石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社11月20日伦敦报道，两个金融消息来源称，能源生产商NewAge正在寻求出售其在Marine XII石油区块的股份，该油区位于刚果共和国海岸外，NewAge能源集团（该公司以非洲为重点）和意大利埃尼共同拥有该区块的特许经营权。 该消息人士称，该公司已聘请咨询公司Evercore协助进行此次出售，融资最高可达10亿美元。 NewAge在2010年从运营商埃尼那里收购了该油区25%的股份，埃尼拥有65%的股份，刚果国营公司SNPC持有其余的10%。 根据埃尼网站显示，在Marine XII石油区块的Nene Marine油田的产量预计达到每天至少14万桶石油当量。 与中非其他产油国一样，刚果经济也在遭受低原油价格的沉重打击，目前正处于复苏之中，该国的债务超过了90亿美元，超过了国内生产总值(GDP)。这迫使这个非洲国家寻求国际货币基金组织的救助。 刚果的债权人，包括大宗商品贸易公司托克和嘉能可公司，都在寻找该国经济状况好转的迹象。 詹晓晶摘自路透社 原文如下： Africa-focused energy producer NewAge to sell Congo field – sources NewAge is seeking to sell its stake in the Marine XII oil block, a concession off the coast of the Republic of Congo that the Africa-focused energy group jointly owns with Italy’s ENI, two financial sources said. The company has hired advisory firm Evercore to help with the sale that could raise up to $1 billion, the sources said. NewAge acquired 25 percent of Marine XII in 2010 from operator ENI, which owns 65 percent. Congolese state company Societé Nationale des Pétroles du Congo (SNPC) holds the remaining 10 percent. Production at the Nene Marine Field in the Marine XII block is expected to reach a minimum of 140,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day, according to ENI’s website. Like other central African oil producers, Congo’s economy is recovering after being hit hard by low crude oil prices as it struggles under the weight of more than $9 billion in debt, which exceeds its gross domestic product (GDP). That forced the African nation to seek a bailout from the International Monetary Fund. Congo’s creditors, including commodity trading houses Trafigura and Glencore Plc, are looking for signs of an improvement in the country’s economic fortunes.
