Former Los Angeles TV news anchor Harold Greene has died, according to a social media post by his daughter, Courtney Greene. He was 82.
"Our beloved husband, father, uncle and friend has signed off for the last time," she wrote in a Facebook post. "It is with heavy hearts that we share the news that Harold passed away last night. My mom and I were by his side, and there was an extraordinary amount of love in the room. We have a feeling he's already settling into the great newsroom in the sky, no doubt with a few suggestions on how things should be run. He was so very loved, and we know he will be missed by many."

Tom Hiddleston has a very special plus-one.
The Golden Globe-winning actor was joined on the red carpet by his fiancée, British actress Zawe Ashton, at a screening for his new film "Tenzing" Thursday, Oct. 1.
Hiddleston, donning a suede navy blue suit and multicolored tie, posed with his partner, who wore a cream two-tiered dress featuring an embroidered pattern.
Hiddleston and Ashton, who went public with their romance in 2021, have previously shared the stage, performing together at a classic literature reading in 2018, followed by back-to-back West End and Broadway revivals of the Harold Pinter play "Betrayal" in 2019.
The couple announced their engagement in 2022, the same year they welcomed their first child together. Ashton gave birth to their second child in 2025.

The New England Patriots may need to address their edge rusher unit after another injury landed on Harold Landry's doorstep to begin the 2026 NFL season.
The Patriots have a productive unit when healthy, led by Landry and Dre'Mont Jones, with rookie Gabe Jacas expected to produce meaningfully for the team. However, more may be needed.
Bleacher Report's Kristopher Knox labeled Maxx Crosby and Kayvon Thibodeaux as being two star edge rushers that the Patriots ought to trade for in 2026, in the event that they pursue a player to fill their needs in the trade market.
"If another team comes calling about Crosby, the Raiders will undoubtedly listen," Knox said. "They're in the early stages of a rebuild and may not be ready to contend while Crosby is still in his playing prime. The asking price will be high, but teams that believe they can chase a Super Bowl are bound to target him before November 10."
Crosby is a superstar edge rusher who has the talent to take New England over the top in the Super Bowl race. Giving up draft picks and a player or two will do the Patriots much good to stack their roster with Drake Maye, A.J. Brown, Christian Gonzalez, Romeo Doubs and Crosby as the heaviest-hitters on their team.

NFL rosters are fluid creatures. Players work their way into key roles while others fade, either due to injury or ineffectiveness. Thanks to the rise of fantasy football, what was once a problem shared by an elite few coaches has been filtered down to the low stakes world of office pools and lowkey, months-long high school reunions.
That creates one of the biggest problems with the fantasy experience; figuring out which players to pull from the dregs of the late draft rounds or free agent pool, and who to give up to bring them aboard. There's no worse feeling than landing what you think is a rising star, only to watch him put up five points each week while the guy you dropped becomes a dominant force for someone else. Not only does that hurt your squad, but also gives the rest of the league leverage to mock your terrible decisions.
That's what we're trying to help you avoid. Welcome to Ladders, USA Today's only fantasy football column/video series co-hosted by a man who willingly calls himself a Rhode Island Scumbag. That's Mike "Yaj" Boyajian, who joins me as FTW's special fantasy ****** yst. Last year, we hit on the rise of guys like Brenton Strange, Christian Watson and Harold Fannin Jr. -- nothing too outrageous, but enough to carry you to a ****** le. We're back at it for 2026.
We've had a few names rise up draft boards and waiver wire bids as teams finalized their 53-man rosters -- enough to split our waiver targets and late-round steals into two parts. Let's start with trending tight ends and running backs before diving into wide receivers in our next breakdown.
The rules? There's pretty much only one; players have to be 33 percent owned or less in Yahoo! fantasy football leagues. We'll also look at each player's average draft position (ADP) in half-PPR leagues thanks to data from Fantasy Pros. Who's been responsible for the most preseason chatter rising up from the bottom of draft guides? Let's start in Los Angeles.

