“With these two divestments over the last couple of months, TotalEnergies effectively exits the Canadian oil sands, focusing our allocation of capital to oil & gas assets with low breakeven. The company has hence received more than US$4 billion from these sales during the fourth quarter 2023, out of which, as previously announced, US$1.5 billion will be shared with shareholders as buybacks in 2023”, said Jean-Pierre Sbraire, Chief Financial Officer of TotalEnergies.
