| Brighton, United Kingdom | | 2008-06-27 22:19:00 | | I have been to the United Kingdom several times, and each time I step my foot there, there's even more to see and discover. UK is a beautiful country, and what I love most about this magical kingdom is their countrysides. They are just breath taking. My last trip to UK was about a year back, and that time round, I visited cities and counties I haven't visited before. One of them is Brighton.Recorded as the tiny fishing village of Brithelmeston in the Domesday Book, BRIGHTON seems to have slipped unnoticed through history until the mid-eighteenth-century sea-bathing trend established a resort that has never looked back. The fad received royal approval in the 1770s when the decadent Prince Regent, later George IV, began patronizing the town in the company of his mistress, thus setting a precedent for the "dirty weekend", Brighton's major contribution to the English collective consciousness. Trying to shake off this blowsy reputation, Brighton now highlights its Georgian charm, its upmark... | | By: Vision, Adventures, Dreams and Life | | |

Although the amendment...

| | | | UNITED KINGDOM: Hutton warns on politicisation of energy supplies | | 2007-12-19 05:47:04 | | Britain needs to produce more home-grown energy to end its vulnerability to supplies suddenly being denied from abroad, the business secretary, John Hutton, warns today.In a franker recognition of the problem than the government has offered in the past, Hutton says that the United Kingdom cannot be indifferent to the "inevitable politicisation of energy" as it moves from being a net exporter to a net importer. This means accepting new nuclear power stations as well as greater use of renewables.The government has no target but Hutton wants most of Britain's energy to be provided from inside the country, aides said."Climate change and soaring energy demand are combining to create a 'perfect storm' during the next half century. A storm in which access to secure and competitively priced energy is likely to become the major political headache in capitals across the world," Hutton says in a speech at a UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) energy event in London.

| | | | | | UNITED KINGDOM: BG Group Second-Quarter Net Income Rises 13% on LNG | | 2007-07-27 16:51:00 | | BG Group Plc, the U.K.'s third-largest natural-gas producer, said second-quarter profit rose 13 percent, helped by higher shipping volumes and prices of gas delivered to the U.S. Net income climbed to 471 million pounds ($962 million) from 418 million pounds a year earlier, the Reading, U.K.-based company said today in a statement. That's higher than the median estimate of 389.5 million pounds from six analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. BG, the largest supplier of liquefied natural gas to the U.S., expanded its LNG division to take advantage of increased demand for energy. It delivered its first gas cargo from Equatorial Guinea to the U.S. last month and also signed an agreement to build and supply Chile's first LNG import terminal. ``They had good results in all their divisions except for exploration and production,'' said Richard Griffith, an analyst at Evolution Securities Ltd. in London. ``They've achieved higher volumes and ... | | By: energy BLOG | | |

