Energean Plc (LON:ENOG, TASE: אנאג) has announce that Energean Israel Limited has signed a new Gas Sale and Purchase Agreement (GSPA) with Kesem Energy Ltd.
The contract is for the supply of gas to Kesem’s new power plant, which is estimated to be operational before the end of the current decade[1]. Contracted supply is ~1 bcm/yr from around the middle of the 2030s until the end of the contract period. Prior to this, Energean Israel will supply limited quantities of gas intermittently. The contract[2] represents over $2 billion in revenues and ~12.5 bcm in contracted supply over the ~17 year period.
The contract contains provisions regarding floor pricing, take or pay and price indexation (not Brent-price linked). The GSPA has been signed at levels that are in line with the other large, long-term contracts within Energean’s portfolio.
Mathios Rigas, Chief Executive Officer of Energean, commented:
“We are pleased to announce the signing of another new contract, this time with Kesem, whose new planned power plant demonstrates the robust and growing long-term demand for natural gas in Israel. Energean has been a major underwriter of both energy security and transition in Israel and the broader region. We are delighted to continue to meet the needs of Israeli clients and society.
“This contract also reflects our long-stated commitment to securing stable and reliable long-term cash flows. We have now secured around $20 billion in contracted revenues over the next two decades.
“Our strategy emphasises stability and resilience, evidenced by the fact that over 75% of our Group production contains floor pricing. This approach safeguards our operations and investments against global financial and commodity price volatility. It is and remains one of the core tenets of our strategy and investment thesis.”
