石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据伦敦普氏能源资讯5月23日消息，英国的石油和天然气管理局将在229个海外区块的授权许可中授予123个许可证，这可以帮助”改变”石油和天然气勘探的低迷水平。 该公司在一份声明中表示，第30轮海外融资，主要集中在北海地区之前勘探或“成熟”的地区，并获得了61家主要公司和独立人士的奖励。许可证的数量比上一轮的许可证的数量要少得多，这是在第28回合的成熟地区，但在加罗市宣布成功的时候，它已经宣布了对八项勘探或评估油井的坚定承诺，实施了九次三维地震勘测，并且，它说，可以解开十几个未开发的发现，之前被认为规模太小，或远离管道。 近年来，英国钻探活动大幅下滑，在21世纪头10年，钻井数量每年约占全球的一半;去年开展了14个勘探和9个评价井。然而，一些业内人士认为，更好的地震数据已经改善了油井的目标。 该公司表示，最新一轮的石油和天然气资源总计为15亿桶石油当量，这些石油和天然气资源此前被认为太小或无法从基础设施开发出来。该公司援引业内人士的估计称，它还可能帮助开发另外36亿英国央行的勘探“前瞻性”。 “英国的大陆架又回来了。”这个盆地面临的重大问题已经得到了解答。勘探是非常活跃的，有大量的前景和新井要钻探。研究结果显示，从超级专业到新进入者，活跃玩家的多样性非常丰富。 自世纪之交以来，英国石油产量已稳定在每日100万桶左右，但预计将在本世纪20年代恢复下降。 在这些接受者中，有一份乐观的报告被挪威国家控制的分点，之前被命名为挪威国家石油公司(Statoil)，它被授予9个执照。 “我们认为，英国大陆架没有得到充分开发，并预计将会有新的发现，从而为我们的业务增加价值，并为新的发展提供资源。”英国勘探公司的副总裁珍妮·莫里斯在一份声明中说。 胡晶晶摘译自普氏能源资讯 原文如下 The UK’s Oil and Gas Authority is awarding 123 licenses over 229 offshore blocks in a licensing round it said could help “transform” lackluster levels of oil and gas exploration drilling. The 30th offshore round, mainly focused on previously explored or “mature” areas of the North Sea, has resulted in awards to a broad mix of 61 major companies and independents, the OGA said in a statement. The number of licenses was less than the last licensing round to focus on mature areas, the 28th round, but was declared a success by the OGA as it produced firm commitments to drill eight exploration or appraisal wells, carry out nine 3D seismic surveys and, it said, could unlock a dozen undeveloped discoveries previously considered too small or far from pipelines. UK drilling activity has slumped in recent years, with the number of wells drilled annually around half the number in the first decade of the 21st century; last year 14 exploration and nine appraisal wells were initiated. However some in the industry argue that better seismic data is already improving the targeting of wells. The latest round will help access around 20% of already-discovered oil and gas resources totaling 1.5 billion barrels of oil equivalent that were previously considered too small or remote from infrastructure to develop, the OGA said. It could also help develop a further 3.6 billion boe of exploration “prospectivity,” it said, citing industry estimates. “The UK continental shelf is back. Big questions facing the basin have been answered in this round. Exploration is very much alive with lots of prospects generated and new wells to be drilled. The results show a great diversity of active players from super-majors to new entrants,” OGA chief executive Andy Samuel said. UK oil production has stabilized at around 1 million b/d after falling by about two thirds since the turn of the millennium, but is expected to resume falling in the 2020s. Among the recipients, an optimistic note was struck by Norway’s state-controlled Equinor, previously named Statoil, which was awarded nine licenses. “We believe the UK continental shelf is under-explored and anticipate that there are new discoveries yet to be made that can add value to our business and provide resources for new developments,” Equinor vice president for UK exploration Jenny Morris said in a statement.
