Gas Project Resurrected on New Citic Deal
Gas project resurrected on new CITIC deal
Editor: From: miningnews Click?52 Date: 2009-01-07 10:42:17
CITIC Pacific says it has signed a new contract for the supply of gas to its Sino Iron magnetite project in the Pilbara from the Apache and Santos Reindeer gas field, even though development of the field was delayed late last year.
Santos and Apache, who are jointly developing the field, announced in December the development of Reindeer had been suspended due to the impact of the global financial crisis on the project’s foundation customer.
CITIC was suggested by media reports as being the foundation customer, but in a statement last night it said only that it had signed a new contract for seven years, with gas supply to start in the second half of 2011.
The gas will go towards the power needs of its Sino Iron project in the Pilbara, where the company is building a 450MW power station.
The company – owned by a Hong Kong listed trading house and miner, which is in turn owned by a Chinese(cnmining) state-backed firm – is looking to export around 27.7 million tonnes of magnetite product each year.
At the end of the December, CITIC said it has received amendments to its State Agreement Act from the WA government, meaning it can now produce and export cheaper to produce magnetite concentrate as well as pellets.
It is not yet known what percentage of pellets to magnetite the project will produce.
CITIC has been hit hard by the current global financial turmoil and in late December it received shareholder approval for a $US1.5 billion ($A2.07 billion) bailout plan from its Chinese parent company CITIC Group.
The bailout is needed after its Hong Kong branch lost around $US2.4 billion on currency hedging contracts. Under the deal, CITIC Pacific will issue a convertible bond to CITIC Group, which will then own a 57.6% stake in the company, up from 29.4%.
The deferral of Reindeer and another gas field, Devil Creek, also led to the termination of a $A390 million Clough’s engineering, procurement and construction contract to develop the Devil Creek processing facilities and for the installation of the offshore facilities for Reindeer.

In by gone days all a contractor had to do was give the customer good quality and good service and he/she would be set. Then set back and let your customers do your selling for you. They would tell a friend and then that friend would tell a friend. Your phone would be ringing off the hook. I remember as an Architectural designer some days I would have up to four people wanting to schedule appointments for designs. Those days are long gone! But Fear Not! Click Here For Help
