TotalEnergies' quarterly earnings drop amid market challenges
French oil giant TotalEnergies' adjusted net income fell to $3.6bn (€3.07bn) for the second quarter of 2025 (Q2 2025), down from $4.7bn in the same period last year. The decline was attributed to lower oil and gas prices, which overshadowed gains from increased production and power sales. The company's first-half adjusted net income stood at $7.8bn. Net debt surged by 89% compared to the previous year, reaching $25.9bn. This increase in debt pushed the gearing ratio, including leases, to 22.6%. Despite this, TotalEnergies continued its share buyback programme, extending a $2bn buyback into Q3. CEO Patrick Pouyanne clarified that the company's normalised gearing ratio, which measures debt to equity, stood at 15%, reported Reuters. He assured that this figure would remain stable throughout the year, bolstered by the anticipated $3.5bn in proceeds from the sale of renewable asset stakes and the disposal of mature oil and gas assets in Nigeria, Brazil and other regions. Despite a 14% rise in quarterly profit to $574m in TotalEnergies' integrated power business, this was not enough to counteract weaker performances in other divisions. The refining and chemicals segment saw earnings plummet by 39% from the previous year. The refining margin for converting crude into fuels also dropped by 21% year-on-year (YoY) to $35.3 per tonne (t), although there is an expectation that margins will improve to above $50/t in Q3 due to heightened fuel demand during Europe's summer driving season. The integrated liquefied natural gas (LNG) unit reported a 9.6% decrease in profit YoY and a 20% fall from Q1 2025. The subdued prices and lack of volatility restricted traders' ability to capitalise on price fluctuations. Looking ahead, TotalEnergies forecasts a 3% rise in hydrocarbon production in Q3 compared with the same period last year. Earlier this month, the Government of Mozambique established essential conditions for the revival of TotalEnergies' $20bn LNG project. The project, which was suspended in 2021 because of an insurgency linked to the Islamic State, is now set to resume.

TotalEnergies flags lower oil, gas sales ahead of Q2 results
Lower prices for oil and liquefied natural gas will weigh on French oil major TotalEnergies' second-quarter earnings, even as its hydrocarbon production rose slightly, it said in a trading update on Wednesday. Total's hydrocarbon production in the second quarter of 2025 will show an increase of around 2.5 per cent year-on-year, it said. But a 20 per cent drop in the Brent crude price - from $85 per barrel a year ago to $67.9 per barrel in the second quarter of 2025 - means earnings for upstream will be lower. Crude oil prices fell in the second quarter as OPEC+, made up of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies such as Russia, started to unwind self-imposed production cuts of 2.17 million barrels per day in April. TotalEnergies' shares were up 0.06 per cent at 0923 CET. Jefferies analyst Giacomo Romeo said the earnings preview was in line with consensus expectations. Last week BP flagged lower oil and gas sales, while Shell warned of lower gas trading earnings and a hit to its downstream chemicals business. Total said lower LNG prices and decreased price volatility resulted in its traders earning less than both last quarter and the second quarter of 2024. Downstream sales of refined fuels are expected to be flat compared to a year ago, when they earned $379 million. The integrated power business is expected to bring in between $500 million and $550 million, compared to $506 million a year ago. Refining and chemicals earnings are expected to reflect a slight climb in margins for refining crude over the first half of 2025, but overall Total's refining margin is still down 21 per cent compared to a year ago. The company is due to report second-quarter results on July 24.>

Mozambique paves way for restart of TotalEnergies LNG project: report
Mozambique has created the necessary conditions for the resumption of TotalEnergies' $20bn (R356.03bn) liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in the country, the country's energy minister was quoted as saying by Portuguese news agency Lusa on Monday. TotalEnergies, which halted construction in 2021 after an Islamic State-linked insurgency attack threatened its Afungi site in the north of Mozambique, has said it wants to resume development this summer. TotalEnergies' CEO Patrick Pouyanne met with Mozambique President Daniel Chapo on Thursday to discuss restarting activities after security interventions helped reduce, but not entirely eradicate, insurgent attacks around its base. "It was a meeting with the perspective of restarting activities," Estevao Pale, minister of mineral resources and Energy said at an event in Inhambane province on Monday, referring to the president's meeting last week. "At the government level, all the conditions are being created to allow investors to restart activities as quickly as possible," Lusa quoted Pale as saying. TotalEnergies declined to comment.

Mozambique clears path for $20 billion TotalEnergies LNG project after years of delay
Mozambique has created the conditions needed to restart TotalEnergies' massive $20 billion liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, according to the country's energy minister. Mozambique plans to resume TotalEnergies' $20 billion LNG project after addressing previous security concerns. The project's inception was based on the 2010 discovery of a vast natural gas reserve in Cabo Delgado province. Operations were halted in 2021 due to security threats from insurgent activities in the region. Mozambique has created the conditions needed to restart TotalEnergies' massive $20 billion liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, according to the country's energy minister. The Mozambique LNG project, located in the Cabo Delgado province, was initiated following the 2010 discovery of an extensive natural gas reserve off Mozambique's northern coast. It culminated in a final investment decision of $20bn in 2019. The French energy giant halted work on the project in 2021 following a deadly insurgent attack near its Afungi site in northern Mozambique. The violence, linked to Islamic State militants, forced TotalEnergies to suspend operations over safety concerns, Reuters reported. Now, with security in the region improved, though not fully restored, TotalEnergies is preparing to resume development this summer. Last week, CEO Patrick Pouyanné met with Mozambique's newly elected president, Daniel Chapo, to discuss plans for restarting operations and the progress made in stabilizing the area. In March 2025, the US Export-Import Bank approved a $5 billion (€4.61 billion) loan to support the Mozambique LNG project, a significant financial boost for the long-delayed development.
