https://www.technavio.com/report/underwater-exploration-robots-market-industry-analysis

The market is driven by the increasing offshore E&P programs. In addition, the emergence of swarm intelligence is anticipated to boost the growth of the Underwater Exploration Robots Market.

The increasing need to explore petroleum-based energy sources by the oil and gas industry has propelled the demand for technologies suitable for hostile offshore and subsea environments. The demand for underwater exploration robots for such environments is high, as they are hard to reach and require advanced hardware and software to operate. Moreover, E&P activities involve various serious challenges related to health, safety, and environment (HSE), which further boosts the demand for underwater exploration robots. The past few years have seen an overhaul in the upstream business of companies in the industry. As the industry recovers, more stakeholders in the oil and gas industry will invest in search, recovery, and production of crude oil and natural gas through the drilling of exploratory wells. Thus, the increasing offshore E&P programs will drive the growth of the market.

  • The joint venture, which currently includes ten projects for around 30 MW of capacity, is dedicated to operating and developing battery storage projects in Ontario, Canada
  • Ardian Infrastructure holds 80% of the partnership, while Enel X holds the remaining 20% and will continue to manage the operations and maintenance of all projects as well as the development of future projects

ROME--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Enel X, the Enel Group’s advanced energy services business line, and Ardian, a world-leading private investment house, have entered into a joint venture to manage Enel X’s battery storage projects in Canada and support the acceleration of the development of similar projects in the country.


Battery storage systems represent a key element in the transition towards a decarbonized energy system as they facilitate the flexibility and stability of grids, and we are committed to empowering customers to help drive the shift towards these technologies,” said Francesco Venturini, CEO of Enel X. “This partnership with Ardian Infrastructure represents an important step that will further support the expansion of innovative energy efficiency solutions in the North American market. In partnering with Ardian we are combining our financial strength and Enel X’s industry expertise to create even more value for our customers and further accelerate our growth in the region.”

This investment bolsters Ardian’s position as a leading player in the sustainable energy sector across the Americas,” said Stefano Mion, Senior Managing Director and co-head of Ardian Infrastructure US. “This latest partnership, our first in Canada, marks an important step forward as we diversify our sustainable energy portfolio into the rapidly growing battery storage sector. Behind-the-meter battery storage is a compelling component of the sustainable energy ecosystem as it allows users to store electricity when it is least expensive and consume it when costs from the grid are most expensive. We are excited to partner with Enel X on the opportunity to accelerate the joint venture’s growth, initially in Canada but longer term across the Americas.

Under the agreement, a dedicated vehicle company, 80% owned by Ardian Infrastructure and 20% by Enel X, has been constituted to manage the battery storage projects in Canada currently included in the joint venture for around 30 MW of capacity. The battery storage portfolio is composed of ten asset locations throughout Ontario and includes two separate 10 MW/20 MWh projects expected to reach commercial operations in 2021. Through the partnership, Enel X will continue to construct, operate, and maintain these projects and will be responsible for the development of future projects.

The partnership with Ardian is in line with Enel X’s commitment to foster the deployment of cutting-edge energy service solutions for commercial and industrial (C&I) clients, leveraging on the company’s offering of integrated services to end customers. All of Enel X’s storage projects utilize the company’s Distributed Energy Resources (DER) Optimization software that has the unique capability to maximize the earnings potential across multiple use cases, such as demand and energy management programs. Through the financial support of Ardian, the platform will enable C&I customers to deploy state-of-the-art energy storage equipment, aimed at making power consumption and infrastructure more efficient.

The deal is part of Ardian’s ongoing commitment to invest in new technology and clean energy assets with the aim to create a more sustainable energy market and address climate change, as outlined in its most recent Augmented Infrastructure report. With 50 employees across eight offices throughout the Americas and Europe, the Ardian Infrastructure team is a world leading Infrastructure Fund Manager focused on the energy and transportation sectors.

