中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯 乌克兰周四发起了一轮具有里程碑意义的国际招标,争取在全国大约30个许可区进行勘探,因为基辅(Kiev)希望提高国内天然气产量,减少对进口的依赖。 乌克兰国家地质局表示,在招标的第一阶段将提供10个区域,有关各方从星期四开始申请为期90天。 第一次拍卖将于明年3月6日举行,剩下的20个区域将在之后进行拍卖。 在过去的25年中,乌克兰的天然气产量一直稳定在200亿立方米/年左右,但在其陆上地区(无论是常规资源还是非常规资源)以及黑海都有巨大的未开发潜力。 乌克兰在寻求在国内生产更多天然气的同时,也希望取消进口天然气,这些天然气目前都来自欧洲,因为基辅在2015年11月停止了直接从俄罗斯购买天然气。 基辅希望在未来几年实现天然气自给自足—提高生产水平以满足目前大约280亿立方米/年的天然气需求。 但乌克兰近年来一直努力吸引国际投资者进入其上游地区,尤其是由于该国东部地区持续的冲突。 像雪佛龙和壳牌这样的国际公司在20世纪10年代初来到乌克兰,试图开发乌克兰的非传统天然气资源,但是没有留下。 俄罗斯扣押了三艘乌克兰海军舰艇后,莫斯科和基辅之间的紧张局势最近升级,这也可能使投资者不愿在该国占地。 尽管如此,乌克兰正在推进招标工作,前10个区域占地1810平方公里,将于3月通过公共交易平台ProZorro.Sale拍卖。 在之前向该国上游公司授予的合同被指控有不法行为之后,因此决定使用开放式电子平台,以确保全面透明度。 王磊 摘译自 普氏能源资讯 原文如下: Ukraine on Thursday launched a landmark international bidding round for the rights to explore at some 30 license areas throughout the country as Kiev seeks to boost its domestic gas production and reduce its import dependency. The State Geological Service of Ukraine said 10 blocks would be offered in the first stage of the licensing round, with applications invited from interested parties from Thursday for a period of 90 days. The first auction will then take place on March 6 next year. The remaining 20 blocks will be auctioned at a later date. Ukraine’s gas production has been steady at some 20 Bcm/year for the past 25 years, but it has vast untapped potential in its onshore blocks — both for conventional and unconventional resources — as well as in the Black Sea. While looking to produce more gas domestically, Ukraine also wants to eliminate imports, which currently all come from Europe after Kiev halted direct Russian gas purchases in November 2015. Kiev has the ambition of achieving gas self-sufficiency in the coming years — raising production levels to meet gas demand that is currently running at some 28 Bcm/year. But Ukraine has struggled to attract international investors into its upstream in recent years, not least due to the ongoing conflict in the east of the country. International majors such as Chevron and Shell came to Ukraine in the early 2010s in an attempt to develop the country’s unconventional gas resources, but none remain. The recent escalation in tensions between Moscow and Kiev after Russia seized three Ukrainian naval vessels could also detract investors from taking acreage in the country. Nonetheless, Ukraine is moving ahead with the licensing round, with the first 10 blocks covering some 1,810 sq km to be auctioned in March via the public trading platform ProZorro.Sale. The use of an open electronic platform was decided to ensure full transparency in the round, following accusations of wrongdoing in previous contract awards to upstream companies in the country.
