Communication from the Minister for National Development of Hungary pursuant to Article 3(2) of Directive 94/22/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the conditions for granting and using authorisations for the prospection, exploration and production of hydrocarbons

(2018/C 218/07)

PUBLIC INVITATION TO TENDER FOR A CONCESSION FOR THE PROSPECTION, EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION OF HYDROCARBON UNDER CONCESSION IN THE TARD AREA

On behalf of the Hungarian State, the Minister for National Development (‘the Contracting Authority’ or ‘the Minister’), as the minister responsible for mining and for overseeing state-owned assets, hereby issues a public invitation to tender for the prospection, exploration and production of hydrocarbon under a concession contract on the basis of Act CXCVI of 2011 on national assets (‘the National Assets Act’), Act XVI of 1991 on concessions (‘the Concessions Act’) and Act XLVIII of 1993 on mining (‘the Mining Act’), subject to the following conditions.

The Minister will publish the invitation to tender, adjudge the bids and conclude the concession contract in cooperation with the Hungarian Mining and Geological Service (MBFSZ) in accordance with the Concessions Act and the Mining Act. Bids that meet the tender specifications will be evaluated by an Evaluation Committee set up by the Minister.

On the recommendation of the Evaluation Committee the Minister will issue the decision awarding the concession, on the basis of which the Minister may then conclude the concession contract with the successful bidder in accordance with Section 5(1) of the Concessions Act (1).

The language of the tendering procedure is Hungarian.

Participation in the tendering procedure is open to any Hungarian or foreign natural person and to any transparent organisation within the meaning of the National Assets Act, provided they meet the tender specifications; joint bids are also permitted. In the case of joint bids for this concession activity, the bidders must designate one of their number as representative, but assume joint and several liability for performance of the concession contract. Domestic and foreign bidders will be treated on an equal footing under the tendering procedure.

For the purpose of carrying out the activity subject to concession, using its own resources the bidder signing the concession contract (‘the Concession Holder’) must, within 90 days of the concession contract entering into force, set up a company with its registered office in Hungary (‘the Concession Company’); the Concession Holder must hold the majority of the shares, business interests and voting rights in the company at the time it is set up and for as long as it is operating, and must, as owner, undertake to enforce the requirements specified in the concession contract within the Concession Company. The Concession Company will enjoy the rights and be subject to the obligations under the concession contract as a mining operator.

Duration of the concession: 20 years from the entry into force of the concession contract; the original duration may be extended once without a further call for tenders for a maximum of half of its original duration if the Concession Holder and Concession Company have complied with all their obligations in accordance with the contract and on time.

Overburden of area designated for concession: surface and bedrock: 5 000 metres below Baltic Sea level

Areas cleared to make way for a mine site established for hydrocarbon mineral resources are not included in the area designated for concession.

The corner point coordinates delimiting the area designated for concession can be viewed in the Uniform National Projection System, while data on the areas cleared to make way for mine sites established for hydrocarbon mineral resources, which are not included in the area designated for concession, can be viewed on the website of the Hungarian Mining and Geological Service (www.mbfsz.gov.hu) by clicking on the ‘Koncesszió’ (‘Concessions’) drop-down menu, and on the website of the Ministry of National Development (www.kormany.hu/hu/nemzeti-fejlesztesi-miniszterium).

Size of area designated for concession: 1 271,76 km2.

Areas of mine sites whose overburden is located higher than the overburden of the area designated for concession and whose bedrock corresponds to or extends below the bedrock of the area designated for concession are not included in the area designated for concession.

Minimum net concession fee: HUF 315 000 000 (three hundred and fifteen million forint) plus VAT, but a bid for a larger fixed amount may be entered in the tendering procedure. Once the result is published, the successful bidder must pay the concession fee in the amount, in the manner and by the date specified in the concession contract.

Participation in the concession tendering procedure is subject to payment of a participation fee of HUF 10 000 000 (ten million forint) plus VAT; this amount is to be paid in the manner specified in the Tender Document.

In addition to paying the participation fee, for their bid to be valid bidders must lodge a tendering security of HUF 50 000 000 (fifty million forint) by the day preceding the deadline for submitting bids as a guarantee that the bid is binding. The tendering security paid will be forfeited to the Contracting Authority if the bidder withdraws or if the bidder is successful but then fails to conclude the contract or fails to pay the concession fee offered, in the amount, in the manner and by the deadline stipulated in the contract. The tendering security is to be paid in the manner specified in the Tender Document.

