Iran’s Options Against Foreign Aggression Include Closing Strait Of Hormuz, Lawmaker Says
Iran could shut the Strait of Hormuz as a way of hitting back against its enemies, a senior lawmaker said on Thursday, though a second member of parliament said this would only happen if Tehran’s vital interests were endangered.
Iran has in the past threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz to traffic in retaliation for Western pressure, and shipping sources said on Wednesday that commercial ships were avoiding Iran’s waters around the strait.
“Iran has numerous options to respond to its enemies and uses such options based on what the situation is,” the semi-official Mehr news agency quoted Behnam Saeedi, a member of the parliament’s National Security Committee presidium as saying.
“Closing the Strait of Hormuz is one of the potential options for Iran,” he said.
Mehr later quoted another lawmaker, Ali Yazdikhah, as saying Iran would continue to allow free shipping in the Strait and in the Gulf so long as its vital national interests were not at risk.
“If the United States officially and operationally enters the war in support of the Zionists (Israel), it is the legitimate right of Iran in view of pressuring the U.S. and Western countries to disrupt their oil trade’s ease of transit,” Yazdikhah said.
President Donald Trump is keeping the world guessing about whether the United States will join Israel’s bombardment of Iranian nuclear sites.
Tehran has so far refrained from closing the Strait because all regional states and many other countries benefit from it, Yazdikhah added.
“It is better than no country supports Israel to confront Iran. Iran’s enemies know well that we have tens of ways to make the Strait of Hormuz unsafe and this option is feasible for us,” the parliamentarian said.
The Strait of Hormuz lies between Oman and Iran and is the primary export route for Gulf producers such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Iraq, and Kuwait.
About 20% of the world’s daily oil consumption — around 18 million barrels — passes through the Strait of Hormuz, which is only about 33 km (21 miles) wide at its narrowest point.

TotalEnergies And QatarEnergy Win Exploration Rights In Algeria’s Ahara Block
French multinational oil and gas company TotalEnergies, jointly with QatarEnergy, has been granted a license to explore the Ahara oil block after a successful 2024 Licensing Bid Round.
The Ahara license covers a large area of approximately 14,900 km², located at the intersection of the prolific Berkine and Illizi Basins.
TotalEnergies will serve as the operator during the exploration and appraisal phases of this license with a 24.5% effective interest, the same share as QatarEnergy (24.5%).
The national company, SONATRACH, will retain a majority interest of 51%, in accordance with Algerian law.
“TotalEnergies is delighted that its joint bid with QatarEnergy has led to the award of the Ahara license, allowing us to write a new chapter in our long-lasting partnership with SONATRACH in exploration in Algeria,” said Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies.

Chinese Firm Secures Key Gas Block In Algeria
Zhongman Petroleum and Natural Gas Group (ZPEC), an independent Shanghai-listed Chinese oil and gas company, has won a licensing contract to explore a natural gas block in central Algeria, the firm has said.
Algeria’s National Agency for the Valorization of Hydrocarbon Resources, ALNAFT, has awarded the Chinese firm an exploration contract for the Zerafa II gas block. ZPEC won the block in competition with French supermajor TotalEnergies and a consortium of two other European oil firms, Italian Eni and Norway’s Equinor, the Chinese company said, as quoted by Reuters. The Zerafa II block is in the southern part of Algeria’s main gas-bearing basin, Gourara-Timimoun. In the same Algerian tender, TotalEnergies and QatarEnergy have secured the Ahara oil and gas license in the country’s first licensing round under a new hydrocarbons law issued in December 2019. The Ahara block spans nearly 14,900 square kilometers at the junction of the Berkine and Illizi basins. The award marks a strategic expansion for both firms in North Africa. TotalEnergies will operate during the exploration and appraisal phases with a 24.5% interest, mirrored by QatarEnergy. Algeria’s national oil company, Sonatrach, holds the majority 51% stake, as required by law. “We are delighted to be awarded the Ahara Block, which marks our first entry into Algeria’s upstream sector and further and expands our footprint in Africa,” QatarEnergy’s president and chief executive officer, Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi, said. Algeria, which joined OPEC in 1969, produces around 900,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil currently. The North African producer is part of the OPEC+ agreement looking to manage oil supply to the market. In recent months, Algeria has been vying to monetize its natural gas resources, especially in exports to Europe, which now has to do without much of the pipeline Russian gas it was consuming before 2022.

