Company news

Following the recent exciting gold assay results, Akobo Minerals AB is pleased to announce that SRK Consulting (Australasia) Pty Ltd has begun their work on the maiden mineral resource estimate for the Segele gold target. SRK is a world leading specialist within exploration and mining consultancy and has experience from working on over 20,000 projects worldwide out of their 45 global offices.

The maiden mineral resource estimate is a first step towards reaching Akobo Minerals goal of defining 1,5 million to 2 million ounces gold.

CEO of Akobo Minerals Jørgen Evjen has this to say;

“Another milestone for the company, being able to define a maiden resource just after some thousand meters of drilling. This is unusual and says a lot about the Segele deposit. Even though this will be only our first indication of grade and tonnage at Segele, the main purpose of this estimate is to get our operations and quality systems acknowledged by an industry player as SRK. This will be the first of many updates going forward as we continue exploring the Segele deposit”


Principal Consultant at SRK, Michael Lowry (Resource Evaluation Specialist) said:

“SRK are excited to be working on the maiden Mineral Resource Estimate for the Segele Gold deposit. We look forward to partnering with Akobo Minerals and to join them in their journey to uncover the full potential of the region.”

The completion of this work with SRK will be an important milestone demonstrating the company’s ability to perform JORC compliant resource definition in addition to the discovery of new deposits. Akobo Minerals has now added additional world-class resource definition capacity which will be used at Segele, Joru and other targets to reach the corporate objectives.

FREYR Receives Government Low-Emission Grant from ENOVA to Support Development of Initial Clean Battery Cell Production Facility

Company news

2021-03-03 07:53:12

FREYR AS has received a NOK 142 million-grant (USD 16.4 million) from the Norwegian Ministry of Climate and Environment through ENOVA SF as part financing for the development and construction of a pilot plant in Mo i Rana, Norway, which will be FREYR’s initial clean battery cell production facility.

ENOVA is an enterprise owned by the Ministry of Climate and Environment. The enterprise is contributing to reduced non-quota greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and technology development and innovation that contributes to emission reductions up to 2050.

“It is exciting to see Norwegian businesses lead the way in the global battery race and develop tomorrow’s industry with tomorrow’s technology. It is important to ENOVA that Norwegian battery production is as climate friendly as possible, and we want to contribute to reducing the risks related to more environmentally friendly technology,” says Nils Kristian Nakstad, CEO of ENOVA.

With support from the grant, FREYR’s Board has sanctioned the final contracting processes for the plant. Construction of the plant is expected to start in the second quarter of 2021 and is an important step in realizing FREYR's initial target of scaling to 43 GWh of cost efficient and clean battery cell production capacity by 2025. FREYR plans to qualify this next generation battery cell technology as part of its ambition to accelerate the decarbonisation of all transportation and energy systems, and utilize Norway’s inherent advantages, including access to renewable energy, low electricity prices, Norway’s highly skilled workforce and the closeness to rapidly growing markets in Europe and the US.

“The ENOVA grant supports our decision to develop FREYR’s and Norway’s first lithium-ion battery cell manufacturing facility. The grant provides enabling financial support for our pilot plant and serves as a strong recognition of FREYR’s ambition to produce battery cells with high energy density at low cost with the world’s lowest carbon footprint” says Tom Einar Jensen, the CEO of FREYR.

On 29 January 2021, FREYR announced that it will become a publicly listed company through a business combination with Alussa Energy Acquisition Corp., raising approximately USD 850 million in equity proceeds to accelerate the development of clean battery cell manufacturing capacity in Norway. Subject to closing conditions being met, the combined company will be named “FREYR Battery” ("Pubco") and its common stock is expected to start trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol FREY upon closing, expected in the second quarter of 2021. On 16 February 2021, the extraordinary general meeting of FREYR approved the business combination.

Golar LNG Limited preliminary fourth quarter and financial year 2020 results

Company news

2021-02-25 13:30:02

Delivering on our commitment to shareholders with two transformative transactions

Iain Ross, CEO, Golar LNG, said:

Golar is pleased to report Q4 total operating revenues of $118.7 million, adjusted EBITDA¹ of $78.0 million and net income of $9.5 million, driven by another quarter of uninterrupted commercial uptime in FLNG and a Q4 Adjusted TCE¹ for the shipping fleet at $51,800 per day.

