France's Total scours Australia for acquisitions January 16, 2012 - 11:07AM
Read later.Cashed-up French energy giant Total is scouring Australia for acquisition opportunities as part of an aggressive expansion of its gas strategy, a report says.
It follows an announcement on Friday that Total will join with Japanese oil and gas producer Inpex to invest in the $34 billion Ichthys LNG gas project off northern Australia.
Inpex will take a 72.8 per cent stake while Total will hold 24 per cent.

"Australia is a core asset and is part of our future. If tomorrow we have the opportunity to find another Ichthys, we have the money to invest and develop it alone."
Guillermou said acquisitions could involve individual assets in gas, including shale gas, or takeovers, with the company expecting to spend up to $14 billion in Australia over the next five years.
