中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社巴黎1月21日报道,法国石油集团道达尔首席执行官Patrick Pouyanne周一表示:“公司将批准未来几个月在尼日利亚实施Ikike项目的计划, 并计划在该国扩大液化天然气项目。”
道达尔是非洲石油行业最强大的参与者之一, 在非洲大陆拥有的已探明储量超过其他全球顶级石油公司。
日产量为6万桶的Ikike项目是该集团在尼日利亚为最终投资决定指定的几个项目之一,其他项目包括日产量7万桶的深水Preowei项目,这将有助于道达尔石油产量的全面增长。
Pouyanne在巴黎的一次尼日利亚和法国企业会议上发表了讲话:“尼日利亚有着巨大的潜力,该国可能是西非石油和天然气产量最高的国家,现在是启动新项目的时候了,我们正在为其中许多项目而努力。” 本月,道达尔在尼日利亚沿海的Egina油田开始生产。
Pouyanne说:“在与Egina相同的地区,我们有Preowei项目,我们可能会将Preowei与Egina连接起来,我们正在为此而努力。”
他表示, 道达尔还计划今年扩大尼日利亚液化天然气项目。
他补充道:“现在的市场非常适合这样做,这是一个非常吸引人的项目,合作伙伴们都在排着队开发它,2019年应该是扩大尼日利亚液化天然气的一年。”
Pouyanne呼吁尼日利亚发放新的勘探许可证,他说,由于不确定因素和正在进行的关于尼日利亚石油行业监管的讨论,该国的石油和天然气部门近年来在勘探和新项目方面一直处于休眠状态。
最后一轮勘探许可证招标是在2011年。他说:“我希望,在选举之后将出现的新政府为颁发新的勘探许可证发起新的招标。” 尼日利亚人将在2月16日的总统选举中投票,现任总统Muhammadu Buhari将寻求连任。
Pouyanne表示,道达尔还在与中国某超大型企业合作开发乌干达的第一个油田,该公司将在今年就是否开始生产做出最终投资决定。乌干达已表示,预计将于2021年开始生产石油。Pouyanne最近告诉乌干达总统Yoweri Museveni,道达尔也愿意入股一家炼油厂,在那里加工原油,该炼油厂将在2023年建成并投入运营。
乌干达与一个财团签署了一项协议,其中包括通用电气的一个子公司,以建造和运营日产能6万桶的炼油厂,耗资约30亿至40亿美元。 詹晓晶摘自路透社
原文如下: Total to go ahead with Ikike oil project in Nigeria French oil group Total will approve plans to proceed with the Ikike project in Nigeria in the coming months, and also aims to expand its liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in the country, CEO Patrick Pouyanne said on Monday. Total is one of the strongest players in the African oil sector, holding more proven reserves on the continent than any of the other top global oil companies. The 60,000 barrels-per-day (bpd) Ikike project is one of several projects the group has earmarked in Nigeria for a final investment decision, including the 70,000 bpd deepwater Preowei project, which would help Total increase its oil production. “There is a huge potential in Nigeria, it is probably the most prolific country in west Africa in terms of oil and gas and it is time to launch new projects and we are working on many of them,” Pouyanne told journalists. He was speaking on the sidelines of a meeting of Nigerian and French businesses in Paris. This month, Total started production at the Egina oilfield off the coast of Nigeria. “On the same area as Egina, we have Preowei, which could be connected to Egina, We are working on that,” Pouyanne said. Total also planned to expand its Nigerian LNG project this year, he said. “The market is very good today to do that, it is a very interesting project and the partners are in line to develop it… 2019 should be the year of expanding Nigeria LNG,” he added. Pouyanne called on Nigeria to issue new exploration licences, saying the country’s oil and gas sector had been dormant in recent years in terms of exploration and new projects due to uncertainties and the ongoing discussions over Nigeria’s oil industry regulation. The last round of exploration licenses tenders was in 2011. “I hope the new government that will come after the election will launch new tenders for awarding new exploration licenses,” he said. Nigerians will vote on Feb. 16 in a presidential election with incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari seeking a second term. Total is also developing Uganda’s first oilfield with one company in China and Pouyanne said the company would make a final investment decision this year on whether to start production. Uganda has said it expects to start producing oil in 2021. Pouyanne said he recently told Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni that Total would also be willing to take a stake in a refinery to process crude from the field which is due to be built and operational by 2023. Uganda signed a deal with a consortium, including a subsidiary of General Electric, to build and operate a 60,000 barrel per day refinery that will cost $3 billion-$4 billion.