Previously announced sales of Hygo Energy Transition Ltd. (Hygo) and Golar LNG Partners LP (Golar Partners or the Partnership) to New Fortress Energy Inc. (NFE), in transactions with a combined enterprise value of approximately $5 billion, deliver on Golar's commitment to simplify its corporate structure and crystallize value to Golar shareholders. The combination of NFE, Hygo and Golar Partners will also create the leading LNG downstream distribution company. Golar's combined net proceeds of 18.6 million Class A shares in NFE and $131 million in cash, will, together with the $100.3 million of equity raised in December, significantly strengthen Golar's balance sheet.

The successful delivery of the FSRU LNG Croatia (formerly Golar Viking) to LNG Hrvatska d.o.o. (LNG Hrvatska) released a further $51.7 million of liquidity between December 2020 and Q1 2021. This project was completed on time, on budget and in spite of significant COVID related constraints and is a credit to Golar's project and operations teams.

• FLNG Gimi conversion project on track and on budget.
• Continued to refine Mark III 3.5 - 5.0mtpa designs with Korean yard to develop position on the healthy pipeline of new FLNG opportunities.
• Designs for smaller units with a shorter lead time to production also being explored.

Hygo Energy Transition Ltd:

• Golar and Stonepeak Infrastructure Partners entered into a merger agreement for the proposed sale of 100% of Hygo to NFE.
• Pursuant to the transaction, Golar will receive 18.6 million NFE Class A shares and $50 million in cash for its 50% shareholding in Hygo.
• The transaction represents a Hygo common equity value of approximately $2 billion, in line with contemplated Hygo IPO valuation expectations.
• Completion of the transaction is subject to the receipt of certain approvals and third-party consents and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions.
• After completion, Golar will have a ~9% shareholding in NFE, a larger and more diversified LNG downstream business with significant growth prospects, spurred by a strong business pipeline and access to attractive financing.

Outlook

LNG Shipping:

We expect the Q1 2021 fleet TCE¹ to be around $60,000 per day, with utilization of around 90% based on fixtures to date and prevailing spot market conditions. Despite the record spot rates recorded by the market in January, Golar's shipping strategy will continue to prioritize longer term utilization over short-term opportunities. Approximately 77% of 2021 available days are now covered. We do retain some exposure to seasonal and other potential upside by virtue of some index linked charters and spot availability within our shipping portfolio.

FLNG:

We will continue to focus on Hilli Episeyo operations and will pursue our dialogue with Perenco and SNH on potential solutions to prove up more reserves and increase throughput of the vessel. A conditional agreement with Perenco has been entered into that may allow for a drilling campaign to commence within Q1 2021. If drilling were to commence before the end of Q1 2021, additional throughput could commence in 2022. With Brent oil prices having recently exceeded $60, additional Brent linked operating cashflow can also be expected under the terms of the current contract.

On Gimi, our project focus is in Singapore on conversion productivity whilst complying with safe working under COVID-19 restrictions. The project remains on schedule, on budget and the 5th dry dock is on track to commence in Q1 2021.

We will continue to work with development opportunities for new FLNG projects utilizing both Mk I conversion and Mk III new build technologies. Smaller capacity solutions based on modular production technology that offer the prospect of a significantly shorter lead time to first production will also be explored further.

Following the re-emergence of strong returns in the upstream segment Golar will revisit opportunities to use its unique FLNG technology and operational experience to increase its potential upstream exposure. This can be achieved by virtue of the current Hilli oil price kicker or by more direct exposure. The target remains to capture more of the spread between well and wire and the strategy is in line with that articulated when OneLNG was established with Schlumberger in 2016. The collapse in oil and gas prices at that time caused Golar to focus on the build out of its downstream business which has now been successfully established following the proposed merger with NFE.

Corporate:

The entry into merger agreements resulting in the eventual sales of Hygo and Golar Partners to NFE represent significant steps toward simplifying the group structure, crystallizing value and strengthening the balance sheet. With $128 million of unrestricted cash on hand as at December 31, 2020, a further $37 million released from the sale of the LNG Croatia in Q1 2021 and $131 million of cash proceeds expected upon closing of the proposed sales of Hygo and Golar Partners, Golar's balance sheet will be significantly strengthened. Together with the 18.6 million NFE shares with a market value of $910 million as of February 24, 2021, Golar is now well-positioned to refinance the 2022 maturing convertible bond, complete all project CAPEX obligations, and target attractive growth prospects. The Golar Board does not intend to create a long-term holding company of other publicly traded entities. The Board will therefore focus on solutions that give shareholders direct exposure to the underlying assets and thereby minimize any holding company discounts.

