News Amandala newspaper



Princess and Treaty Energy oil and gas exploration area covers 2 million acres



Two major international companies, Princess Group International (through Princess Petroleum Limited in Belize) and Treaty


Energy Corporation, headquartered in Texas, USA, have entered into a joint venture agreement to explore 1.8 million acres of


offshore territory of Belize, just east of the Belize Barrier Reef, and 200,000 acres onshore in the Toledo and Stann Creek Districts.


The prospects and consequences of offshore oil drilling will no doubt spark a fierce debate in Belize, especially in light of valuations


of the reef, which has exceeded a billion dollars in annual worth.


The diagram Amandala has created to demonstrate the concession areas shows that the offshore plot runs right below


Belize’s maritime frontier with Mexico, at the Boca Bacalar Chico, running right, east of Ambergris Caye and its tourist


capital, San Pedro, and right along the highly prized reef system. The concession area also covers a significant portion of the


Turneffe Atoll and the Lighthouse Reef. The plot ends just north-east of Glovers Reef.


The onshore concession blocks cover an area west of Independence and Big Creek, in the east, almost connecting with a separate


plot spanning the Big Falls, San Antonio area in Toledo, north of the high-traffic border village of Jalacte, along the


Belize-Guatemala border.


Director of Petroleum, Andre Cho, told Amandala, when we asked him why not make these reef areas off-limits, that the decision


would be up to Cabinet or policy makers in government to reserve certain areas and make them off-limits to petroleum drilling.


Every square inch of Belize can be parceled out, said Cho, “...up to your backyard.”


Cho noted that any company permitted to explore for petroleum in Belize still has to get the requisite permits from the Forest


Department, the Department of the Environment, and other government entities. The parties would have to apply to DOE for


permits, which may require the company to conduct an environmental impact assessment, Cho also explained.


Prime Minister and Minister of Finance Dean Barrow told Amandala that the time has come to rethink the granting of petroleum


concessions along those environmental lines. The existing concession areas, said Barrow, were inherited from the former


administration. Going forward, said Barrow, government should look at excluding sensitive areas from petroleum concessions.


He added that as companies proceed to work their concessions, they must get the proper permits and environmental clearance.


“Government would use those mechanisms to ensure that nothing happens that is environmentally prejudicial,” he


added.


A Marketwire report coming out of Houston, Texas, on April 22, notes that the partners, Princess Petroleum and Treaty Energy, are


targeting the 10,000 acre bloc in south central Belize for its first well. “This site is located off the Southern Highway, which


provides quick access to ports in Punta Gorda and Belize City,” states the report.


Another Marketwire report published this week points to satellite imagery that the report suggests signals possible hydrocarbon and


methane gas presence.


Says the April 22 report: “Most of the offshore areas in Treaty’s concession area are in shallow water, and many


locations showing hydrocarbon deposits have small formations which make it very economical to drill in terms of offshore drilling


costs.”


Treaty’s announcement furthermore proclaimed, “We believe that this business opportunity has put our company on