The lowest rate of the mining royalty payable for conventional hydrocarbon production on the basis of the concession contract will be 16 % in accordance with the decision of the Minister; a bid for a higher mining royalty may be entered in the tendering procedure, which if agreed is recorded in the concession contract and must be paid for the duration of the concession. The cases specified in Section 20(3)(e) and (i) and Section 20(5) of the Mining Act are exceptions, where the prevailing mining royalty rate specified in the Mining Act shall apply.

The legal, financial, technical and other conditions and information relating to the tendering procedure can be found in the Tender Document.

15.

The Minister reserves the right to declare the concession tender procedure unsuccessful. No claims arising from the tender procedure being declared unsuccessful may be lodged against the Minister, the Hungarian State represented by the Minister, or the Ministry of National Development as the Minister’s place of work.

16.

The successful bidder will acquire the exclusive right for the prospection, exploration and production of hydrocarbon in the area designated for concession for the duration of the concession through the Concession Company mandatorily set up for that purpose. Once the decision establishing the mining site becomes final, the concession right for the prospection area will be restricted to the area of the mining site.

17.

Each bidder may submit only a single bid.

18.

Assessment criteria relating to the content of the Programme of Research Work subject to concession:

—	professional merits of the Programme of Research Work (programme design aiming for maximum prospection of hydrocarbon),

—	the planned duration of the research,

—	the financial commitment undertaken when implementing the Programme of Research Work,

—	how up-to-date the envisaged technical solutions are,

—	the measures envisaged for protecting the environment and preventing and reducing damage in the course of the work subject to concession,

—	how soon commencement of production is envisaged (by law, within less than five years).

II)

Assessment criteria relating to the bidder’s ability to perform the concession contract:

—	the bidder’s financial standing, the availability of the resources needed to finance the work to be performed under the concession, and the proportion of this accounted for by own resources,

—	the total value of work performed in connection with hydrocarbon mining in the three years preceding the invitation to tender.

21.

The concession contract

The concession contract is to be concluded within 90 days following the announcement of the result. This time limit may be extended by the Minister once only by a maximum of 60 days.

The successful bidder is entitled to carry out the exclusive state-controlled economic activity (prospection, exploration and production of hydrocarbon in a delimited area) permitted under the concession for the duration of the concession in accordance with the relevant legislation and the concession contract.

When submitting the bid, bidders must take account of Section 22/A(13) of the Mining Act, which states that in the case of hydrocarbons a mining operator’s prospection right or prospection permit may cover a total of no more than 15 000 km2 of prospection territory. When establishing the prospection territory, account must also be taken of the prospection territory of the mining operator that controls – within the meaning of the Civil Code – the mining operator wishing to obtain the prospection right or prospection permit. In the case of joint bids, each of the bidders must meet this criterion individually.

The draft concession contract is annexed to the Tender Document.

22.

Further to the UN decision referred to in paragraph 2, the Commission has adopted Regulation (EU) 2018/888 (2), which amends Annex I to Council Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 of 27 May 2002 imposing certain specific restrictive measures directed against certain persons and entities associated with the ISIL (Da'esh) and Al-Qaida organisations (3). The amendment, made pursuant to Article 7(1)(a) and 7a(1) of Regulation (EC) No 881/2002, adds the names of Myrna Ajijul Mabanza and Abdulpatta Escalon Abubaka to the list in Annex I of that Regulation (‘Annex I’).

The following measures of Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 apply to the individuals and entities included in Annex I:

(1)

the freezing of all funds and economic resources belonging to the individuals and entities concerned, or owned or held by them, and the prohibition (on everyone) on making funds and economic resources available to any of the individuals and entities concerned or for their benefit, whether directly or indirectly (Articles 2 and 2a); and

(2)	the prohibition on granting, selling, supplying or transferring technical advice, assistance or training related to military activities to any of the individuals and entities concerned, whether directly or indirectly (Article 3).

Article 7a of Regulation (EC) No 881/2002 provides for a review process where observations on the grounds for listing are submitted by those listed.
