Total Signs a Production Sharing Contract to Develop
the Tin Fouye Tabankort Field in Algeria (TotalFina)
Paris, January 28, 1996
TOTAL, Sonatrach and Repsol have just signed a production
sharing contract to develop and produce the natural gas
reserves of the Tin Fouye Tabankort field in southeast Algeria
and extract LPG and condensates. Final approval of the contract
by the Algerian authorities is still pending.
The three companies TOTAL (35 %), Sonatrach (35 %) and Repsol
(30 %) will establish a joint subsidiary to act as operator.
Gas from the Tin Fouye Tabankort field is damp and therefore
contains a high proportion of LPG and condensates. Under the
contract, a two-train facility to separate the LPG and
condensates from the gas is to be built by 1998.

Sixty wells -of which half is still to be drilled- will be
producing at that time. Over a period of twenty years, the
plant will produce 18 million cubic meters/day of dry gas,
700,000 tonnes/year of LPG and one million tonnes/year of
condensates.
The combined recoverable gas and liquid reserves have been
estimated at around one billion barrels of oil equivalent.
As reimbursement and payment for its expenses, TOTAL will
receive the share of production allocated to the company under
the terms of the production sharing agreement. It will transfer
its share of dry gas to Algeria's Sonatrach in exchange for
additional LPG and condensates. TOTAL will export its full
quota of LPG and condensates. In the future, the parties
reserve the right -by mutual agreement- to market the dry gas
jointly.
The project is to cost $850 million, with each of the three
partners investing proportionately to their stake.

22nd March, 1999
Production Started on Tin Fouye Tabankort Field in Algeria
TOTAL (35%), SONATRACH (35%) and REPSOL (30%) have started
production on the Tin Fouye Tabankort (TFT) natural gas field
located approximately 1,200 kilometers from Algiers in
southeast Algeria. The three partners operate the field jointly
under a production sharing agreement signed in January 1996 for
a 20-year period effective from startup.
Production of wet gas, which started at a rate of 5 million
cubic meters per day (cm/d), should reach the nominal rate of
20 million cm/d (around 7 billion cm per year) within the next
few weeks. The wet gas is separated into dry gas, LPG and
condensate in the field extraction plant, which has two
identical processing trains built by Brown & Root in
collaboration with several Algerian service companies.
Condensate and LPG are then shipped separately to the Algerian
coast at rates of respectively 23,000 b/d (850,000 metric tons
[Image]per year) and 26,000 b/d (750,000 metric tons per year). The
dry natural gas is transferred to the SONATRACH transportation
system.
Investment for TFT field development amounted to approximately
$700 million shared by each of the partners in proportion to
their interest. As repayment and compensation for this
investment, TOTAL and its partners receive the share of natural
gas, LPG and condensate output they are entitled to under the
production sharing agreement. They also receive additional LPG
and condensate from SONATRACH in exchange for handing over
their share of natural gas to the Algerian company.
TOTAL is also a partner with SONATRACH in operating the Hamra
field, which started production in late 1995. The output of
this field is currently about 1 million metric tons per year
(t/y) of condensate and 450,000 t/y of LPG, or around 40,000
barrels of oil equivalent per day.
Startup of TFT field production is consequently an important
milestone for TOTAL's operations in Algeria, where the Group is
committed to actively pursuing sustained growth.

("Pétrole, l'envolée sauvage/ Les prix ont doublé en un an. Et devraient
continuer à flamber", Libération du 22 novembre 1999)
Ainsi, l'Algérie, qui vit à plus de 95 % de ses
ventes de gaz et de pétrole, a vu ses réserves en
devises fondre de plus de 32 % en 1998 selon un
récent rapport du Conseil national économique et
social. La remontée actuelle des cours devrait donc
apporter à ce type de pays, très monoexportateur,
une énorme bouffée d'oxygène. D'autant plus
appréciable que les prix du pétrole resteront de
toute évidence fermes, au moins jusqu'à l'été.
Le marché pétrolier est-il devenu fou? Voilà que le baril d'or
noir s'échange aujourd'hui autour de 25 dollars, alors
qu'il cotait moins de 10 dollars en décembre dernier.(...)
La sortie de crise en Asie, l'hiver qui s'annonce foid
dans l'hémisphère Nord ...
