Ørsted (Denmark) enters into an agreement to divest its Danish power distribution,
residential customer and City Light businesses to SEAS-NVE
Ørsted has signed an agreement to divest its Danish power
distribution (Radius), residential customer and City Light
businesses to SEAS-NVE for a price of DKK 21.3 billion on a
cash and debt-free basis. The proceeds will be paid in cash upon
closing of the transaction. The agreement has been entered into
following an unsolicited, non-binding offer which Ørsted
received from SEAS-NVE in second half of June 2019. The
agreement follows the decision made in June 2018 by Ørsted’s
Board of Directors and Executive Management that Ørsted is
not the best long term-owner of these businesses. The decision
led Ørsted to initiate a structured divestment process for these
businesses in autumn 2018. In January 2019, this divestment
process was discontinued as the political support required to
continue the process was no longer there.
CEO and President of Ørsted, says:“With Ørsted’s global
expansion in renewable energy, we’re no longer the right
owner of Radius and the Danish residential customer and
City Light businesses. We’re therefore happy to enter into an
agreement with SEAS-NVE, which is Denmark’s second
largest cooperatively-owned energy company, to buy these
businesses. The agreement ensures an attractive transaction
for Ørsted’s shareholders and provides a good future home
for the customers and for our highly skilled employees. We’ll
use the proceeds from the divestment to continue our global
investments in green energy.”

Poland and the entire region. This important contribution, also raising the competitiveness of the Polish economy, has been
recognized by the editorial board of the Nowy Przemysł Economic Magazine and the WNP.PL website.The strength and
innovation of the national economy determines the position of domestic companies both in the region and in Europe. That
is why PKN ORLEN is committed to ensuring the country's energy security. Hence, strengthened activities to diversify oil
supplies - for the entire ORLEN Group, over 40% of supplies already come from directions other than Russian, and in
2012-2013 it was only 5%. The implemented investments are also extremely important, which are aimed at improving
Poland's trade balance, especially in the area of petrochemistry, which will gain in importance. Over the past year alone,
PKN ORLEN has initiated a number of projects building the Group's value in the long run, such as the Petrochemical
Development Program, the construction of a fertilizer installation in ANWIL in Włocławek and a plant for the production
of "green" glycol in ORLEN Południe.

Halliburton (USA) Awarded License for Gravel Pack Completions
28
Halliburton announced that it was awarded an international license for ExxonMobil’s patented Non-Aqueous Fluid Gravel
Packing (NAFPac™) technique for gravel pack completions. Hole stability and shale inhibition are keys to successful installation
of openhole completions. Non-aqueous fluid (NAF) is often selected to optimize the drilling process, but hole stability issues can
occur when displacement to brine is done prior to screen running operations. The NAFPac process is a gravel packing technique
that enables an operator to run the gravel-pack screens in NAF, gravel pack the well, and then subsequently displace the casing
to completion brine, all in a single trip. Running the screens in NAF significantly increases the probability of successful screen
installation and a complete gravel pack.Founded in 1919, Halliburton celebrates its 100 years of service as one of the world's
largest providers of products and services to the energy industry. With 60,000 employees, representing 140 nationalities in more
than 80 countries, the company helps its customers maximize value throughout the lifecycle of the reservoir — from locating
hydrocarbons and managing geological data, to drilling and formation evaluation, well construction and completion, and
optimizing production throughout the life of the asset.

Equinor (Norway) wins opportunity to develop the world’s largest offshore
wind farm
29
UK authorities announced, 20 September, that Equinor and its partner SSE were awarded contracts to develop
three large scale offshore wind projects in the Dogger Bank region of the North Sea. This will be the world’s
biggest offshore wind farm development with a total installed capacity of 3.6 GW. The projects are expected
to produce enough energy to power the equivalent of 4.5 million UK homes. The Dogger Bank wind farm will
consist of three projects, Creyke Beck A, Creyke Beck B and Teesside A. The clearing prices for the projects
are GBP 39.650 per MWh for Creyke Beck A and GBP 41.611 per MWh for the Creyke Beck B and the
Teesside A projects (all in 2012 real prices). The auction results reflect the continued cost reductions and
technological developments and the increasing competitiveness of bottom-fixed offshore wind. The contracts
offer a fixed price for the first 15 years of operation, providing the projects with a long-term predictable
revenue stream.

Equinor (Norway) awarding pioneering wireless subsea drone contract
30
Equinor, on behalf of the Njord licence, has awarded Saipem a subsea service contract using a wireless underwater
intervention drone and an ROV. This contract will make Equinor the first user of technology expected to be completed
in 2020. The services from Saipem Limited Norway Branch will be employed when the Njord field resumes production
in 2020. Lasting for ten years, the contract has five 2-year options for additional extension. The value of the fixed part
of the contract is estimated at about EUR 40 million. The contract lays down requirements for permanent presence in
Norway and Norwegian-speaking personnel.The new technology employs an underwater intervention drone
(Hydrone-R) and an all-electric work class ROV (Hydrone-W). The drone may be autonomous below Njord for
months between scheduled maintenance, whereas Hydrone-W will be connected to the platform like a traditional ROV.
Both are electric and can be operated without a surface vessel. The use of this technology will therefore contribute to
significant carbon reduction. In addition, the response time will be reduced. Furthermore, the operations will not be
dependent on weather conditions.

OMV (Austria) and AustroCelHallein sign bioethanol supply agreement
49
OMV, the international, integrated oil and gas company headquartered in Vienna, and AustroCelHallein GmbH have recently
signed a multi-year agreement to supply advanced bioethanol. The agreement relates to fuel components derived exclusively
from cellulose. Their sustainable base leads them to be classified as “advanced biofuels” and in future they will be added to OMV
gasoline to fulfil legal additive requirements. The product will play a part in reducing the carbon intensity of the OMV product
portfolio and thereby help it to meet its OMV 2025 Sustainability Goals. AustroCelHallein is committed to the cascading use of
resources: High-purity cellulose is produced from spruce, which comes from the sawmill industry as scrap; this cellulose is
predominantly processed in Asia to make fibers for textile applications. The spruce used in Hallein only contains 40% cellulose
and that’s why the incidental material must be optimally exploited to generate the greatest value added and guarantee maximum
resource efficiency. When the wood is boiled, so-called brown liquor is produced. In the past this was vaporized and then burnt
off. But this brown liquor contains valuable wood sugars that can be fermented via the addition of yeast, after which they can be
distilled into bioethanol.

TechnipFMC (UK) and DNV GL sign a partnership to set the benchmark
for trust in oil and gas industry’s digital twins
51
TechnipFMC and DNV GL have entered into a partnership to develop the oil and gas industry’s first methodology
for qualifying the integrity of digital twin technology. The methodology aims to bring a level playing field to the
sector’s varying technical definitions of, and expectations towards digital twins. It will set a benchmark for oil and
gas operators, supply chain partners and regulators to establish trust in digital twin-generated data for performance
and safety decision-making in projects and operations. Digital twins, a digital representation of a physical asset and
its behavior, have the potential to rapidly emerge as the foundation for asset design and operation across the oil and
gas value chain. Oil and gas companies are increasingly using the technology to bring asset information from
multiple sources together in a single and secure place and connecting 3D models with real time field data during
operation phase. Through Digital Twins, Operators will also be able to get more insights and simulate the behavior
of the asset depending on operational conditions to facilitate the decision-making.
