XRG has secured an interest in Venezuela's offshore Loran gas licence, marking its entry into the country's energy sector. This move expands Abu Dhabi National Oil Company's international investment arm, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), into Latin America's natural gas and liquefied natural gas market. The partnership, which involves BP and UCC Oil and Gas Holding, will develop more than 4 trillion cubic feet of gas, with the combined Loran-Manatee accumulation containing about 10 trillion cubic feet of recoverable gas.
The project is expected to come online in 2027, with peak output at about 604 million standard cubic feet per day. XRG's participation in this venture signifies a strategic shift towards building an international gas and LNG platform.
