TotalEnergies - Angola: Start-up of BEGONIA and CLOV Phase 3 Offshore Projects
TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) announces the start of production from the BEGONIA and CLOV Phase 3 offshore projects, leveraging ullage in the PAZFLOR and CLOV floating production, storage and offloading units (FPSO) to add a total of 60,000 barrels a day of new production.
These two subsea tie-back projects deliver additional production leveraging available capacity on existing FPSO's and as such have low marginal costs and low carbon intensities.
BEGONIA, the first development on Block 17/06
TotalEnergies (30%, operator) announces the start of production from BEGONIA, the first inter-block development in Angola. A project made possible thanks to good cooperation between the Angolan concession holder Agencia Nacional de Petróleo, Gás e Biocombustíveis (ANPG), the partners of the block 17/06, Sonangol E&P (30%), SSI (27,5%), ETU Energias (7.5%), Falcon Oil (5%), and the partners of block 17 also operated by TotalEnergies.
Located 150 kilometers off the Angolan coast, BEGONIA is a 30,000 barrels per day project consisting of five wells subsea tied back to the PAZFLOR FPSO.
CLOV Phase 3, continued upsides on Block 17
TotalEnergies (38%, operator) also announces the first oil from CLOV Phase 3 in Block 17, in agreement with ANPG and its partners Equinor (22,16%), ExxonMobil (19%), Azule Energy (15.84%) and Sonangol E&P (5%).
Located 140 kilometers from the Angolan coast, CLOV Phase 3 is a 30,000 barrels per day project consisting of four wells subsea tie-back to the CLOV FPSO.
'TotalEnergies, operator of Block 17 and 17/06, continues to actively deliver its low-cost and low-emissions developments to grow its upstream production by more than 3% in 2025,' stated Nicolas Terraz, President Exploration & Production at TotalEnergies. 'With BEGONIA and CLOV Phase 3, we are leveraging available production capacity in existing FPSOs of Block 17 (PAZFLOR and CLOV) while reducing costs and emissions.'
'Good news for the country, as those two First Oils will help Angola maintain its production levels above 1 million baril per day. BEGONIA is the first project between Blocks in Angola with a significant component of Local Content and CLOV 3 is a great achievement resulting from intense work between the concessionaire and the B17 contractor group, operated by TotalEnergies. Projects like these are extremely important as they prove the innovative spirit and dynamism of the oil sector in Angola,' declared Paulino Jerónimo, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Agency for Petroleum, Gas and Biofuels.

The FREE Barchart Brief newsletter keeps you in the know. Sign up now! Stocks remained higher after today's mixed batch of economic news showed a resilient labor market, but weaker-than-expected consumer spending and still sticky price pressures and labor costs. Weighing on the Dow Jones Industrials index is a -4% slide in UnitedHealth Group after Baird downgraded the stock to underperform from neutral. US weekly initial unemployment claims rose +1,000 to 218,000, showing a stronger labor market than expectations of 224,000. US Jun personal spending rose +0.3% m/m, weaker than expectations of +0.4% m/m. Jun personal income rose +0.3% m/m, stronger than expectations of +0.2% m/m. The US Jun core PCE price index, the Fed's preferred inflation gauge, rose +2.8% y/y, stronger than expectations of +2.7% y/y. The US Q2 employment cost index rose +0.9%, stronger than expectations of +0.8%. The US Jul MNI Chicago PMI rose +6.7 to a four-month high 47.1, stronger than expectations of 42.0. In the latest tariff news, President Trump today said he will impose a tariff rate of 15% on imports from South Korea and that a deal with Taiwan was also being drafted as the two countries reached 'a certain degree of consensus.' In addition, trade deals are in the offing for Thailand and Cambodia after they agreed to a ceasefire. The markets this week will focus on any news of new trade deals before Friday's deadline. On Friday, Jul nonfarm payrolls are expected to increase by +109,000, and the Jul unemployment rate is expected to rise by +0.1 to 4.2%. Also, Jul average hourly earnings are expected +0.3% m/m and +3.8% y/y. In addition, the Jul ISM manufacturing index is expected to increase by +0.2 to 49.5. Finally, the University of Michigan Jul consumer sentiment index is expected to be unrevised at 61.8. The markets are awaiting President Trump's August 1 deadline for trade deals to avoid high tariffs. On July 16, Mr. Trump announced that he intends to send a tariff letter to more than 150 countries, notifying them that their tariff rates could be 10% or 15%, effective August 1. As an update, Mr. Trump last Wednesday said, 'We'll have a straight, simple tariff of anywhere between 15% and 50%,' an indication that the floor for tariffs is rising and suggesting that he would not go below 15%. Federal funds futures prices are discounting the chances for a -25 bp rate cut at 40% at the September 16-17 FOMC meeting and 36% at the following meeting on October 28-29. This week kicks off the earnings season's busiest week, with 38% of the stocks in the S&P 500 reporting quarterly earnings, double the amount reported last week. The earnings results of Magnificent Seven members will be front and center, with Apple and reporting after today's closing. Early results show that S&P 500 earnings are on track to rise +4.5% for the second quarter, better than the pre-season expectations of +2.8% y/y, according to Bloomberg Intelligence.