The company has approximately 4.7 GW of demand response capacity and over 70 behind-the-meter storage projects in operation or under contract. Enel X’s intelligent DER Optimization Software is designed to analyze real-time energy and utility bill data, improve performance, and manage distributed energy assets across a number of different value streams and applications.

CANONSBURG, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#ETRN--Equitrans Midstream Corporation (NYSE: ETRN) management and board of directors, today, released a statement regarding a contract dispute and the related attempt by EQT Corporation (EQT) and its financial advisor to market ETRN’s Hammerhead pipeline.


The Hammerhead gathering header pipeline, with a total capacity of 1.6 Bcf per day, was completed and injected with initial line-pack provided by EQT in July 2020 and was placed in-service effective August 1, 2020. EQT has a 1.2 Bcf per day firm capacity commitment on the Hammerhead pipeline, which provides access to the Texas Eastern Transmission and Dominion Transmission pipelines, as well as an interconnect to the Mountain Valley Pipeline.

“It has recently come to our attention that EQT has a mistaken belief that the Hammerhead pipeline is not in-service under the terms of its agreement; and, on that basis, that EQT believes it may terminate the gathering agreement and take title to the Hammerhead pipeline in exchange for a reimbursement payment. EQT, acting through its financial advisor, has attempted to market ETRN’s Hammerhead pipeline, which action constitutes unlawful conduct.

ETRN has demanded that EQT and its advisor immediately cease marketing ETRN’s pipeline. To ETRN’s knowledge they have not done so. We firmly believe, and have communicated to EQT, that EQT lacks any valid basis for its actions and that any attempt by EQT to terminate the Hammerhead gathering agreement and to acquire (or potentially sell) the Hammerhead pipeline is contrary to law. ETRN will continue to enforce its rights under the Hammerhead gathering agreement in full.

ETRN gathers the overwhelming majority of EQT’s production. Given the scope of our business relationship, ETRN and EQT periodically have disputes and disagreements and most often amicably resolve them. While we disagree with EQT’s actions, ETRN remains committed to pursuing a resolution to this dispute. ETRN’s duty, first and foremost, is to its shareholders, and ETRN will firmly pursue all available legal avenues or remedies to protect its investment in the Hammerhead pipeline.”

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#ButaneMarket--The butane market is expected to grow by USD 13.22 billion during 2020-2024. The report also provides the market impact and new opportunities created due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect the impact to be significant in the first quarter but gradually lessen in subsequent quarters – with a limited impact on the full-year economic growth.

LPG is a cleaner alternative to conventional fuels such as petrol and diesel as it contains comparatively simpler hydrocarbon compounds. LPG offers similar efficiency and better mileage than petrol vehicles for the same volume of fuel. Also, LPG is free from additives such as lead and has very low sulfur content. Moreover, vehicles that run on LPG have comparatively lower maintenance costs due to the cleaner burning of the fuel. Many such benefits are increasing the use of LPG as an automotive fuel, which is contributing to the growth of the global butane market.

As per Technavio, the increasing demand for LPG in APAC will have a positive impact on the market and contribute to its growth significantly over the forecast period. This research report also analyzes other significant trends and market drivers that will influence market growth over 2020-2024.

Butane Market: Increasing Demand for LPG in APAC

The rising number of petrochemical units such as propane dehydrogenation units, alkylation units, mixed dehydrogenation, steam crackers, and isomerization units has increased the use of LPG in APAC. In addition, the rising competition from the US LPG exporters is prompting exporters in the Middle East to strengthen the existing deals with major importers in the region. For instance, India has signed a contract with Iran to import LPG to meet the growing domestic demand for cooking fuel. Similarly, the growing demand from propane dehydrogenation (PDH) plants has significantly increased LPG imports in China. Therefore, the increasing import of LPG in APAC is expected to fuel the growth of the global butane market during the forecast period.

“Less stringent regulations in North America and the increasing number of strategic alliances will further boost market growth during the forecast period”, says a senior analyst at Technavio.

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Genesis Energy, L.P. (NYSE:GEL) intends herewith to provide an update on its offshore operations, following Hurricane Laura, as well as disclose the receipt of some $41 million in cash that will also be accounted for as an increase in reported Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter.


