黎巴嫩开始在以色列争议区块进行近海能源搜寻

中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社2月10日贝鲁特报道,黎巴嫩在星期五称,它已经签署了第一个海上石油和天然气勘探和生产协议,包括两个区块,其中包括一个被邻国以色列争议的区块。 黎巴嫩能源部长表示,与以色列的争端并不能阻止黎巴嫩从有争议的区块9的潜在海底油气资源中受益,而财团运营商道达尔则表示不会在争议地区附近钻出该区块的第一个油井。 法国道达尔财团,意大利埃尼集团和俄罗斯诺瓦泰克签署了这两个区块的协议,这两个区块是黎巴嫩在该国拖延已久的第一轮许可协议中投标的5个区块中的一个。 作为相互敌对的国家,以色列和黎巴嫩在两国领土和海洋边界的紧张关系日益加剧的情况下,就投标问题进行了互相威胁和谴责。 合同于1月29日签订。 数据显示,黎巴嫩水域有油气资源,但没有打下勘探钻井以评估其规模。 黎巴嫩与以色列在海域面积约为860平方公里(330平方英里)的三角海区有着悬而未决的海上边界争端,该海域沿其10个区块中的三个边界延伸。 蔡小全 编译自 路透社 原文如下: Lebanon to begin offshore energy search in block disputed by Israel Lebanon said on Friday it had signed its first offshore oil and gas exploration and production agreements for two blocks, including a block disputed by neighboring Israel. Lebanon’s energy minister said the dispute with Israel would not stop Lebanon benefiting from potential undersea reserves in the contentious Block 9, while consortium operator Total said it would not drill the block’s first well near the disputed zone. A consortium of France’s Total, Italy’s Eni and Russia’s Novatek signed the agreements for the two blocks, which are among five that Lebanon put up for tender in the country’s much-delayed first licensing round. Israel and Lebanon, which regard each other as enemy states, have exchanged threats and condemnation over the tender, amid rising tensions over territorial and marine boundaries between them. The contracts were signed on Jan. 29. Data suggests there are reserves in Lebanon’s waters, but no exploratory drilling has taken place to estimate their size. Lebanon has an unresolved maritime border dispute with Israel over a triangular area of sea of around 860 sq km (330 square miles) that extends along the edge of three of its total 10 blocks.
