Everyone in the industry worries about natural gas production falling because that means more imports and higher prices for gas users and for electricity users. So why does it continue to decline?
Colombia’s energy transition is colliding with regional economics, as a new report by the National Federation of Coal Producers (Fenalcarbón) and the Regional Center for Energy Studies (CREE) warned that an accelerated coal phase-down could trigger severe social and fiscal shocks in mining territories.
Arrow Exploration Corp. (TSXV: AXL) reported its second quarter 2025 financial and operational results.
At the 2nd Offshore Caribbean Forum: Energy and Progress, Ecopetrol’s General Manager for Offshore and Exploration, Elsa Jaimes, outlined the regulatory, technical, and institutional challenges Colombia must address to advance natural gas exploration and production in the Caribbean Sea.
The Colombian Ministry of Finance (MinHacienda) proposed tax reforms that would significantly increase the fiscal load on the hydrocarbons and mining-energy sectors, aligning with the government’s push for renewable energy transition.
Recent developments in Colombia highlight growing discontent among mining communities and labor unions over the government’s energy transition agenda, particularly its stance on coal production and exports in La Guajira and Cesar.
Gas imports in Colombia fell last month in both absolute and relative terms but that does not mean the issue has gone away.