The police chief of a northern Mississippi city where 1-year-old Black child Kohen Wiley was shot and killed by police responding to a shoplifting call was fired Tuesday amid a new controversy.
Senatobia Police Chief Harold Vanderford submitted his resignation the same day, but the city's board of aldermen declined to acknowledge it and instead voted unanimously to fire the chief, according to the city clerk, who did not elaborate on their reasons.
The firing followed reporting by The New York Times, Mississippi Today and Verite News last month that alleged Vanderford used racist slurs in private text conversations with a colleague. It also comes amid the aftermath of the child's shooting and other incidents.
The toddler Wiley was fatally shot and another woman was wounded June 14 after a Senatobia police officer fired into a vehicle while investigating a shoplifting call at a Walmart. The boy's mother, Vellesiya Wiley, denied that she or a friend accompanying her had stolen anything, and no charges have been filed against them.
The officer who shot Wiley and the woman driving the car the child was in has been placed on administrative leave while the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation looks into the shooting.

The marquees for all 41 Broadway theatres will be dimmed in honor of Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, Clive Davis and more stars who've recently passed away.
On Wednesday, the Broadway In Memoriam Committee confirmed the list of late honorees. On Tuesday, Sept. 8, the marquees will dim at 6:45 p.m. ET. Gina Ferrall, Josh Grisetti, Jeff Hamlin, Glen Hansard, Louise Lasser, Anna Louizos, Seth Marquette, Anne Russell, James Walsh and Harold Wheeler will also be honored.
In 2025, the Broadway In Memoriam Committee created a quarterly tradition called Broadway in Memoriam to honor individuals who left their mark on the Great White Way. The mass dimming now takes place four times a year on the second Tuesday of September, December, March and June.
Parton wrote the music and lyrics for the 2009 stage adaptation of "9 to 5," which received four Tony Award nominations, including one for her original score. The singer's second show, "Dolly: A True Original Musical" will begin previews Dec. 7 at the St. James Theatre in New York City with an opening set for Jan. 19, 2027, on what would have been her 81st birthday. Parton announced the Broadway engagement in July.
The production will tell her story through some of her biggest hits, including "Jolene," "Coat of Many Colors," "9 to 5" and "I Will Always Love You," alongside new songs she wrote specifically for the musical. Parton co-wrote the show's book with two-time Emmy winner Maria S. Schlatter. Tony winner Bartlett Sher is directing, with "So You Think You Can Dance" and "La La Land" choreographer Mandy Moore choreographing the production.

Josiah Trotter finished the preseason with an 80.5 defensive grade, the fourth highest among rookie linebackers who played at least 20 snaps. Only Ohio State's Arvell Reese, LSU's Harold Perkins Jr. and Texas Tech's Jack Kelly finished ahead of him.
Against the Jets, Trotter played just 15 defensive snaps but earned an 82.4 PFF grade. He finished with three total tackles without being charged with a missed tackle and earned a 78.1 run defense grade. Trotter attacked downhill, forced runners to change direction, and held up when asked to cover tight ends and running backs. There wasn't much concern about Trotter's ability against the run coming out of Missouri, as he earned an 89.3 run defense grade during his final college season and built his reputation around his instincts and willingness to attack gaps. Coverage was the bigger question after he posted grades below 50 in that area during each of his final two college seasons, but those concerns haven't prevented the Bucs from giving him opportunities.
Trotter started alongside Alex Anzalone when Tampa Bay played its first team defense against Kansas City, another indication that the competition with SirVocea Dennis for a starting role has been legitimate. The rookie has also talked about how quickly the game has started to slow down for him as he's gotten more comfortable in Todd Bowles' defense. Trotter has looked capable of handling more than just early down run defense, which could make it easier for Bowles to declare him a starter come regular season.