| | | | | | | UNITED KINGDOM: UK oil production falls below 1.4 million bpd | | 2007-07-03 19:37:00 | | The year-on-year decline in Britain's oil and gas production in the North Sea continued through April despite near-record investment, according to the latest monthly report by the Royal Bank of Scotland published Monday. Oil production fell to below an average of 1.4 million barrels per day (bpd), over 12 per cent less than in April last year. Gas was also down 3.2 per cent on the year to 8,170 million standard cubic feet per day (mmcfd). The UK's continental shelf "is maturing rapidly and an increasing share of investment spending is needed just to maintain current production levels," the bank said. "Recent production data provide mounting evidence that the long- term decline of the North Sea will not come to a halt," it said about the production, which has been falling since 2000. Despite the fall, the average daily value of oil rose due to rising prices to Pnds 81.76 m, its highest level in year, when production was nearly 200,000 bpd more. In January, the Royal Bank of Scotla... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | UNITED KINGDOM: Oil will grow on trees in BPs latest biofuel joint venture | | 2007-07-03 04:38:00 | | BP has set up a venture with biodiesel firm D1 Oils to increase planting of jatropha, an oilseed tree that produces an inedible vegetable oil used to make biofuel.This is the second such deal that BP has signed within days. On Tuesday, it joined forces with Associated British Foods to build a £200m biofuels plant in Hull.BP will put in an initial £31.75m, while D1 will incorporate its planting business and the trees it has planted to date. The venture requires £80m in funding over five years, and the rest of the money will be put in on a 50-50 basis.News of the link came as Grain, a charity that promotes the sustainable management and use of agricultural biodiversity, warned that the stampede into biofuels was "causing enormous environmental and social damage". Their report said hundreds of thousands of indigenous people and peasant communities in developing countries were being thrown off their land as biofuel firms needed more and more space for their crops.Elliott Mannis, chief e... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | UNITED KINGDOM: Falling Energy Costs Are A Gas For U.K. Consumers | | 2007-06-16 17:30:00 | | A price war among the leading British energy suppliers heated up on Friday following the introduction of promised cuts in gas and electricity bills from Scottish Power and EDF Energy. But with rival British Gas already undercutting the new prices, is it a case of too little too late? Scottish Power, owned by Iberdrola (other-otc: IBDRY - news - people )of Spain, is bringing into effect gas price reductions of up to 16.5% and electricity price cuts of up to 5.5%. EDF Energy, a subsidiary of Electricite de France (other-otc: ECIFF - news - people ), is only slashing gas bills by 10.2%; electricity prices remain the same.The two suppliers announced the cuts on April 30, a week after energy regulator Ofgem told their customers that they were being overcharged relative to the market. "A big price gap has opened up leaving EDF Energy and Scottish Power customers paying over £100 for remaining loyal," said Ofge... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | UNITED KINGDOM: Opec vows to keep output steady as crude hits $71 | | 2007-06-08 13:27:00 | | Oil climbed above $71 a barrel yesterday, nearing a nine-month high, after Opec president reiterated the exporter group was pumping enough crude to satisfy world markets. Mohammed Al Hamli said oil supplies were "sufficient currently" and there was no need for an emergency meeting. Consumers have been urging the 12-member group to produce more oil to lower prices. London Brent crude, currently seen as a better gauge of the global market than US oil, was up 12 cents at $71.14 a barrel. US crude was up 91 cents at $66.87. "The market is reacting to the Opec president saying the group has no intention of raising output," said Nauman Barakat, senior vice president at Macquarie Futures USA. Data showing US refiners were struggling to boost summer petrol production and Cyclone Gonu's disruption of Omani oil and gas exports also kept Brent crude within sight of late May's $71.80 high. Weekly US inventory data showing a surprise drop in refinery utilisation rates last week added to gains, o... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | UNITED KINGDOM: Oil steadies above $70 | | 2007-06-06 00:31:00 | | Oil pulled back slightly but remained above $70 on Tuesday as a powerful cyclone reached the coastline of Oman and shut its oil and gas export terminals.The storm, the worst to hit Oman in 30 years, began lashing eastern coastal areas on Tuesday morning. Thousands of people have evacuated Masirah Island in the Arabian Sea. The country's 650,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude exports have stopped, a shipping agent said, but supplies from Saudi Arabia, the world's top oil exporter, were expected to escape disruption.At 1308 GMT London Brent crude, currently seen as the most reliable indicator of the global market, was down 17 cents at $70.23 a barrel.Oil surged $1.33 on Monday on news the storm was headed for the energy-rich Gulf. At one stage it was equivalent to a maximum-force Category Five hurricane and the market disruptions to shipping and production.US light crude fell 50 cents to $65.71."Cyclone Gonu is heading to the Gulf of Oman, forcing the evacuation of offshore rigs. Yet m... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | UNITED KINGDOM: Oil surges to $70 as cyclone nears Gulf | | 2007-06-05 15:58:00 | | Oil surged above $70 yesterday on news a cyclone was headed toward the Arabian peninsula with the potential to disrupt shipping and output. Top exporter Saudi Arabia said it expected its oil facilities to escape unscathed from the gathering storm. Fellow Opec member the UAE also appeared to be outside the path of the storm, a shipping agent said. Oman put its army and police on high alert, however, and warned the population of very high waves when winds of up to 205km per hour reached land. In London, Brent North Sea crude for July delivery soared $1.33 to settle at $70.40 per barrel. New York's main oil futures contract, light sweet crude for delivery in July, closed up a hefty $1.13 at $66.21 per barrel. "Prices have turned around on news of a major tropical storm that has the potential to interrupt oil shipments from the Gulf," said Addison Armstrong of TFS Energy Futures in the US. Oman produces just 715,000 barrels per day of oil, a small fraction of Saudi Arabia's almost 9 mil... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | UNITED KINGDOM: Oil Companies Gave Investors $118 Billion in 2006, Moody's Says | | 2007-06-04 07:05:00 | | Oil companies including Exxon Mobil Corp., Royal Dutch Shell Plc and Chevron Corp. returned a total of $118 billion to shareholders last year, according to Moody's Investors Service. The 16 integrated oil companies assessed by Moody's distributed ``generous'' returns amid rising global energy prices, analysts for the New York-based credit rating agency led by Philipp Lotter said in a report released today. ``We expect growth in dividends to continue,'' they said. Oil producers gaining from rising oil and natural-gas prices are rewarding investors with higher dividends and stock buybacks as state-run competitors block their access to new deposits. Exxon, Chevron and Shell all reported record profits last year as concern that supplies from the Middle East and Africa would fall short pushed up oil prices. Exxon posted a profit of $39.5 billion, while Shell's net income of $25.4 billion and Chevron's $17.1 billion were also all-... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | UNITED KINGDOM: UK oil production continues decline | | 2007-06-02 05:45:00 | | The year-on-year decline in oil and gas production in the UK sector of the North Sea is continuing its decline, dropping by a further combined 10 per cent in March, according to the latest monthly report by the Royal Bank of Scotland.Oil production was down 5 per cent on the month at 1,403,005 barrels per day (bpd) and down 14 per cent on the year, while natural gas output production decreased 3 per cent and 6 per cent respectively to 8,581 million standard cubic feet per day (mmcfd).The bank said that decline, which started in 2000, was continuing despite near-record investment in 2006. It suggested that increased drilling activity, the underlying long-term fall in production was "unlikely to be reversed." Despite the fall-back, the provisional average value of combined production in March reached Pnds 81.29 million (Dlrs 160 m), the highest in more than a year due to a resurgence in prices.But unlike some forecast, the report suggested that crude oil prices could be expected to moder... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
| | UNITED KINGDOM: Government dilutes stake in British Energy to fund nuclear clean-up | | 2007-05-31 11:06:00 | | The government said yesterday it was selling a £2.2bn stake in nuclear power generator British Energy as the company announced a sharp rise in profits and its first dividend since a state-backed rescue operation in 2002.Under an accelerated sale process which began yesterday morning and closes this afternoon, 400m shares are being offered to institutional investors.The sale will cut the government's 64% stake, acquired at the time of the 2002 bail-out, to 39% but the Department of Trade and Industry said it was committed to keeping a holding of at least 29.9%.Trade and industry secretary Alistair Darling said the money raised from the sale of the stake would be used to help finance the clean-up of British Energy sites as existing nuclear plants are closed down.British Energy is already looking at potential partners to develop its existing sites for new nuclear generation and said yesterday that it had been surprised at the extent of the interest which had been generated.The decision ... | | By: energy BLOG | | |
