石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社4月25日伊拉克巴士拉报道，一名伊拉克石油公司高管对路透表示，科威特能源公司(Kuwait Energy PLC)周三开始生产来自西巴气田（Siba）的天然气，这是伊拉克南部第一个投产的天然气田。 由伊拉克和科威特能源公司成立的用以开发该油田的合资公司的总裁Kareem Abd Oda表示，西巴开始以每天2500万立方英尺(mcf)的初始速度生产天然气，到今年年底应该会逐渐上升到1亿立方英尺/日。 他补充说，位于巴士拉城以南的西巴正在生产天然气和天然气凝析油。 伊拉克南部的其他油气储藏已经投产，与原油一起生产天然气。 半自治的库尔德地区政府已经开始从伊拉克北部的油田开采天然气。 根据世界银行(World Bank)的数据，伊拉克希望到2021年结束天然气空放燃烧，这将使政府损失近25亿美元的收入，并且足以满足天然气发电的大部分未满足需求。。 Companies, including BP, Exxon Mobil, Eni, Total, Royal Dutch Shell and Lukoil, helped Iraq expand production in the past decade by more than 2.5 million barrels per day (bpd) to about 4.7 million bpd. 伊拉克星期四举行了一次11个区块的石油和天然气勘探合同的拍卖，这些区块是与伊朗、科威特和波斯湾海域的边界邻近。 新合同规定了这些公司所开发的油田结束天然气空放燃烧的时间限制。 包括英国石油公司、埃克森美孚、埃尼、道达尔、荷兰皇家壳牌和卢克石油在内的公司，过去10年帮助伊拉克扩大了250万桶/日的产量，到达近470万桶/日。 蔡小全 编译自 路透社 原文如下： Kuwait Energy Starts Producing Natural Gas From Field In Southern Iraq Kuwait Energy PLC started on Wednesday producing natural gas from Siba, the first gas field to be brought on stream in the south of Iraq, an Iraqi oil executive told Reuters. Siba began producing gas at an initial rate of 25 million cubic feet (mcf) a day, which should rise gradually to 100 mcf/d by the end of the year, said Kareem Abd Oda, the director general of the joint venture established by Iraq and Kuwait Energy to develop the field. Siba, located south of the city of Basra, is producing natural gas and gas condensates, he added. The other hydrocarbon reservoirs of southern Iraq that are already in operation produce natural gas alongside crude oil. The semi-autonomous Kurdistan Regional Government has started producing natural gas from fields in northern Iraq. Iraq hopes by 2021 to end gas flaring, which costs nearly $2.5 billion in lost revenue for the government and would be sufficient to meet most of its unmet needs for gas-based power generation, according to the World Bank. Iraq holds on Thursday an auction of oil and gas exploration contracts in 11 blocks alongside the border with Iran and Kuwait and in offshore Gulf waters. The new contracts set a time limit for companies to end gas flaring from oilfields they develop. Companies, including BP, Exxon Mobil, Eni, Total, Royal Dutch Shell and Lukoil, helped Iraq expand production in the past decade by more than 2.5 million barrels per day (bpd) to about 4.7 million bpd.
