Tuesday, March 12, 2024

While Germany has struggled strategically and politically in its effort to balance its climate change goals with its energy security needs, Austria has not only refrained from turning off the Russian gas taps—opting for a gradual approach--but it's also recently made the country's largest natural gas discovery in 40 years. 

Key Points: 
  • These shallow wells, cheap to drill, from proven, previously drilled holes could translate into quick cash flow for MCF Energy.
  • MCF Energy has adopted a laser focus on Europe's energy security requirements, which is most significantly emphasized by Germany, the largest economy of the European Union.
  • MCF Energy ( MCF.V ; MCFNF.QX ) believes the answer is found in domestic natural gas, the increasingly accepted bridge fuel for a green energy transition.
  • In Europe, where the energy landscape is rapidly evolving, Halliburton's contributions to oil and gas exploration and production are invaluable.