Last year's Cleveland Browns offense lacked playmakers who could make things happen after the catch. As a result, the team wasn't very creative or explosive through the air, aside from Harold Fannin Jr., who was fantastic as a rookie after the catch.
General manager Andrew Berry knew this had to change, and that played a part in the team drafting wide receiver KC Concepcion in the first round. Now, with the regular season just around the corner and training camp in the books, Concepcion has been awarded the Maurice Bassett Award by the media for the most outstanding rookie of training camp this year.
Concepcion absolutely deserved this award; you couldn't go to a Browns training camp practice this year without seeing him make several head-turning plays at every practice he was a part of. If the Browns offense is going to be better and more explosive this year, he will play a big part in it improving with his explosiveness and ability to create in the open field.

William Jewell College running back MicahJo Barnett scored a touchdown in the first quarter of the Division II program's season opener against Fort Lewis College in Liberty, Missouri, on Saturday.
Barnett celebrated in the end zone with his teammates, and nothing appeared amiss. Shortly afterward, however, the game was suspended.
"Heartbreaking scene at William Jewell," Fox4 Kansas City's Harold R. Kuntz reported on X. "Play was suspended in the 1st quarter after a player, according to Liberty Fire EMS, suffered seizure-like symptoms. Happened on sideline. Awaiting word on health of player. Prayers to the Jewell Cardinals and their family."
Barnett was rushed to a local hospital, where he was ****** ounced dead, according to the Kansas City Star. William Jewell College also confirmed Barnett's death. In addition to playing on the football team, Barnett was a junior business administration major at Jewell.
"I want to say that we appreciate the response that we received from the sheriff's office, the police department, the EMS department, the physician for the team, everybody responded so quickly, so well," William Jewell College interim president Dr. Dave Van Horn said.

William Jewell announced that junior running back MicahJo Barnett has died. Barnett appeared to suffer a medical emergency on the sideline during the Cardinals' home opener against Fort Lewis on Saturday.
"William Jewell College and the Liberty, Missouri community mourn the passing of Micah Jo Barnett," the school wrote in a statement. "Our thoughts and prayers are with Micah Jo's family, our students, the Cardinal Football family, and the rest of our community during this time of loss."
Per the school, a vigil to honor Barnett will be held Saturday night.
Play was suspended in the first quarter on Saturday after Barnett began suffering from what Liberty Fire EMS called "seizure-like symptoms," via Fox4 KC's Harold R. Kuntz. The game was later called off, with Kuntz reporting that Jewell players were emotional as they left the facility.
Barnett, who is from Liberty and attended Liberty North High School, was majoring in business administration, per the athletic department's website. After playing in eight games as a freshman, he started in five games last season before suffering a season-ending injury. Barnett also received all-Great Lakes Valley Conference academic honors last season.

There's no better feeling in fantasy football than digging a diamond from the mines of the waning rounds of your preseason draft. Watching an underrated rookie thrive or a veteran emerge as a star after years of middling performances can be a league-winning boost -- or it can be the balm needed to heal the burn of, say, drafting Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. in the first and second rounds.
This year's draft will be loaded with late-round talent capable of changing the trajectory of your team. A dearth of tight end and wide receiver help means guys who'll average 15 points per week can be found around the time the first guy in your league gets too drunk to finish things and winds up autodrafting three kickers. Today, I've teamed up with FTW's resident fantasy football expert Mike "Yaj" Boyajian to break down our top 10 sleepers this fall.
Let's break down this year's Round 11 and later sleepers, starting with... whew, buddy, a Cleveland Brown. Surely this won't make us look stupid come December!
No, I don't love leading off with a Brown either. But Cleveland's quarterback situation is a mess. It was in 2025 as well, when a rookie with run after catch ability emerged as the team's top target. Harold Fannin Jr. had an average target distance under six yards downfield, but turned that into 71 catches and 731 yards thanks to 95 yards after catch over expected (YACOE). More than half his output came with the ball already in his hands.
Enter Concepcion, who could supplant Jerry Jeudy at the top of the depth chart should he continue to forget how to play football. The Texas A&M star is a goblin after the catch, boosting his quarterbacks by creating ****** e and picking up first downs. He averaged 7.2 yards after catch per reception last season at Texas A&M. That's exactly what Cleveland needs – and potential balm for your fantasy team if he's around come round 12.

