TOTALENERGIES SE: Argentina: Production Start-Up at Fenix Offshore Gas Field
TotalEnergies announces the start of production from the Fenix gas field, located 60 km off the coast of Tierra del Fuego in Southern Argentina. The field is part of the Cuenca Marina Austral 1 (CMA-1) concession, where TotalEnergies holds a 37.5% operated interest. With a production capacity of 10 million cubic meters per day (70,000 boe/d), Fenix features a new unmanned platform connected to existing CMA-1 facilities.
The gas is processed onshore at the Río Cullen and Cañadon Alfa facilities. Fenix is characterized as a low cost, low emissions development, with a carbon intensity of 9 kg CO2e/boe. The project was completed safely and ahead of schedule, just two years after the final investment decision. TotalEnergies, operating in Argentina since 1978, is the country's leading international gas producer, operating about 25% of production. The company's equity share of production averaged 88,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day in 2023.

The start-up of the Fenix gas field is a significant development for TotalEnergies' operations in Argentina. With a production capacity of
The Fenix gas field start-up strengthens TotalEnergies' position in Argentina's energy sector. As the country's leading international gas producer, responsible for
The Fenix gas field's carbon intensity of 9 kg CO2e/boe is impressively low, showcasing TotalEnergies' commitment to reducing environmental impact. This aligns with global efforts to transition to lower-emission energy sources. The use of an unmanned platform and existing infrastructure minimizes additional environmental disruption. However, it's important to consider the broader implications of continued fossil fuel extraction. While natural gas is often seen as a transition fuel, its long-term role in a low-carbon future remains debated. Investors should monitor how this project fits into TotalEnergies' overall strategy for adapting to climate change regulations and market shifts towards renewable energy sources.
