石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据美国彭博新闻社5月23日休斯敦报道，一家私营公司日前在墨西哥水域近80年来首次开钻了一口新的海上油井，这是墨西哥旨在允许外国竞争对手返回其能源市场努力的最新举措。 总部设在伦敦的Premier石油公司周一在一份声明中说，由Premier石油公司、总部设在休斯敦的塔洛斯能源有限公司和墨西哥Sierra油气公司组成的一个合资企业5月21日在墨西哥水域开始钻取这口油井。这是墨西哥在1938年国有化其石油工业以来由除墨西哥国家石油公司以外的私营公司启动的第一口海上勘探井。 Premier石油公司在声明中说，位于塔巴斯科州海上Sureste盆地的Zama-1井估计拥有1亿至5亿桶原油储量。钻井作业预计将需要90天才能完成，Premier石油公司将为此井耗资1600万美元。3家公司是在2015年墨西哥投票决定把其老化的石油工业向私人投资开放以后举行的首轮招标中获得了勘探权。 李峻 编译自 美国彭博新闻社 原文如下： Mexico Oil Reform Advances With First Private Well in 80 Years For the first time in almost 80 years, a private company has sunk a new offshore oil well in Mexican waters — the latest step in the country’s drive to allow foreign competitors back into its energy markets. A joint venture of London-based Premier Oil Plc, Houston’s Talos Energy LLC and Mexico’s Sierra Oil & Gas began drilling the well May 21, Premier said in a statement Monday. It’s the first offshore exploration well to be launched by anyone other than state-run monopoly Petroleos Mexicanos since the country nationalized its oil industry in 1938. The Zama-1 well, in the Sureste Basin off the state of Tabasco, holds an estimated 100 million to 500 million barrels of crude, Premier said in the statement. Drilling is expected to take up to 90 days to complete, at a cost to Premier of $16 million. The three companies won rights to the prospect in 2015, in the first round of bidding after Mexico voted to open its ailing oil industry to private investment.