10 years ago, the Atlanta Falcons took the NFL by the blindside, going on a roll through the NFC playoffs and making it all the way to the Super Bowl. While Matt Ryan, Kyle Shanahan and their league-best scoring offense gets most of the credit, Atlanta wouldn't have won the conference without the contributions of four rookie starters on defense.
If the Falcons are going to prove all the negative narratives wrong in 2026, they could definitely use some surprise contributions from their rookie class. It sounds like at least one rookie is in the mix to start on defense.
According to Marc Raimondi at ESPN, the team's fourth-round draft pick, former Oklahoma linebacker Kendal Daniels has a legitimate shot to wind up starting next to Divine Deablo.
"The Falcons have trusted him with the green dot at times this summer because of injuries, and Daniels has a legitimate shot at starting at inside linebacker alongside Divine Deablo."
Daniels has looked impressive during the preseason, establishing a physical style and showing sharp instincts against the run. Daniels may not be the only rookie linebacker to see significant playing time in 2026, though. Here's what Raimondi had to say about sixth-round pick, linebacker Harold Perkins Jr. out of LSU.

Last year was a tough one for top-end tight ends, as both George Kittle, Tucker Kraft and Brock Bowers had injury trouble that derailed their fantasy seasons. That left Tre McBride to pick up the slack, catching a crazy 126 passes to set the NFL record for receptions in a season. At this point there is a real chance all three of those injured stud tight ends might be available for Week 1!
We had some fresh talent infuse the tight end position last season, with three rookies putting up strong numbers. Tyler Warren, Colston Loveland, and Harold Fannin Jr. all proved their fantasy worth and look to build on their strong rookie campaigns. It's nice to have those guys added to what is usually a pretty shallow pool of top fantasy tight ends.
In twelve team leagues that start one tight end, there are often not enough capable fantasy tight ends to go around. This year I'd be happy with eleven of this group being my starter. And since we can wait longer to pick up a TE starter we like, we don't have to waste a second or third round pick on a stud.
Kittle ruptured his Achilles in 2026 and is trying to play in Week 1 of the 2026 season at the age of 33! The odds are stacked against him, but I wouldn't put it past him to have yet another strong year in Kyle Shanahan's offense. We get a discount on him this season, but for good reason.
Kraft was absolutely on fire to start last season, putting up 32 receptions for 489 yards and six touchdowns through seven and a half games. Unfortunately, a torn ACL ended his amazing start. All signs point to him playing in Week 1 and Kraft is only 25 and going into his fourth season. I'm not as worried about him as I am Kittle.

Following the announcement of Braelin Moore being honored as the representative for No. 18, LSU announced that Trey'Dez Green and Whit Weeks will both wear the No. 7 jersey. This is a great honor for both young men on this team.
The No. 18 represents a leader for the team, while the No. 7 represents an undeniable playmaker and mismatch whenever he is on the field. For the first time in the history of the tradition, LSU has announced two new players who will wear the number for the first time.
In 2024, LSU announced for the first time that the No. 7 honor would be represented on both offense and defense, with Will Campbell having received the honor the season before and Harold Perkins being issued the number for the first time. This year will mark the first time that the number has been issued to two new players who will both actually be able to wear No. 7 on the field. Campbell received the honor, but because he was an offensive lineman, he had to wear a No. 7 patch while keeping his traditional jersey number.
Whit Weeks is one of the best linebackers in the country, and when he is on the field, there is very little that he is unable to do. He is also a veteran entering his fourth season and has seen a lot of different offenses across the SEC.
Green is simply a nightmare matchup for defensive coordinators, and what makes him even harder to deal with is pairing him with a play caller like Charlie Weis Jr. The 6-foot-7, 240-pound tight end will not be used solely as a traditional tight end, and the versatility he can display in this offense will make him a difficult matchup for opposing teams to defend.

