovery. The country's resource potential has never been in doubt. The greater challenge now lies i...
