The last week or so was topsy-turvy for Colombian gas with Ecopetrol announcing “the presence of gas” in the Shell-operated Glaucus-1 well but Canacol announcing it had thrown-in-the-towel on its deal with EPM and the associated pipeline connecting Medellin and Jobo. The Canadian E&P simultaneously announced it was limiting its Colombian CAPEX to projects which leverage “existing transportation capacity” and focusing its future-oriented investments on Bolivia. The Canacol announcement will, no doubt, dominate the coffee and cocktail conversations at this week’s Cumbre de Petróleo, Gas y Energía in Cartagena.
