Australia: Total takes a stake in four deep offshore exploration blocks

Paris, May 24, 2006 — Total announces the signature of two agreements to participate in the exploration of four offshore blocks situated to the northwest of Australia.

Under the terms of one agreement with the Australian company BHP Billiton, Total takes a 25% interest in the WA-301-P exploration block. BHP Billiton is the operator with a 50% interest and is partnered with the Chinese company CNOOC, also holding a 25% stake.

Total has also signed an agreement with BHP Billiton (operator, 25%) and Kerr-McGee (25%) to take a 25% interest in the exploration blocks WA-303-P, WA-304-P and WA-305-P. CNOOC also holds a 25% stake in these permits.

These four blocks are situated between 300 and 400 kilometres from the shore in water depths ranging from 1,000 to 3,000 metres. Exploration activities are planned starting in 2007.

These new interests illustrate Total’s commitment to continue strengthening its presence in Australia, where it is already conducting exploration operations in four deep offshore blocks.

Earthquake in Indonesia: Total assists victims and donates one million
dollars to the Indonesian Red Cross

Paris, June 1, 2006 — The earthquake that devastated the central region of the island of Java around the city of Yogyakarta killed thousands of people and destroyed several thousand homes, leaving over 100,000 people homeless.

Present in Indonesia for close to 40 years with some 2,000 employees, Total is particularly touched by the event and expresses its full compassion to victims’ families and all Indonesians affected by this tragedy so soon after the tsunami of December 2004.

In the immediate aftermath of the disaster, Total and the Group’s local subsidiary provided logistical support for the emergency team of 40 doctors sent by the French government and have sent a specialised intervention team to support relief workers under the responsibility of the Indonesian Minister of Energy.

Total has also donated one million US dollars to the Indonesian Red Cross to help earthquake victims.

Cameroon: Oil Discovery in the Dissoni Block

Paris, June 1, 2006 — Total announces an oil discovery from the first exploration well drilled in the Dissoni Block in the offshore Rio del Rey basin in Cameroon. The government of Cameroon awarded the block to Total E& P Cameroun, the operator, and Pecten Cameroon Company in April 2005.

The well encountered around 50 metres of oil pay in massive oil bearing sandstone. The promising find demonstrates Dissoni’s potential and should enable a new development plan to be deployed after studies and possible further appraisal.

Less than 18 months after the Bakingili discovery well in October 2004, the latest discovery validates Total’s strategy of capitalizing on its operated acreage in Cameroon, as well as its commitment, alongside its partners and the authorities, to offsetting the natural decline in production from mature fields.

Total has been active in Cameroon for more than 50 years and today operates production of just over 60,000 barrels per day, or around two-thirds of the country’s output, on behalf of its joint venture with Société Nationale des Hydrocarbures and Pecten Cameroon Company.

Inauguration of Euskadour Gas Interconnector between
France and Spain

Paris, June 19, 2006 — The Euskadour pipeline interconnecting the gas grids in the Basque regions of France and Spain was inaugurated today. The ceremony was attended by José Montilla Aguilera, Spain’s Minister of Industry, Tourism and Trade, François Loos, France’s Minister of Industry, and Juan José Ibarretxe, President of the Basque Autonomous Community.

Construction of the pipeline by Total Infrastructures Gaz France (TIGF), a Total subsidiary, and Naturgas Energia began in November 2004 and was completed in late 2005. The 28-kilometer long Euskadour interconnector will initially carry around 500 million cubic metres of natural gas a year on both sides of the Pyrenees, equivalent to the consumption of the French city of Bordeaux.

During the inauguration ceremony, Yves-Louis Darricarrère, President, Total Gas & Power, said: “The interconnector will improve gas service for public distribution companies from Bayonne to Hendaye and will have a direct impact on consumers in the French Basque region. But this infrastructure project is just one of many that Total is developing in southern France to enhance security of supply and seamless operation of the deregulated gas market.”

Total is currently involved in three major gas projects in France, for a total investment of €550 million over the next five years. First, it is taking part in the construction of the new Fos Cavaou LNG terminal, with a capacity of 8.25 billion cubic metres per year. Then, to carry the liquefied natural gas offloaded in Fos, Total will complete the doubling of the Artère de Guyenne pipeline from Lussagnet across the Dordogne River. Last, subject to the necessary administrative approvals, the capacity of the Lussagnet natural gas storage facility will be expanded to 3.5 billion cubic metres from 2.4 billion cubic metres.

Fifty-Five Students from Around the World
Take Part in Total’s First Summer School Session

Paris — July 5, 2006 — From July 2 to 8, Total Corporate University* is hosting 55 students from 11 countries for a weeklong Summer School at which key energy issues and challenges will be analyzed and discussed, with contributions from academics and senior managers from Total.

Developed in cooperation with Total subsidiaries outside France, the program is aimed at students in their junior or senior year at universities in countries where recruitment and hiring represent major challenges for the Group.

Held at Total University’s campus in the Paris region, the first Summer School session brings together 55 students from Nigeria, Indonesia, the United Kingdom, Angola, Italy, Germany, China, the United States, Iran, Bolivia and Argentina.

Some 30 managers from Total, energy specialists and geopolitical experts will moderate discussions, present key energy issues and challenges and share their knowledge of economics, geopolitics, the future of energy, climate change, and corporate social responsibility with the students.

Total Corporate University’s Manager Nathalie Fokart says of the program so far: “The students quickly bonded, overcoming potential barriers such as origin, language and culture. Their diverse backgrounds enrich and stimulate discussions, questions, and viewpoints, and their maturity and thoughtfulness are reflected in the cogency of their questions concerning energy and the role of a company like Total.”

The Summer School program confirms Total’s commitment to making diversity a cornerstone of its human resources policy, a strategy that is supported by forging lasting ties with educators and students in a wide variety of countries.

* Total set up a corporate university in 2005 to provide a forum for analysis and discussion of issues that affect the future of its activities and to strengthen ties with the world of higher education.
