To be the owners of the biggest gas project in the EU, at a time when the former biggest supplier is threatening, once again, to cut supply off, is perhaps an enviable situation to be in, in our view. The contracts have been signed, construction has begun, and the drilling rig has arrived. However, we still need to wait until 2027E for completion, and the partners are boosting their capital expenditure to record levels. While the future is being constructed, the past continues to fade, with both...

Key Message The company reported a clean CCS operating profit of RON 1,379 mn, marking a 15% decline YoY and a 11% decrease quarter-over-quarter. The decline was primarily driven by the weak performance of the Gas & Power segment due to lower sales, higher gas storage obligations, and a decreased refining indicator margin in the R&M segment, partially offset by higher hydrocarbon prices, increased refined product sales, and higher retail and commercial margins in R&M.

OMV Petrom held a capital markets day (CMD) on 19 June, to update its 2030E strategy and provide new targets to the market. The previous strategy update was held at the end of 2021, when the macro environment was less favourable. In this plan, therefore, the assumptions on crude oil and gas prices, and refining margins, have all been revised upwards. The 2030E target for Clean CCS EBIT has decreased slightly to EUR 1.4bn, from EUR 1.5bn, but expectations for the interim period are much higher. C...