Will New England Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez play in Saturday's Week 2 preseason matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles?
While the Patriots have not confirmed Gonzalez's status for the game, it is expected that the star defensive back will miss a second straight preseason game.
Gonzalez has not practiced since last Monday, a day before the team's scheduled joint training camp practice with the Indianapolis Colts. Patriots coach Mike Vrabel has noted multiple times that the absence is due to an injury that Gonzalez sustained, despite all of the concerns that it could be contract-related.
"Christian was unavailable, physically unavailable for the practice. That's the clarification," Vrabel stated. "Just like other players that I told to have treatment, and everybody has a plan here, there were other guys that were in that same category. If you want to list the names: Christian Elliss, Brenden Schooler, Harold Landry, Christian Barmore, et cetera. So make sure they're all included. They were all in the same group of what they did."
The Patriots and Gonzalez have continued to work behind the scenes on a potential contract extension.

Florida State senior Jack Whaley is still trying to process what he accomplished last week.
Days after capturing the U.S. Amateur Championship at Merion Golf Club on Aug. 16, Whaley returned to campus as the first Seminole golfer to win the prestigious Havemeyer Trophy and just the third Englishman to claim the ******* le, joining Matt Fitzpatrick (2013) and Harold Hilton (1911).
For Whaley, the victory represents the culmination of years of work and a remarkable rise from the NAIA ranks at Dalton State, where he set the record for shooting 8 under to win the national championship in 2025, to represent the Seminoles on one of amateur golf's biggest stages.
He credited head coach Trey Jones on Aug. 20 for bringing him to Tallahassee and grooming him into an elite golfer.
"It means the most," Whaley said. "For Coach (Trey) Jones and the coaching staff to take a chance on me last year after playing NAIA golf, and now to be sitting in this position, I can't thank them enough. For them to be there with me and experience it, I think it's an incredible memory for all of us, and something we'll cherish forever."

U.S. shale billionaire Harold Hamm is making a multibillion-dollar bet on Argentina's Vaca Muerta, becoming the latest high-profile American investor to target the rapidly expanding shale basin.
Hamm's Continental Resources has agreed to acquire a 50% interest in Phoenix Global Resources, creating an equal joint venture with commodities giant Mercuria Energy Group. The partners plan to invest more than $4 billion over five years and increase Phoenix's production from more than 28,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day to over 100,000 boed.
The combined portfolio will encompass approximately 163,000 net acres across six Vaca Muerta blocks. The proposed transaction remains subject to definitive agreements, closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
Continental is no stranger to the formation. The company entered Argentina last year by acquiring **** ets from Pluspetrol and subsequently bought interests in blocks operated by Pan American Energy. CEO Doug Lawler credited President Javier Milei's economic reforms with helping create the conditions for Continental's latest investment.
Hamm isn't the only American billionaire taking an interest.

A big unknown this season for the Atlanta Falcons is their linebacker unit. Divine Deablo will lead the group, having inherited the green dot role from Kaden Elliss, now back with the New Orleans Saints.
Aside from that, it's difficult to say how this unit will look in 2026.
On paper, Christian Harris looks like the other starter at this position, but that's far from certain. The Falcons do have two promising rookies who may eventually inherit big roles for Atlanta's defense, in Oklahoma's Kendal Daniels and LSU's Harold Perkins.
Daniels and Perkins made their NFL debuts this past Friday night against the Denver Broncos, and Perkins was mic'd up for the occasion. Watch.
Perkins (6-foot-1, 222 pounds) totaled five interceptions, 10 pass breakups, eight forced fumbles, 17 sacks and 220 combined tackles (35.5 for a loss) during his time at LSU.