Turning first to the offshore, there is no apparent damage to our 100% owned and operated Cameron Highway Oil Pipeline System (“CHOPS”) nor any of its appurtenant facilities. As currently configured, the CHOPS pipeline goes up and over a junction platform located in Garden Banks block 72, where it can receive pigs and launch pigs for proper maintenance of two of its 30 inch diameter pipeline segments. That platform, located in 520 feet of water, recorded waves in the 70-80 foot range and sustained winds in excess of 130 mph as the eye of Laura passed some 17 miles to the southwest of its location. The platform experienced damage to its topside facilities which is usual and customary, and not significant nor unexpected, after experiencing those type of weather conditions. Below the waterline, through diving and remotely operated vehicle inspections, several areas of structural stress have been identified that will require further investigation and analysis. As a result, no oil is currently flowing through the CHOPS pipeline.

Grant Sims, CEO of Genesis Energy, said, “We are aggressively working to collect data and conduct a rigorous structural analysis for review by the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement to hopefully be able to re-occupy the platform, conduct the cleanup tasks required and return the CHOPS pipeline to normal operations. Based upon continuing data collection, observations and analysis, it would appear that CHOPS is more than likely not going to be in a position to resume operations before October 1 at the earliest.

However, we have been successful, to date, in working with shippers to divert all available and affected CHOPS barrels into our 64% owned and operated Poseidon Oil Pipeline for deliveries by it directly to shore or for Poseidon to deliver barrels into the Auger Pipeline for further transportation to shore via this alternative path. Because of the rate structures amongst the various pipelines, we expect minimal revenue impact to Genesis during this period of interrupted operations of CHOPS, other than when the volumes were shut in for the storm, and assuming the continuing conditions that there is enough available capacity on Poseidon and/or Auger to receive and transport all of the affected CHOPS volumes.

We would expect to incur total expenses associated with inspections, analyses and topside facility repairs in the range of $3-5 million, most of which will be reflected in the third quarter. Any potential costs associated with structural reinforcement or modification, either to the platform or pipeline facilities, will be treated as capital in future periods.

We are working diligently and as hard as possible to determine what it will take to return CHOPS to normal service as soon as we can, while never losing sight of our commitment to safe and responsible operations.

Shifting gears a bit, I would like to also take this opportunity to disclose that we have received approximately $41 million in cash that will be recognized as Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter for covenant compliance purposes, all as more fully described in our senior secured credit agreement. The cash received is associated with the exercise of a letter of credit we had issued to us as beneficiary from a customer that defaulted under a twenty year term agreement entered into in 2008. The dollars collected from such contractual right will be credited to dollars owed us under the last years of the contract. Under the mechanics of said agreement, we will continue to be paid the dollars owed to us.

Having already received this cash and being able to recognize it as increased Adjusted EBITDA this quarter is a positive development for us under the circumstances. Accordingly, we see no scenarios where we have the risk of not comfortably living within all of our financial covenants as we deal with the aftermath of this hurricane season and the Covid-19 pandemic which has directly and indirectly challenged our businesses, like virtually all others, but which are clearly recovering and looking forward to better things in 2021.”

Genesis Energy, L.P. is a diversified midstream energy master limited partnership headquartered in Houston, Texas. Genesis’ operations include offshore pipeline transportation, sodium minerals and sulfur services, marine transportation and onshore facilities and transportation. Genesis’ operations are primarily located in the Gulf Coast region of the United States, Wyoming and the Gulf of Mexico.

This operations and commercial update includes forward-looking statements as defined under federal law. Although we believe that our expectations are based upon reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our goals will be achieved. Actual results may vary materially. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this operations and commercial update that address activities, events or developments that we expect, believe or anticipate will or may occur in the future, including but not limited to statements relating to future financial and operating results, the impact of Hurricane Laura and the associated timing and costs, the COVID-19 pandemic, and our strategy and plans, are forward-looking statements, and historical performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance. Those forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future events and are subject to a number of uncertainties, factors and risks, many of which are outside our control, that could cause results to differ materially from those expected by management. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, weather, political, economic and market conditions, including a decline in the price and market demand for products, the outbreak or continued spread of disease, and other uncertainties that are described more fully in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and other filings, including our Current Reports on Form 8-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement.

