Chad approves bill to nationalise assets ExxonMobil sold to Savannah Energy

N'DJAMENA, March 29 (Reuters) - Chad's parliament on Wednesday approved a bill to nationalise oil assets and rights acquired last year by Savannah Energy from ExxonMobil's affiliate, Esso Exploration and Production Chad. In December, ExxonMobil closed the sale of its operations in Chad and Cameroon to Africa-focussed oil and gas producer Savannah Energy in a $407 million deal, but the Chadian government challenged the agreement. Out of 175 lawmakers present, 172 backed the law to nationalise the assets - a move Savannah vowed last week to contest.

US to auction Gulf of Mexico oil under climate compromise

The Biden administration will auction oil and gas leases across more than 114,000 square miles (295,000 square kilometers) in the Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday in a sale mandated by last year's climate bill compromise. The online auction — expected to draw interest from major oil companies such as ExxonMobil and Chevron — is the first in more than a year and could further test the loyalty of environmentalists and young voters who backed President Joe Biden in 2020 but were frustrated by this month's approval of the huge Willow drilling project in northern Alaska. Developing the leases for sale in public waters in the Gulf of Mexico could produce more than 1 billion barrels of oil and more than 4 trillion cubic feet (113 billion cubic meters) of natural gas over 50 years, according to a government analysis.

Danish fund to protest against Nordea's climate goals at AGM

Danish pension fund AkademikerPension will not vote in favour of Nordea's chair at the bank's annual general meeting on Thursday, in protest at what the fund described as the bank's "deficient" climate plan. "AkademikerPension believes the wise and responsible thing to do for banks and investors who pride themselves on being in the sustainability forefront is to cut off all financing for companies that expand fossil production," the fund said in a statement.