As in nearly every season since the Cleveland Browns returned to the NFL in 1999, there are questions about the quarterback position, with a camp battle to start the season between veteran Deshaun Watson and second-year player Shedeur Sanders. So far, it seems like Watson might have a leg up on the competition, but in the end, neither one of these two has looked like a franchise quarterback that can lead this team for years to come.
However, one thing that stuck out during the Browns' loss to the Bears in the preseason opener was the weapons around the position, like first-round pick KC Concepcion, who looked like the dynamic difference-making playmaker he was drafted to be.
ESPN ******* yst Mina Kimes agrees with this, saying that she thinks the Browns are just a quarterback away from winning games. Kimes also highlighted Harold Fannin Jr and Quinshon Judkins, who both showed impressive ability as rookies last year despite the rest of the offense around them being terrible.
More likely than not, this season will be about these young players getting experience and developing as the team prepares to draft their quarterback to be the missing piece in next year's draft, unless the team decides to get aggressive and make a move for a quarterback to take a swing on this year via trade.

The quarterback and tight end positions in auctions allow for freedom and creativity in how you approach the position in your draft. Unlike running back and wide receiver ‐ where the pressure to start multiple players creates an entirely different market ‐ quarterbacks and tight ends are "onesie" positions, as they are sometimes known.
Sure, there are only a few elite tight ends and quarterbacks that everyone is chasing, like Brock Bowers and Josh Allen, but there is not the same pressure that builds from scarcity during the auction. Generally, managers feel as though if they lose out on Drake Maye or Jalen Hurts, they can still feel pretty good about pivoting to Dak Prescott or Trevor Lawrence.
The thinking at tight end is similar. To an even greater extent, it lends itself to streaming from the waiver wire during the year. So naturally, managers would rather spend more money to secure that last WR2 than save that money to upgrade from Lawrence to Jayden Daniels or Harold Fannin to Tyler Warren. This depresses prices and provides buying opportunities.
Let us look at the three typical strategies for landing your quarterback and tight end in auctions, and do it through the lens of real pricing from some recent auctions. We have five data points from five auctions spanning June, July, and early August.
Every auction is going to be different, but there are trends we can pull from these prices that tell us a fairly reliable range where we will be able to draft these players in our own leagues. Of course, we all play with different settings and salary caps, but for purposes of this article, we will talk about a $200 cap and mostly be dealing with typical starting lineups using three wide receivers and a flex.

The most debated topic in all of football, or so it seems, is the competition for the Browns quarterback position. Saturday was another step toward answering that question.
In the Browns' preseason loss to the Bears, both players got an opportunity to show where they are. The Bears didn't play any of their starters in the first half, and in the second half, the Browns were down a lot of their depth pieces.
The playing field was never level; even so, there are some important takeaways.
Deshaun Watson was scheduled to get the entire first half, and he got off on a really strong start. After Cleveland went three-and-out in their first possession, the offense opened up.
Watson showed some arm strength, connecting well with KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston. One of his best plays of the first half came on 3rd and four; he checked into a nice man-beating concept and delivered a great throw to Harold Fannin Jr. against the blitz, but Fannin dropped it.

Pets have played a substantial role in the British royal family for centuries.
Queen Elizabeth was famous for her love of corgis, which started when she received a Pembroke Welsh named Susan when she was 18 years old. Susan remained by her side during pivotal moments in her life, including her marriage to Prince Philip, losing her dad and becoming monarch in 1952.
The significance her dog played in her life was highlighted in a note she sent to veterinarian Harold Swann after Susan's death.
"I would like to thank you for all you did for my dear old Susan when she became ill, and for the immense amount of trouble you took in getting her sent to Cambridge and for all the care she had while she was there," the letter read. "I had always dreaded losing her as I had had her since she was six weeks old, but I am ever so thankful that her suffering was so mercifully short."
Queen Elizabeth's corgis are just some of the many important pets of the British royals. Most recently, Kate Middleton and Prince William welcomed an English ******* er spaniel named Otto into their family.