In order to capture the significant discount to book value/underlying value, Golar will also explore opportunities to separate the FLNG business. With a unique fast-track, low cost technical LNG production platform, $3.4 billion (Golar share) in contract earnings backlog¹, and attractive growth prospects, the Board is of the opinion that there is also significant hidden value in this business segment.

Supported by increased financial flexibility following the proposed NFE transactions and a continuing disparity between the share price and the underlying value of the business, the Board has approved a share buyback program of up to $50 million of the Companys common stock. After expiry of the 90 day lock-up period for the NFE Class A shares to be received upon consummation of the merger agreement for the proposed sale of Hygo, the Board will revert with a plan for how the value of this investment can best be transferred to Golar shareholders, either directly and or indirectly.  The Board of Golar sees significant strategic upside in the NFE business, particularly as the company has taken a leading role in the global downstream distribution of LNG, supported by strong long-term cash flow contracts.

Driven by a stronger performance of the shipping fleet and consistent operations from FLNG Hilli Episeyo, Golar's expects a solid improvement in Q1 results relative to Q4. Influenced by a potential $773 million illustrative gain on disposals¹ of Hygo and Golar Partners to NFE, results for 1H 2021 are also expected to be materially ahead of prior periods.

Financial Review

Business Performance:

(2) The line item "Realized and unrealized gain /(loss) on oil derivative instrument" in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income/(Loss) relating to income from the FLNG Hilli Episeyo Liquefaction Tolling Agreement is split into, "Realized gain on oil derivative instrument" and "Unrealized loss on oil derivative instrument". The unrealized component represents a mark-to-market loss of $5.7 million (September 30, 2020: $0.2 million gain and December 31, 2019: $4.3 million) on the oil embedded derivative, which represents the estimate of expected receipts under the remainder of the Brent oil linked clause of the Hilli Episeyo Liquefaction Tolling Agreement. The realized component amounts to $nil (September 30, 2020: $nil and December 31, 2019: $1.1 million) and represents the income in relation to the Hilli Episeyo Liquefaction Tolling Agreement receivable in cash.

To align our reportable segments and more clearly show the performance of shipping as a standalone business, Golar has separated other operations which include management and administrative services and labelled this segment Corporate and other.

Golar reports today Q4 operating income of $45.5 million compared to operating income of $30.6 million in Q3.

Total operating revenues increased 25% from $95.2 million in Q3 to $118.7 million in Q4, partially mitigated by an increase in voyage, charter hire and commission expenses, from $0.5 million in Q3 to $5.8 million in Q4. Of the $23.5 million increase in total operating revenues, $15.1 million was attributable to an improved shipping performance. The remainder of the increase is mainly due to billing for 2019-2020 overproduction by FLNG Hilli Episeyo.

Revenue from shipping, net of voyage, charterhire and commission expenses was $44.9 million and increased by $9.8 million from $35.1 million in Q3. The quarter began with quoted TFDE¹ carrier headline spot rates at around $59,000 per day and ended with rates at around $160,000 per day. The earlier commitment of a significant portion of the fleet to term contracts in accordance with a utilization focused strategy, a cap on the rate receivable for some of the index linked charters and a mechanical issue with one of the remaining spot vessels limited Golar's exposure to the higher spot rates observed later in the quarter. Full fleet TCE¹ earnings increased from $39,100 in Q3 2020 to $48,800 in Q4 2020 but decreased relative to the $77,000 achieved in Q4 2019. Inclusive of loss of hire income receivable, Golar's Q4 Adjusted TCE¹ was $51,800, in line with prior guidance.

Operating revenues from FLNG Hilli Episeyo, including base tolling fees and amortization of pre-acceptance amounts recognized, increased from $54.5 million in Q3 to $62.5 million in Q4. Billing for 2019 and 2020 overproduction of $5.1 million and $2.9 million respectively, accounts for the increase in Q4.