GOIL PLC, Ghana’s largest indigenous petroleum downstream player, posted a net profit after tax of GH¢84,698,000 in 2024, representing a 54.82% increase over the previous year’s net profit of GH¢54,706,000.
In 2024, the group generated revenue of GH¢19,348,106,000 compared to GH¢20,606,778,000 in 2023 and paid a dividend per share of 0.056 to shareholders.
Despite making a huge profit after tax, shareholders at the company’s 56th Annual General Meeting in Accra on Thursday voted to maintain the 2023 dividend per share of 0.056 for the year 2024.
Addressing the shareholders, Board Chairman of GOIL PLC Nana Philip Archer highlighted the challenges Ghana’s economy faced in 2024.
He mentioned inflationary pressure and exchange rate instability leading to inflation closing the year at 20.4 per cent and cedi depreciating by 19 per cent against the US dollar.
Despite these challenges, Nana Archer said the company was able to navigate through the storms and made profit due to prudent financial management, strategic marketing and operational efficiency.
He noted that though operating costs increased by 11.12 per cent and finance costs by 20.25 per cent, they were offset by strong revenue generation and disciplined asset management.
He reported that the company’s total consolidated assets grew by 20.1 per cent to GH¢4.8 billion.
Looking ahead, Nana Archer said the company would expand its LPG bottling plants in Tema and Kumasi to 1,200 metric tons to advance the LPG Cylinder Recirculation Model policy.
He added that the company would also deepen market penetration in the aviation and mining sectors, including auto gas segment, and continue with the business automation processes.

Strait Of Hormuz Tensions Drive 60% Surge In Tanker Rates
Tanker rates for the route via the Strait of Hormuz have doubled since Israel started bombing Iran last Friday, the Financial Times has reported, citing shipowners growing reluctance to sail through the chokepoint.
The daily rate for a very large crude carrier chartered from the Gulf of China, for instance, has jumped from $19,998 last Thursday to over $47,600 this week, the publication noted, citing figures from Clarksons Research, a maritime analysis provider. The insurance sector is responding to the situation as well, raising premiums for vessels traversing the Strait of Hormuz by as much as 60%, the FT again reported this week. With the new prices, the insurance of a $100-million ship has jumped from $125,000 to $200,000, the FT said. “We’ve not yet seen a missile fired at a ship in the Arabian Gulf, so what it represents is the market saying, look, there’s definitely a heightened level of concern about the safety of shipping in the region,” the global head of marine and cargo insurance at Marsh McLennan, Marcus Baker, told the FT. Other media reported that insurance for tankers specifically had jumped considerably, too. Safety4Sea cited figures from Xclusiv Shipbrokers showing that the insurance rate per barrel of crude carried by a VLCC from Ras Tanura in eastern Saudi Arabia to Ningbo in eastern China had gone up from $0.25 per barrel last Thursday to some $0.70-0.80 a day later. “Tehran cannot close Hormuz without crippling itself: the new Jask outlet east of the strait has loaded under 300,000 bpd and ran for only a month last year, while almost all of Iran’s 1.7-1.8 mbpd of exports—chiefly to China—still sail from Kharg,” Zclusiv Shipbrokers said. Even so, a closure of the strait remains a possibility despite the potential for an adverse impact on Iranian exports.

South Africa: Africa Must Work Together To Solve Energy Challenge – Ramokgopa
South Africa will continue to work with other African countries in its efforts to achieve an effective energy transition, Minister for Electricity and Energy Dr. Kgosientsho Ramokgopa pledged during a speech at the ongoing Africa Energy Forum in Cape Town.
Addressing participants on the theme “Africa United,” Ramokgopa emphasized the urgent need for the African continent to work together to solve energy challenges, including electricity.
“We will continue to work with the AU, African member states, and development partners to drive a programmatic response and financing instruments to address these structural challenges.”
“Let us begin with the most elementary truth: electricity is not a luxury; it is a fundamental basic human right,” Ramokgopa stated.
“It is the oxygen of economic activity, the lifeblood of industrialization, and the foundation of dignity in the 21st century. Yet today, 600 million of our brothers and sisters remain in the dark.”
The Minister emphasized the need to develop an energy transition that is inclusive and based on the socio-economic conditions of the African continent’s people. Ramokgopa told delegates that it’s time for Africa to create its own energy solutions instead of relying on developed countries.
“We must pursue energy transition pathways that reflect our national and continental context and development priorities,” Ramokgopa said.
“Any transition must be just, inclusive, and grounded in the realities of our socio-economic landscape. It must enable industrialization, support job creation, ensure food security and energy security, and align with the broader objectives of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).”