China's Shanghai Composite slid to a 1-week low and closed down -1.18%. Japan's Nikkei Stock 225 closed up +1.02%. Interest Rates September 10-year T-notes (ZNU25) today are up +6 ticks. The 10-year T-note yield is down -3.8 bp to 4.332%. T-notes are moving higher today on some positive carryover from a rally in 10-year UK gilts to a 3.5-week high. Also, month-end buying of longer-term government debt securities by bond fund managers to extend duration and balance their bond portfolios is supportive for T-notes. T-notes fell back from their best levels after weekly jobless claims rose less than expected, and the Q2 employment cost index and the Jun core PCE price index, the Fed's preferred inflation gauge, rose more than expected, hawkish factors for Fed policy. In addition, T-notes have some negative carryover from Wednesday when Fed Chair Powell dampened speculation of a Fed rate cut in September when he said that with inflation risks from tariffs, the current modestly restrictive policy stance is appropriate. European government bond yields today are moving lower. The 10-year German bund yield is down -1.0 bp to 2.695%. The 10-year UK gilt yield fell to a 3.5-week low of 4.557% and is down -3.5 bp to 4.567%. The Eurozone Jun employment rate remained unchanged at a record low of 6.2%, showing a stronger labor market than expectations of a +0.1 point increase to 6.3%. The German Jul unemployment change rose +2,000, showing a stronger labor market than expectations of +15,000. German Jul CPI (EU harmonized) eased to +1.8% y/y from +2.0% y/y in Jun, weaker than expectations of +1.9% y/y and the slowest pace of increase in 10 months. Swaps are discounting the chances at 11% for a -25 bp rate cut by the ECB at the September 11 policy meeting.

Chuck Grassley (Iowa), the Senate's most senior Republican, on social media and are pushing back on Trump's attempts to squeeze the senator into abolishing an arcane procedure known as the Senate blue slip,' The Hill's Alexander Bolton reports. How so?: 'GOP senators were not pleased that Trump piled so much pressure on Grassley, the chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, to get rid of a long-established Senate tradition. Trump piled on by reposting on Truth Social posts accusing Grassley of being a 'RINO' and 'sneaky' and standing in the way of Trump's agenda.' ➤ THE VIBE IN THE SENATE — EVERYONE IS BURNT OUT: NOTUS's Ursula Perano summed it up well: 'the senators are sick of the senators, the senators are sick of reporters, the reporters are sick of reporters, nobody has seen enough daylight the last 6 months, etc.' Remember, the 'big, beautiful bill' scramble cut their last recess short.
