石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据美国彭博新闻社3月7日麦纳麦/迪拜报道，世界最大的石油出口公司沙特阿拉伯国家石油公司（沙特阿美）将加入页岩革命，计划在本月底前开始生产非常规天然气并开发一个可以与美国德州鹰福特地层相匹敌的气藏。 沙特阿美负责非常规资源的总经理哈立德·阿卜杜勒贾德尔周三（7日）在巴林首都麦纳麦说，沙特阿拉伯来自页岩和其它替代供应品的天然气资源非常巨大。沙特阿拉伯将在3月底前开始北阿拉伯盆地的非常规天然气生产并在今年年底前达到其产量目标。但是他没有透露细节。 哈立德说，沙特阿美还将在南盖瓦尔盆地和Jafurah盆地钻探非常规天然气。Jafurah盆地在规模上与美国第二大页岩气远景区鹰福特盆地的规模类似，但他没有提供Jafurah盆地估计拥有的天然气储量。 总部位于迪拜的咨询公司Qamar能源公司首席执行官罗宾·米尔斯在比较两个盆地时说，这是完全可信的。 李峻 编译自 美国彭博新闻社 原文如下： Saudis seek to tap shale basin rivaling Texas’ Eagle Ford Saudi Aramco, the world’s largest oil exporter, is set to join the shale revolution with plans to start producing unconventional natural gas this month and exploit a deposit that could rival the Eagle Ford formation in Texas.
Saudi Arabia’s gas resources from shale and other alternative supplies are “huge,” Khalid Al Abdulqader, general manager of unconventional resources at Aramco, said Wednesday in Manama, Bahrain. Production at the kingdom’s North Arabia basin will start by the end of March and reach its target by the end of this year, he said, without giving details. Aramco is also drilling for unconventional gas in the South Ghawar and Jafurah basins, he said. Jafurah in eastern Saudi Arabia is similar in size to Eagle Ford, the second-biggest U.S. shale play for gas, Al Abdulqader said, without giving an estimate of the gas contained at Jafurah. “It’s completely believable,” Robin Mills, CEO of Dubai-based consultant Qamar Energy, said of the comparison.