Ghana: ECG Disconnects Ghana Water Company Ltd’s Head Office From National Grid Over GH¢1bn Debt
The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) on Tuesday disconnected Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) from the national power grid over an outstanding debt of GH¢999.6 million.
The action is part of ECG’s ongoing nationwide revenue mobilization exercise to recover huge sums of money owed to them by their customers.
The exercise, which started on Monday, covers all categories of customers.
The Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) issued a 48-hour ultimatum to GWCL to settle its outstanding debt or risk an extended disconnection of power supply to its main pumping stations, which are crucial for nationwide water distribution.
An official of ECG told this portal that if GWCL fails to settle its debt, they will be compelled to move to their district offices and disconnect them from the national grid.
Shortly after visiting GWCL, the ECG task force proceeded to the premises of the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation (GBC), which was disconnected over an outstanding debt of GH¢8 million.
According to ECG, GBC failed to comply with a structured payment plan previously agreed upon, necessitating the disconnection.

Russia’s Rosatom Wins Bid To Build Kazakhstan’s First Nuclear Power Plant
Russia’s state atomic energy corporation, Rosatom, has been selected after a rigorous process by Kazakhstan’s Atomic Energy Agency to build the country’s first nuclear power plant.
Rosatom was selected as the preferred bidder with its VVER-1200 reactors, beating China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) with its HPR-1000, France’s EDF with its EPR1200, and Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) with its APR-1000/APR-1400.
In a statement announcing the result, Kazakhstan’s Atomic Energy Agency said: “The listed companies submitted a comprehensive package of materials consisting of technical and commercial proposals for the construction of a nuclear power plant in Kazakhstan. These materials included the following information: estimated construction cost, project implementation deadlines, financing models, methods of localisation of equipment and construction works, recommendations for the development of personnel training and scientific and educational potential, opportunities for integration in the nuclear fuel cycle, and issues of social obligations.”
The assessment was carried out based on a methodology developed by the Atomic Energy Agency, Kazakhstan Nuclear Power Plants LLP, and French engineering company Assystem. The evaluation considered the areas highlighted in the statement’s list of materials, as well as nuclear power plant safety and international experience. The analysis was then submitted to the Interdepartmental Commission on the Development of the Atomic Industry.
“It was determined that the most optimal and effective proposals for the construction of a nuclear power plant in Kazakhstan came from the Russian company Rosatom,” with second place taken by CNNC and third place by EDF and KHNP, the agency statement said. “Thus, Rosatom was identified as the leader of the international consortium for the project to build the first nuclear power plant in Kazakhstan.”
Discussions are now taking place on state export funding from the Russian Federation based on the proposals submitted by Rosatom.
In a separate statement, Rosatom’s Director General Alexei Likhachev said: “We welcome Kazakhstan’s decision to begin implementing the nuclear power plant construction project.
VVER-1200 generation 3+ reactors combine time-tested engineering solutions with the latest active and passive protection systems developed in strict compliance with international safety standards.
VVER-1200 reactors are already operating in Russia and abroad – four units in Russia and two units in Belarus, and this technology has also been chosen by our partners in Hungary, Egypt, Turkey, Bangladesh, and China. There is still a lot of work ahead, and we sincerely count on the help and support of the leadership of Russia and Kazakhstan.”
The Atomic Energy Agency of Kazakhstan stated that it would “continue to work with foreign partners to form an effective international consortium to build the country’s first nuclear power plant.”
Agency chairman Almasadam Satkaliyev added: “All prequalified participants included in the shortlist have their own unique technologies. It is planned to sign a separate agreement with the People’s Republic of China on cooperation in the nuclear sector. We want to use Chinese technologies to build another nuclear power plant in Kazakhstan… In general, there are not many countries in the world that can implement a full nuclear cycle on their own. China has the necessary technologies and an industrial and production base. Therefore, our next main priority is cooperation with China.”
“We have agreements at the highest level. We are interested in adopting Chinese experience, and we understand that they can carry out construction quickly and qualitatively. We have already started work in this direction.”
