石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据1月11日彭博社报道，BP及其合作伙伴刚刚斥资280亿美元在阿塞拜疆启动了一个大型天然气项目，这可能只是个开始。 BP阿塞拜疆、格鲁吉亚和土耳其地区总裁Gary Jones表示，这家英国石油巨头计划到2020年在该国钻探6口新探井。如果他的期望得到满足，该公司可能会找到一个与Shah Deniz规模差不多的新天然气开采项目。hah Deniz是该公司在里海的一个油田生产燃料的项目，面积与曼哈顿一样大。 Jones在接受电话采访时表示:“阿塞拜疆与巴西一样，在未来几年的重点领域中将脱颖而出。”“对我们来说，这是一个非常重要的勘探项目，展示了我们在里海看到的信心和作用。” 包括BP在内的多家公司正在向欧亚大陆投入更多资金。欧亚大陆拥有大量尚未开发的天然气储层，实际上毗邻渴求燃料的欧洲买家。今年6月，BP及其合作伙伴，包括卢克石油公司(Lukoil PJSC)和马来西亚国家石油公司(Petronas)，开始通过里海和土耳其之间的一条新线路，从Shah Deniz的二期输送天然气。从2020年开始，当管道系统的最后一段完成时，燃料还将流向希腊、保加利亚和意大利。 如果BP在附近的探井发现更多的天然气，它可以使用同样的管道将这些燃料运往欧洲。 Jones说:“这就是为什么我们在里海开发了一个雄心勃勃的勘探项目，研究其他一些非常重要的天然气选择。”我们可以“把这种天然气的供应一直持续到本世纪中叶。” 孔丽炜 摘译自彭博社 原文如下： BP Plc and its partners just spent $28 billion bringing a giant natural gas project in Azerbaijan online, and that may only be the start. The British oil major intends to drill six new exploration wells in the country by 2020, according to Gary Jones, BP’s regional president for Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey. If his expectations are met, the company could find a new gas play that’s about the same size as Shah Deniz, its project that produces the fuel from a field in the Caspian Sea that’s as large as Manhattan. “Alongside Brazil, Azerbaijan stands out in terms of the areas of focus for the next few years,” Jones said in a phone interview. “It’s a very significant exploration program for us, which demonstrates the confidence and the role that we see in the Caspian.” Companies, including BP, are pouring more money into Eurasia, a region with massive, untapped gas reservoirs that are practically next door to fuel-hungry European buyers. In June, BP and partners including Lukoil PJSC and Petronas, started sending gas from the second phase of Shah Deniz through a new link between the Caspian Sea and Turkey. From 2020, the fuel will also flow to Greece, Bulgaria and Italy when the final leg of the pipeline system is completed. If BP finds more gas in nearby exploration wells, it could use the same pipelines to transport that fuel to Europe. “That’s why we’ve got quite an ambitious exploration program developing in the Caspian looking at some other very significant gas options,” Jones said. We could “take this source of supply of gas well into the middle of the century.”
