Iran-US deal draft contains Hormuz pledge: State TV
Iran-US deal draft contains Hormuz pledge: State TV
London, 27 May (Argus) — A draft agreement to end the war between the US and Iran includes a pledge from Tehran to return the number of commercial ships passing the strait of Hormuz to pre-war levels within a month, Iranian state television reported today. Crude futures fell sharply after the report, with front-month Ice Brent approaching $94/bl, the lowest intraday level since 21 April. Prices subsequently regained some ground, with Ice Brent down by around 4pc as of 13:45 GMT. Broadcaster IRIB said it had seen a "first draft" of a 14-point agreement that said "managing the passage of ships… and receiving fees for services remains at the discretion of [Iran], which will work in co-operation with Oman". In return, IRIB said the US has pledged to lift the maritime blockade on Iran, and has agreed to "make a commitment" on the issue of its military presence in countries neighbouring Iran. Details of the latter agreement are unclear. None of this has been confirmed by the governments in Tehran or Washington, although US president Donald Trump on 23 May said an agreement with Iran to reopen the strait of Hormuz has been "largely negotiated". Today's IRIB report contains no mention of agreement on other key issues, like Iran's nuclear programme, or on the repatriation of funds to Tehran.

Union pauses strikes at Australia’s Ichthys LNG: Update
Union pauses strikes at Australia’s Ichthys LNG: Update
Adds statement from Inpex in paragraph 4 Sydney, 26 May (Argus) — The Offshore Alliance (OA) union will halt strikes planned for the 9.3mn t/yr Inpex-operated Ichthys LNG project for two days from 27 May due to advances in negotiations. Strike action planned for 27 and 28 May will be paused due to progress made in bargaining talks, an OA spokesperson said today. Staff at the project, which drills gas in the offshore Browse basin in the Timor Sea and pipes it to the city of Darwin for liquefaction, had planned to start striking from 27 May , protesting what the OA said was slow progress on pay and conditions agreements. The firm is actively engaging in good faith in the interest-based bargaining process, focusing on maintaining safe operations at Ichthys and reaching a fair and equitable agreement with employees, Inpex' senior vice-president Bill Townsend said in a statement. Japanese companies hold around 5.9mn t/yr of publicly disclosed long-term supply deals for the project , which can also produce 1.65mn t/yr of LPG and about 100,000 b/d of condensate at peak rates.

Adnoc CEO sees long road back from war disruption
Adnoc CEO sees long road back from war disruption
London, 20 May (Argus) — The disruptions to energy supplies caused by the US-Israel war with Iran may not fully resolve until the middle of 2027, even if the conflict ends soon, Abu Dhabi state-owned Adnoc's chief executive Sultan al-Jaber has said. "Even if this conflict ends tomorrow, it will take at least four months to get back to 80pc of pre-conflict flows and full flows will not return before the first or even second quarter of 2027," al-Jaber told an Atlantic Council event. For the UAE's operations, he said damage and costs are still being assessed. "The time it will take to get back to full operational capacity… is case by case," he said. "Some will take several weeks and some will take several months." The UAE has borne the brunt of Iranian attacks in the 2½ months since the US and Israel began the war, with al-Jaber acknowledging today damage to Adnoc infrastructure and facilities. Iran has also effectively closed the strait of Hormuz, leading the UAE to seek alternative routes to market for its energy products. Al-Jaber said a new crude pipeline to the port of Fujairah, outside Hormuz, is "more than 50pc complete". "Energy security is no longer about your ability to continue to produce," al-Jaber said today. "It is about routes, storage and redundancy. Too much of the world's energy still moves through too few chokepoints." He said if Iran manages to retain control of Hormuz, "then freedom of navigation is finished". "If we don't defend this principle today, we will spend the next decade defending against the consequences," he said. Al-Jaber also called for the energy sector to address "underinvestment". "Upstream investment is around $400bn a year, which barely offset natural decline rates; global spare capacity is around 3mn b/d, it should be closer to 5mn b/d," he said. "We have 30-35 days of effective cover [in inventory] we need to at least double that." He reiterated that the UAE's recent decision to quit Opec was driven by a desire for greater flexibility . "We didn't move away from something, we moved towards something," he said. "We're moving toward a world that needs more energy, with demand for oil staying way above 100mn bl into 2040s, the world needs more of what the UAE produces."
