Zinger Key Points
  • TotalEnergies sells West of Shetland assets to The Prax Group, pending regulatory approval.

TotalEnergies SE TTE agreed to sell its West of Shetland assets, including several fields, the Shetland Gas Plant, and exploration licenses, to The Prax Group, pending regulatory approval.