The Atlanta Falcons have a few big question marks on defense as they prepare for their preseason opener next week. With linebacker Jalon Walker officially out for the season due to a torn ACL, and James Pearce Jr. facing a possible suspension, Atlanta's pass rush may have trouble replicating last year's success.
The team has gone through its first seven training camp practices, but there are a few other starting spots on defense that remain unsettled. Billy Bowman Jr. is on the active PUP list as he works his way back from an Achilles injury, while Zach Harrison is on the active non-football injury list.
The Falcons are still working out their nickel rotation, and considering the severity of Bowman's injury, I could see the team being cautious with their projected starter going into Week 1. Even though I believe rookie Avieon Terrell will ultimately play on the outside, it wouldn't surprise me if he fills in for Bowman to start the season.
Harrison is not dealing with as severe of an injury, and I think he could be cleared by Week 1. At linebacker, Divine Deablo is set to wear the green dot, but there's still some uncertainty at the other starting spot.
Christian Harris appears to be the first in line, but don't sleep on rookies Kendal Daniels or Harold Perkins for this spot. With all of that said, here's a look at our projected Week 1 starting lineup for the Falcons defense.

New England Patriots rookie edge rusher Gabe Jacas sent a message to supporters of the franchise after the team's ninth training camp practice of the summer.
According to 98.5 The Sports Hub, Jacas stated before reporters on Tuesday that he is determined to play at the highest level possible in 2026.
"I just want to let all the Patriots fans know that I'm behind everybody and you're going to get the best player out of me each and every game," Jacas said. "And just, anything I can do to help the team win, I'm going to do it, whatever it takes."
Jacas signed his rookie deal with the Patriots on July 26, nearly three months after getting drafted by the Patriots with the No. 55 overall pick on Day 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft. He took the practice field for the first time with the team this summer during training camp.
The 22-year-old is in line to play behind Harold Landry and Dre'Mont Jones on the edge in 2026 as one of the top backups on the team for next season.

Namibia is rapidly emerging as Africa's next major oil producer while neighboring South Africa, which controls roughly two-thirds of the same Orange Basin petroleum province, remains years behind in developing essentially the same petroleum system. The Orange Basin, an offshore deepwater petroleum province spanning the Atlantic maritime border between the two countries, is estimated to contain more than 20 billion barrels of oil equivalent. Yet while Namibia has attracted a succession of world-class discoveries and moved rapidly toward commercial development, South Africa has struggled to translate the same geological opportunity into producing **** ets.
TotalEnergies' (NYSE:TTE) deepwater Venus Project in offshore Namibia now targets an initial production capacity of roughly 150,000 barrels of oil per day, with first oil aimed for 2030. Venus-1X is estimated to contain 1.5 billion barrels of light crude and 4.8 trillion cubic feet of gas. TotalEnergies has also taken over operations of the massive Mopane discovery from Portugal's Galp Energia (OTCPK:GLPEF).
Last month, Shell Plc (NYSE:SHEL) and its JV partners reported a major oil discovery at the Merlin-1X exploration well within Petroleum Exploration Licence 39 (PEL 39). Located in Namibia's Orange Basin roughly 290 kilometers off the coast, the resource has recoverable reserves estimated at 750 million barrels for Phase 1. The success of Merlin-1X marks a critical turnaround for the consortium.
In early 2025, Shell booked a $400 million impairment on its Namibian offshore portfolio following engineering hurdles at older discovery wells with complex geology and high gas-to-oil ratios, including Graff-1X and Jonker-1X. Those challenges had initially slowed commercialization plans, but the Merlin-1X discovery has significantly improved the outlook for the company's Namibian acreage.
