(1) Trade payables and accrued expenses relate primarily to development expenditure on the Karish project, with the main contributors being FPSO and subsea construction costs and for drilling activities performed offshore Israel. Trade payables are non-interest bearing.
(2) In December 2016, the Company acquired the Karish and Tanin leases for US\$40 million of upfront consideration plus contingent consideration of US\$108.5 million (paid over 10 equal instalments) bearing interest at an annual rate of 4.6%. On 30 September 2023, the total discounted deferred consideration was US\$41 million (31 December 2022: US\$52million). Refer to Note 16.
(3) This represents the amount payable to Technip in respect of the EPCIC contract. Under this contract, US\$250 million becomes payable nine months following the practical completion date (June 18, 2023), and is payable in eight equal quarterly instalments, bearing no interest. A discount rate of 5.831% has been applied (being the yield rate of the senior secured loan notes, maturing in 2024, at the date of entering into the settlement agreement). The amounts payable to Technip up to 30 September 2024 under this contract are presented as part of trade accounts payable – current.
(4) The contract liability relates to the agreement with Israel Natural Gas Lines ("INGL") for the transfer of title (the "Hand Over") of the near shore and onshore segments of the infrastructure that delivers gas from the Energean Power FPSO into the Israeli national gas transmission grid. The Hand Over became effective in March 2023. Following the Hand Over, INGL is responsible for the operations and maintenance of this part of the infrastructure and the related asset (refer to Note 7) and contract liability was derecognised. The final \$5million consideration is receivable within 12 months of handover and is recognised within other receivable (refer to Note 10).
The fair values of the Group's non-current liabilities measured at amortised cost are considered to approximate their carrying amounts at the reporting date.
The carrying value less any estimated credit adjustments for financial assets and financial liabilities with a maturity of less than one year are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair value of the Group's finance lease obligations is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on the Group's current incremental borrowing rates for similar types and maturities of borrowing and are consequently categorized in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
There were no transfers between fair value levels during the period.
The fair value hierarchy of financial assets and financial liabilities that are not measured at fair value (but fair value disclosure is required) is as follows:
