里约石油公司收购雪佛龙Frade油田

中国石化新闻网讯 据彭博社1月31日消息,巴西独立石油生产商里约石油公司同意收购雪佛龙公司52%股权后,将获得该国沿海Frade油田的控制权,并且可能会有更多收购。里约石油公司的股价飙升。 里约石油公司在一份声明中表示,该公司将拥有Frade 油田70%的股权并拥有运营控制权,成为巴西最大的独立石油生产商,日产量估计为2.8万桶。该公司还拥有Polvo和Manati等生产油田的股份。圣保罗的股市上涨了14%。 公司首席执行官Nelson Queiroz Tanure在电话采访中表示:“我们财务状况良好,我们更喜欢开采能产生效益的油田。” 知情人士在交易宣布前告诉彭博社,里约石油公司将支付逾5亿美元。雪佛龙和里约石油公司表示,只有在正式程序结束后,才能公布收购价格。 里约石油公司在2016年以5亿美元收购巴西国家石油公司的Bauna油田,但遭到拒绝。这位知情人士表示,巴西国家石油公司仍在寻求这个离岸项目的买家,并补充道里约石油公司是竞标者之一。里约石油公司拒绝就其正在考虑收购的具体油田发表评论。 10月,里约石油公司从日本Frade石油公司手中收购了Frade 18%的股份。国营巴西石油公司拥有该油田剩余的30%的股份。里约石油公司表示将继续保持目前的生产水平,并专注于Frade与其邻近油田Polvo之间的协同效应。Polvo的投资已得到确认,计划在2019年下半年钻探四口井。 Tanure说,Frade油田目前从浅层油藏开采,但已经确定了更深的盐下储层,里约石油公司将考虑在2020年对其进行勘探。 曹海斌 摘译自 彭博社 原文如下: Petro Rio Buys Chevron’s Frade Field in Brazil Expansion Independent Brazilian oil producer Petro Rio SA will take control of the Frade field off the country’s coast after agreeing to buy Chevron Corp.’s 52 percent stake, and more acquisitions may be on the way. Petro Rio’s shares surged. Petro Rio will own 70 percent of Frade and have control of operations, becoming the largest Brazil-based independent oil producer in the country, with an estimated output of 28,000 barrels of equivalent oil a day, it said in a statement. It also owns stakes in the producing fields Polvo and Manati. Shares rose as much as 14 percent in Sao Paulo. “We’re are in great financial health,” Chief Executive Officer Nelson Queiroz Tanure said in a telephone interview. “We have a preference for producing fields that generate cash.” Petro Rio will pay more than $500 million, a person familiar with the matter told Bloomberg before the deal was announced. Chevron and Petro Rio said the value will only be announced after formal procedures are concluded. Petro Rio made a $500 million bid for Petrobras’s Bauna field in 2016 that was rejected. Petrobras is still seeking buyers for the offshore project, said the person, adding that Petro Rio is among the bidders. Petro Rio declined to comment on specific fields it is considering for acquisition. In October, Petro Rio bought a 18 percent stake in Frade from Frade Japao Petroleo Ltda. State-run Petroleo Brasileiro SA has the remaining 30 percent of the field. Petro Rio said it will continue with current production levels and focus on synergies between Frade and its neighboring field Polvo. Investments at Polvo are confirmed, with four wells planned for the second half of 2019. Frade currently produces from shallow reservoirs, but deeper pre-salt formations have been identified and Petro Rio will consider exploring them, possibly in 2020, Tanure said.
