ExecutiveSummary Executive Summary


The opportunity exists to gain a significant, negotiable interest and operatorship in the Manja 3108 License to develop a GastoPower project for the regional supply of energy to Madagascar. This is thanks to the discovery of gas reserves at the Sikily1 well (southern part of the block). The project requires:
t 1st milestone ( l (prefeasibility f l f b l finalization): ) USD2.5M 2nd milestone (full feasibility): USD10M 3rd milestone (construction and production) USD15M

The current costs simulation demonstrates a power production cost of between 1520 US cents/KWh, whereas the National electricity company Jirama is buying it from other producers at 3767 US cents/KWh. The key benefits of the project to Madagascar are: 1. 2. 2 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Improved supply of energy Significant reduction in cost of energy Improved power distribution Environment friendly (natural gas vs. heavy fuels) Development of regional industries p g Increase in local employment Reduced foreign exchange exposure

NaturalGasPower
Power stations fired by natural gas will be a major part of the futures lowercarbon economy because natural gas is the cleanest fossil fuel available. When used in power generation, gasfired power typically produces 50 percent less carbon dioxide than conventional coalfired plants. Gas fired power plants run with the help of gas turbines, which are similar to airplane engines. Compressed air is forced into combustion chambers, where it mixes with natural gas fuel. The mixture is then burned, making combustion gas. This hot gas expands through the turbine, and its heat energy drives a generator, producing cleaner electricity. Plant fitted with cogeneration technology has an added benefit as some of the steam can be used to supply nearby industry. Supplying h t and power t th lik thi i hi hl energyefficient, cutting overall f l S l i heat d together like this is highly ffi i t tti ll fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions.

EnvironmentFriendly Environment Friendly


(source:www.naturalgas.org)

Natural gas is an extremely important source of energy for reducing pollution and maintaining a clean and healthy environment. In addition to being a domestically abundant and secure source of energy, the use of natural gas also offers a number of environmental benefits over other sources of energy, particularly other fossil fuels. As well as providing an efficient competitively priced fuel for the generation efficient, of electricity, the increased use of natural gas allows for the improvement in the emissions profile of the electric generation industry. Essentially, electric generation and industrial applications that require energy, particularly for heating, use the combustion of fossil fuels for that energy. Because of its clean burning nature, the use of natural gas wherever possible, either in conjunction with other fossil fuels, or instead of them, can help to reduce the emission of harmful pollutants. p p
