Update: Market Chatter: France Mulls Potential Tax on TotalEnergies' Excess Q1 Profits as Energy Prices Climb

France has not ruled out a potential exceptional tax on TotalEnergies (TTE) to redistribute excess profits earned by the French energy giant, amid soaring global energy prices, the country's Budget Minister David Amiel told Bloomberg in an interview on Sunday.Speaking with France's Radio J, Amiel said that "there is no taboo" around implementing such a tax, but added that, at least for now, the most effective way to ease pressure on household budgets was by "capping fuel prices at the pump."This comes following a strong Q1 performance by the company, prompting a boost to its dividends and stock buybacks, even as it struggles with disruption to its operations in the Persian Gulf.TotalEnergies CEO, Patrick Pouyanne, had warned last month that any such surcharge by the French government would lead to the company bringing an end to fuel price caps at its stations.While no decision has been made, Amiel said that "when there are exceptional profits, there should be exceptional redistribution," adding that while France was lucky to have Total, the company was just as lucky to have France.TotalEnergies responded to' request for comment, making reference to its May 7 statement which said that it was a private company and was taxed for its corporate business in France accordingly.Taxing the company for its overseas operations, it said, would equate "to ignoring the reality of international oil taxation and introducing double taxation, contrary to the principle of tax territoriality, a principle that the European Union and France consistently uphold in the international order,".(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.

Argentina to Grant Tax Benefits to Attract $25 Billion to Vaca Muerta Oil Project

Argentina will include the LLL Oil project, located in the country's Vaca Muerta shale area, in its RIGI incentive program, offering tax benefits and guarantees to attract $25 billion in investment, Horacio Marin, CEO of state oil company YPF said on Linkedin on Friday.Marin said the project was the largest ever included under RIGI and the country's largest-ever export-focused oil project.The YPF-owned project will generate more than $100 billion in export revenue over its lifetime, Marin said. Export revenue is estimated at $6 billion per year from 2032 from 240,000 barrels of daily output drawn from 1,152 wells."For years we said that Vaca Muerta was going to change the story of Argentine energy. Today we're entering this phase," Marin said."What lies ahead in the next two years is unprecedented. We will achieve it with passion and with our people who go the extra mile every day to turn huge challenges into concrete results," he said."We are building a company and an industry of world class."A Bloomberg article on the development said that the company would likely need to attract significant capital from banks and other companies most likely outside the country.It noted that the country has achieved a jump in oil output in recent years after this was stymied by years of regulatory shifts. However, it said that major international oil companies have given the country a wide berth of late.TotalEnergies (TTE), Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Equinor (EQNR) have all divested since President Javier Milei took office more than two years ago, Bloomberg noted.

Update: Market Chatter: US Defense Department Delays 165 Onshore Wind Projects

(Updates with DoD comments in paragraphs 7, 8 and 9)The US Department of Defense has stalled about 165 onshore wind projects on private lands, with a combined capacity of around 30 gigawatts, due to national security concerns, the Financial Times reported Monday, citing the American Clean Power Association and other sources.The move demonstrates US President Donald Trump's broadening campaign against renewable energy. Trump has described wind projects as the "worst form of energy" and reportedly said his goal was "to not let any windmill be built."In March, Axios reported that at least 30 projects, which had completed negotiations, were awaiting signoff from the department.Developers and consultants cited by the Financial Times said the number of projects facing approval delays has now risen, with another 30 having completed negotiations and received verbal signoffs, about 50 under negotiations, and a further 50 supposed to have been tagged "risk-free" based on previous process that typically takes only a few days to complete.Sources told the newspaper that project developers have faced setbacks since August 2025, including a lack of response from DoD, cancellations of meetings to discuss project status, and the termination of application processes.In early April, the department reportedly sent letters to developers saying it was reviewing its processes for determining the impact of energy projects on national security. The agency needs to approve wind projects to ensure they do not interfere with radar systems and do not pose risks to army facilities and flight paths, the newspaper said.The DoD's Siting Clearinghouse "is actively evaluating land-based wind energy projects to ensure they do not impair national security or military operations," a department official toldin a statement.Congress had directed the DoD to establish the clearinghouse and to develop a comprehensive review strategy, due to the "changing nature of national security considerations involved," the official said.He also highlighted that "the department's role in evaluating energy development proposals, particularly wind turbines, is inherently complex and time-consuming because it involves balancing two critical, and sometimes competing, interests: (1) developing energy sources, (2) while ensuring military operations and readiness are not degraded or impaired to the extent an unacceptable risk to national security is created."has reached out to American Clean Power seeking feedback.Also citing national security concerns, the Trump administration had issued stop work orders on several offshore wind projects and other renewable energy developments on federal lands, although federal courts reversed some of these actions.To increase supply of fossil fuels, the US Department of the Interior in March had agreed with TotalEnergies (TTE) to redirect an almost $1 billion investment in US offshore wind to liquefied natural gas by reimbursing the company's expenses on offshore wind leases.(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.

Market Chatter: BP Explores Sale of UK North Sea Assets Under New CEO's Disposal Drive

BP (BP) is reviewing its presence in the UK North Sea and considering a sale of part or all of its operations in the basin, as the energy giant seeks to streamline its portfolio and slash debt, Bloomberg reported on Friday, citing industry sources.The company is conducting an internal review of its UK upstream operations, with a full divestment of its remaining oil and gas assets in the region projected to fetch about 2 billion British pounds ($2.7 billion).The review is ongoing, and no final decision has been made on whether to proceed with a divestment, the report said.The London-listed energy firm remains one of the few oil majors still operating in the aging basin. Its evaluation comes as rivals continue to exit or scale back their presence in the region.Chevron (CVX) and ConocoPhillips (COP) recently sold off their North Sea assets, while Shell (SHEL), Exxon Mobil (XOM), and TotalEnergies (TTE) have moved to restructure or divest portions of their holdings, often through joint venture agreements.BP did not respond to' request for comments.BP has reduced its footprint in the UK North Sea over the past decade, including by selling its stake in the Shearwater field to Shell and divesting the Forties pipeline system to Ineos Group Holdings.The oil firm retains a 45% interest in the Clair field, the largest oilfield on the UK Continental Shelf.Plans to dispose of additional assets could rank among the first strategic moves under CEO Meg O'Neill, who took the helm in April as the company's first external appointee.O'Neill and Chairman Albert Manifold vowed to address years of underperformance, which have drawn pressure from activist investor Elliott Investment Management and led to the departure of former CEO Murray Auchincloss.(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.
