News: Gas Crisis next Winter The UK's biggest gas storage facility, Rough, will see its capacity cut by a third by Centrica during the summer, whilst it tries to make repairs to the ageing site.(Daily Mail report 28th March City & Finance). The site is located in an old North Sea gas field, 2 miles under the seabed and 20 miles off the nYorkshire coast. It accounts for 3/4 of UK's entire gas storage.Without it Britain will be more reliant on imports from undersea pipelines from Norway, The Netherlands and Belgium, which are subject to sharp price fluctuations.Testing at the site will reduce its maximum capacity to up to 30% for at least 6 months. Centrica refuses to say whether the site will ever return to full capacity. Gas firms usually buy gas in the summer, when it is cheaper and store it until winter, when they sell it and pocket the difference. 2 years ago Britain came within 6 hours of running out of gas supplies due to a harsh winter. The event caused gas prices to triple in a single morning and calls were made for more storage facilities.Currently the UK has enough storage for 3 weeks compared with 100 days in Germany and France and 6 months in the US. After ministers refused subsidies to build gas stores, Centrica ditched 2 projects worth £1.5bn.

Re: Sinking ship? I am 79% down but I will ride the winds to calmer waters in 3 yrs. Hopefully

Sinking ship? Per RNS, Robert Keith who owned nearly 4% has substantially reduced his holding. And looks to be selling out.Not a vote of confidence in the future by a big shareholder.

UK oil and gas companies expect to create thousands of jobs over the next two years despite the dramatic slide in oil prices.

RNS. [link] time of the Dart potential float, then potential listing, I said that Ineos might have stepped in and bought it out, this deal has meant that they get most of what they would have wanted and IGas are proved right about buying it themselves last summer when valuations were attractive, leaving them with parts of the portfolio that they now keep. As I suggested a few weeks ago, IGas well and truly come off the subs bench…I will tweak all these numbers when the maps and figures come out. - See more at: [link]

Re: RNS Agree with that rtda, it is an opportunistic farm in by Jim Ratcliffe but then that is one of his trademarks. He has built his career on acquiring undervalued assets. If I ever see him again there will be some banter regarding how he has effectively pinched half of my shareholding!On the plus side I believe INEOS will appraise the Bowland acreage to discover whether it will yield commercial rates with more determination and haste than IGAS could ever achieve. One question mark would be whether INEOS prioritises the Scottish acreage since it clearly believes this could support Grangemouth. Regards,Gramacho

Re: RNS I almost raised a glass of celebration for IGAS shareholders until I read this paragraph:"NEOS to fund a two phase carried work programme of up to £138 million of which IGas' share of the gross carry is expected to be approximately £65 million. Upon commencement of commercial production from the Bowland Licences, IGas would be obligated to pay back to INEOS its net share of the carry out of 50% of its net, free cashflow;"Basically IGAS have farmed out for £30m and reduced risk/cost of failure but if there's success the carried work programme is repayable. Not a great deal but perhaps best IGAS could hope for given their precarious finances.

INEOS believes that an indigenous Shale gas industry will transform UK manufacturing, and that we can extract the gas safely and responsibly. We are pleased to have agreed this deal with IGas. INEOS's scale, asset position across the UK, US shale gas expertise, and our expertise in managing oil and gas facilities will be a great match with IGas's existing onshore asset base, and significant exploration and production capability."Jefferies acted as Financial Advisor to IGas on the transaction.

Re: Browne quits Cuadrilla Also see SP headed south today.

Browne quits Cuadrilla Surprised no reaction to this news.As CEO of Cuadrilla and Riverstone Lord Browne (LJB to his mates) tried to influence the shale gas industry in terms of governmental support an an attempt to get planning and other issues sorted out. Take a look at his statements via Riverstone website since 2012.Riverstone owns 40+% of Cuadrilla as does AJ Lucas and yes I know this has nothing directly to do with IGas. But..........LJB has obviously given up trying to resolve these issues from a position of power (and he's still close to the govt) then this has got to be a real disaster, if not the end, for the shale gas industry in the UK. If he can't sort it I don't know who can. He's gone to L1, the Russian company attempting to muscle in to the North Sea.It will also be interesting to see which direction Riverstone go now as they could be rueing the day they took on Cuadrilla and other not-good UK offshore investments.