Reduced crew costs for FLNG Hilli Episeyo contributed to a $2.0 million reduction in vessel operating expenses from $28.2 million in Q3 to $26.2 million in Q4. Project development expenses increased from $1.2 million in Q3 to $2.8 million in Q4. FLNG feed costs and expenses in connection with the proposed NFE transactions account for most of the $1.6 million increase.

A loss of hire claim in respect of the aforementioned mechanical failure on board one of the carriers accounts for the $2.7 million other operating income in Q4.

Having completed the conversion and sale of the FSRU LNG Croatia (formerly Golar Viking) to LNG Hrvatska on December 23, a gain on sale of $5.7 million was recognized in other non-operating income.

Depreciation and amortization, at $26.8 million was in line with the prior quarter.

Net Income Summary:

In Q4 the group generated $9.5 million of net income, compared to a Q3 net loss of $21.8 million. Key items contributing to this are:

• A $2.1 million Q4 gain on derivative instruments compared to a $4.7 million loss in Q3, mainly due to an increase in LIBOR rates and the impact this has on the Company's fixed interest rate swaps.
• Other financial items of $3.5 million reflecting non-cash foreign exchange losses on FSRU LNG Croatia related swaps and various other retranslations.
• The $5.7 million of equity in net income of affiliates primarily comprises the following:
  • • $0.2 million net income in respect of Golar's 50% share in Hygo; and
    • $5.7 million net income in respect of Golar's 32% share in Golar Partners.

Net losses attributable to non-controlling interests relate to the Hilli Episeyo, the Gimi and the finance lease lessor VIEs.

Financing and Liquidity:

Our cash position as at December 31, 2020 was $316.1 million. This was made up of $127.7 million of unrestricted cash and $188.4 million of restricted cash. Restricted cash includes $62.1 million relating to lessor-owned VIEs, $36.7 million in escrow for the LNG Croatia, subsequently released in January 2021, and $77.2 million relating to the Hilli Episeyo Letter of Credit, of which $15.2 million has been classified as short-term and is expected to be released to free cash in Q2 2021.

In early December Golar took steps to strengthen its balance sheet through a registered equity offering of 12,067,789 shares of its common stock. The issue price was $8.75 per share. Using a new $100 million credit facility secured by its interest in Hygo and the $100.3 million net proceeds of the equity offering, Golar then repaid the $150 million term loan facility secured by its interest in Hygo and the $30 million margin loan secured by its interest in Golar Partners. The new $100 million credit facility will continue to be secured by Golar's interest in Hygo until the proposed sale to NFE closes, with Golar's interest in NFE

Akobo Minerals (AKOBO) - New bonanza grade intersections from diamond drilling

Company news

2021-02-23 10:48:33

Akobo Minerals is pleased to announce that they have received new assay results back from the ALS Ireland laboratory regarding the Segele gold target. Many high grade assays have been returned, including new significant intersections of 131g/t over 2.5m and 17g/t over 13m (see Table 1). These results complement previous bonanza and high grade assay results including 340g/t over 21m and 115g/t over 5m announced previously.

Chief Executive Officer, Jørgen Evjen said:
“We are very pleased with this latest round of assays from Segele and we are confident that the gold mineralization continues much further to depth. Although we are at the start of our drilling campaign at the Akobo Project, our continued success at Segele gives us optimism that we will reach our goal of defining 1.5 to 2 million ounces of gold over the next three years. We have a large area of exciting and prospective licenses and we are excited about the times ahead”

SEE ATTACHED PRESS RELEASE IN PDF


The Segele gold target was first discovered by Akobo Minerals geologists and previous assays from diamond-drilling have demonstrated a narrow (approx. 20m wide) gold zone. The gold is predominantly present as large grains easily visible to the naked eye (coarse-gold type mineralization). See company presentation for more details (21st January 2021).

To date over 4,350m of diamond drilling has been completed at site, of which only 3160m has so far been assayed. Several intersections in the core which remains to be assayed contains exciting levels of visible gold. The depth extension remains open (see press release 15/02/2021).

The Segele gold target is just one target in the 100% owned 182km2 exploration license under investigation by Akobo Minerals. The next priority target for drilling, Joru, is prospective for low grade-high tonnage mineralization and RC drilling has returned results including: 3.1g/t over 2m and 3.1g/t over 1m. In addition to Segele and Joru, Akobo geologists believe a large number of gold exploration targets exist in this unexplored region of Ethiopia.
