New Oman green iron project eyes mid-2026 FID
MUSCAT: Underscoring its keen interest in setting up a major green iron project in Oman, Singapore-headquartered Meranti Green Steel (MGS) has set its sights on a mid-2026 target for a Final Investment Decision (FID), paving the way for the project's full-scale development. The facility, featuring a 2.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) Hot Briquetted Iron (HBI) plant in its first phase, is proposed to be established at the Special Economic Zone at Duqm (SEZAD). Initially, the project will be powered by a calibrated mix of natural gas and green hydrogen, with the hydrogen share to be ramped up progressively in order to achieve lower-carbon green steel production. In a series of posts this week, Meranti confirmed steady progress on the Duqm project. 'The company plans to make a Final Investment Decision (FID) for the Duqm project by mid-2026, with construction to follow immediately thereafter. 'Commissioning of the facility is scheduled for mid-2029,' it stated. Meranti added: 'Our focus will be on utilising a natural gas/green hydrogen mix in line with Oman's Energy Transition Plan. 'Over time, we will use up to 85% green hydrogen in our processes, reducing CO₂ emissions per ton of steel to below 200kg. 'Discussions with potential green hydrogen suppliers are already underway.' Consistent with its strategy to decouple iron production from steelmaking, part of the low-carbon HBI output from Duqm will be shipped to a proposed green steel mill currently under early development in Rayong, Thailand. That project, with a capacity of 2.5 mtpa, is slated to become the first green flat steel plant in Southeast Asia. The balance of HBI output is intended for European offtakers. Commissioning of the Duqm project is scheduled for mid-2029 Sebastian Langendorf CEO of Meranti Green Steel. Sebastian Langendorf, CEO of Meranti Green Steel, said current market conditions make it logical to decouple iron production from steelmaking. Cost-competitive HBI production can be pursued where natural gas and hydrogen conditions are favourable, while electric arc furnace (EAF)-based steelmaking and downstream processing can be located in or closer to end markets, he noted in an interview with German steel magazine MBI Stahl Monitor. Emphasising the significance of its Duqm investment to its broader strategy, Meranti stated: 'The Oman green iron project plays a pivotal role in Meranti's integrated green steel value chain, supplying sustainable materials for our Thailand steel plant and meeting the growing demand for HBI in Europe. The Oman project will help Meranti achieve its goal of becoming a leader in green steel.' Oman, it further noted, is a 'perfect location for this project due to its competitive energy resources, including cost-effective natural gas and a rapidly advancing green hydrogen ecosystem.' 'The Special Economic Zone at Duqm provides a robust infrastructure for the plant, with industrial land, deep-water port access, and efficient regulatory frameworks that enable fast-track development and global distribution. 'Oman's location also facilitates cost-effective shipping to Meranti's steel plant in Thailand and to European offtakers seeking low-emission HBI, thereby reducing logistics costs and emissions,' the company added.

4th meeting of India-Singapore Joint Working Group discussed bilateral trade, investment ties
New Delhi: The 4th meeting of the India-Singapore joint working group on Trade & Investment (JWGTI) took place at Vanijya Bhawan in New Delhi on Thursday, bringing the two nations together to strengthen economic cooperation and chart future areas of partnership. The meeting was held a day after the 3rd India-Singapore Ministerial Roundtable, underscoring a week of intensive bilateral engagement. According to a Ministry of Commerce & Industry press release, the discussions centred on expanding trade and investment links, identifying priority sectors for alignment, improving logistics and supply chain efficiency, simplifying regulations, and enhancing cross-border trade facilitation. During the meeting, both sides reviewed progress in existing collaborations, including work in the semiconductor sector and the digitalisation of trade processes. They also explored new opportunities in skills development, capacity building, and other emerging industries. The talks were co-chaired by Rajesh Agrawal, Special Secretary, Department of Commerce, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, and Beh Swan Gin, Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Trade and Industry, Singapore. Agrawal noted that the India-Singapore relationship has moved beyond traditional trade frameworks, with ample opportunities for further cooperation still ahead. This year marks significant milestones: the 60th anniversary of diplomatic ties between the two countries and the 20th anniversary of the comprehensive economic cooperation agreement (CECA). Signed in 2005, CECA was India's first comprehensive trade agreement with any country and Singapore's first such pact with a South Asian nation. Singapore remains a key economic partner for India. It is India's largest trading partner within ASEAN, with bilateral trade touching USD 34.26 billion in 2024-25. The island nation is also India's second-largest source of Foreign Direct Investment, contributing USD 163.85 billion (about Rs. 11,24,509.65 crore) in equity inflows between April 2000 and July 2024, accounting for roughly 24 per cent of cumulative FDI inflows. The gathering reaffirmed the shared intent to strengthen economic ties, while setting the stage for further technical discussions and follow-up actions in the coming months.

Oil price structure narrows, premiums fall as supplies rise
LONDON: Premiums for prompt benchmark oil prices globally are falling compared with those in future months on rising output from the Middle East, Latin America and Europe, just as peak summer demand ends, traders and analysts said on Thursday. Easing concerns that the US could impose more sanctions on Russia and further disrupt oil supplies are also weighing on oil prices, they said. The six-month time spreads for Brent futures, US West Texas Intermediate futures and Middle East marker Dubai have narrowed by more than $1 a barrel in backwardation since the start of the month. Backwardation refers to a market structure where prompt prices are higher than those in future months, indicating tight supply. A narrowing of the structure indicates a market view that supplies are expected to rise. "Brent and Dubai time spreads are softening mainly on expectations of incremental OPEC+ supply from September and easing fears of Russian disruption after recent steady flows via both Baltic and Black Sea," said Shohruh Zukhritdinov, a Dubai-based oil trader. "US crude supply remains stable, but refinery runs will gradually decline into the shoulder season, easing prompt tightness," he said. US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet in Alaska on Friday to strike a ceasefire deal in Ukraine. Citi analysts said Brent could land in the low-$60s per barrel area, if there is progress towards a US-Russia deal. RISING SUPPLY, END OF SUMMER Traders are bracing for more supplies after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and their allies, known as OPEC+, agreed to increase September output, just as non-OPEC producers such as Guyana, Brazil and Norway launched new production. Peak oil demand during the Northern Hemisphere summer is also ending, cooling red-hot diesel margins in Europe and reducing the burning of crude for power in Saudi Arabia, the sources said. "We saw a lot of selling in the window, with expectation around crude demand revised down as refinery margins weaken as gasoil/diesel cracks unravel," said Harry Tchilinguirian, group head of research at Onyx Capital Group, referring to physical trade in the North Sea market. Danish wind farm developer Orsted said on Monday it plans a $9.4 billion rights issue citing adverse development in the US offshore wind market. "Now that seasonal demand is going to unwind, and we cannot be sure that China will keep up elevated imports (for stockpiling), so where does the extra Saudi barrels go?" Meanwhile, spot premiums for Middle East benchmarks Dubai and Oman hovered at their lowest in more than a month for October-loading supply. Still, Dubai is relatively stronger than Brent, keeping the price spread between the benchmarks - known as the Exchange of Futures for Swaps - narrow and allowing Atlantic Basin supply to head to Asia. Asian refiners have already snapped up millions of barrels of oil from the United States, Africa and Europe for delivery in September and October. Neil Crosby, analyst at Sparta Commodities, said there is still uncertainty over Russian supply with the world's third-largest oil importer India buying spot cargoes to replace Russian oil in recent weeks. "Some (Russian) Urals will go to China but the story is not over yet and there is still some tail risk over what happens to Russian (oil) that cannot clear which makes the EFS trade short term even trickier than normal," he said. — Reuters
