We produced a comprehensive Gas Master Plan for Afghanistan (with Sofregaz). This included a comprehensive review of the energy sector, energy balance and pricing, oil and gas reserves, gas market study, gas transmission and distribution networks, economic analysis and tariffs, environmental impact review, sources of financing. Ten years later, the predictions of the Energy Markets / Sofregaz Gas Master Plan were able to be tested against actual outcomes, and they proved to have been the most accurate of all studies made, in terms of recoverable reserves, production rates, downstream demand predictions and infrastructure requirements. We also obtained and interpreted geological resource data from Russia for Afghanistan (the first and only international project to do so).