Approaching 1GW of flexible supply Supporting the U.K.’s Energy Transition towards Net Zero

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners (‘Quinbrook’), a specialist investor in lower carbon and renewable energy infrastructure, today announced further progress just two years into its ongoing investment campaign aimed at helping drive the United Kingdom’s energy transition toward net zero emissions of greenhouse gases by investing in infrastructure supporting energy security, ongoing economic recovery and job creation following COVID-19.


Over the past 24 months, Quinbrook has developed, constructed and agreed to acquire the following assets spanning flexible generation, grid support infrastructure and demand response capability:

  • Over 300MW of flexible reserve capacity either in operations or under construction across 21 sites in Scotland, England and Wales, with the ability to be dispatched on call from National Grid, the high-voltage electric power transmission network serving Great Britain
  • Commencement of construction of the first new Synchronous Condenser to be built in the U.K. under National Grid’s Pathfinder program. The condenser, to be located in Wales, is expected to provide critical support services to stabilise the grid as older baseload coal, gas and nuclear plants are retired and intermittent renewables capacity increases
  • Flexitricity, a first mover in a very small group of demand-response operators in Great Britain. Flexitricity has been an innovative market participant for over 10 years addressing customer demand management as decarbonization accelerates, creating real cost savings for energy consumers whilst also enhancing grid support during periods of system stress and higher power prices. The Flexitricity virtual power plant consists of an aggregated 540MW of distributed flexible energy from a wide range of different assets owned by customers across Great Britain
  • A diversified portfolio of distributed renewable gas projects located at 30 sites in Scotland, England and Wales, many of which are intended to be converted to solar and battery storage. Once converted, these project sites are expected to deliver measurable benefits to local communities and distributed power networks, further improving grid stability and reliability

Quinbrook plans to commit significant capital to the U.K. energy sector over the coming years, using its experience from prior investments in the U.S. and Australia spanning utility and distributed scale solar and battery storage, Virtual Power Plants and Community Energy Networks to develop and construct innovative and impactful infrastructure designed to aid the U.K. economic recovery.

Quinbrook’s UK investments to date are consistent with the U.K. Government’s policies to create a smarter, more resilient and flexible power system in the U.K. that enables the Net Zero transition to progress and achieve the significant carbon emissions reductions required from the energy sector. Last year, the U.K. government became the first major economy in the world to pass laws aimed at ending its contribution to global warming by 2050. This target requires the U.K. to bring all greenhouse gas emissions to Net Zero by 2050, compared with the previous target of at least 80% reduction from 1990 levels.

This commitment is projected to increase the country’s number of “green collar jobs” to approximately 2 million and boost the value of exports from the low carbon economy to £170 billion a year by 2030.

The U.K. is undergoing a real and fundamental transformation of its energy system and we want to be at the forefront of where the U.K. industry is heading, not where it’s been,” said Rory Quinlan, co-founder and managing partner of Quinbrook. “By supporting the U.K. grid in managing the challenges presented by massive scale-up in intermittent wind and solar, we can deliver high-impact investments that enable even more renewables capacity to be built and carbon emissions abated. This is the only way the U.K.’s success to-date in decarbonizing its power sector can continue at the rapid pace needed.”

These are sustainable investments in the purest sense, creating and preserving jobs in local communities across the U.K., reducing carbon emissions, helping the U.K. grid manage more zero emissions renewables without risk of blackouts and stimulating U.K. manufacturing. We are creating real and measurable ESG impact with the deployment of our investors’ capital and measurably supporting key United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, across climate action, creating sustainable cities and communities, affordable clean energy, innovative infrastructure, job creation and economic growth,” said Quinlan.
