中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价网7月26日消息，日本国际石油开发帝石株式会社（Inpex）周五表示，已与阿纳达科石油公司(Anadarko)达成协议，将分别买下阿纳达科在美国南部墨西哥湾四个勘探区块40%的股权，这是该公司将墨西哥湾列为优先勘探区域的策略之一。 Inpex称，根据与阿纳达科石油公司的协议，Inpex将购买美国墨西哥湾凯斯利峡谷921和965区块以及沃克岭881和925 区块40%的参股权益，但没有透露具体价格。 四个勘探区块的水深在2,150米至2,700米(7,050至8,860英尺)之间，靠近正开展生产的Lucius油田和Hadrian North油田，Inpex也持有参与股权。 收购完成后，Inpex将在四个石油勘探区块各持有40%的股份，而阿纳达科作为运营商仍将持有60%的股份。 在Inpex和阿纳达科的管理和进一步评估工作获得批准之前，Inpex计划在早期阶段与运营商阿纳达科合作钻探一口勘探井。 此次收购是Inpex计划的一部分，该计划旨在使美国墨西哥湾成为一个重要的勘探重点，并实现其“石油和天然气勘探开发活动可持续增长”的目标。 该日本公司表示，此次收购对Inpex截至2019年12月的年度合并财务业绩的影响微乎其微。 就阿纳达科石油公司而言，西方石油公司(Occidental)正对其进行收购，这是近年来规模最大的油气并购交易之一。 西方石油公司尚未完成对阿纳达科的收购，但分析师已经在猜测，西方石油公司可能剥离哪些阿纳达科资产，以削减其在这笔交易中承担的部分债务，并在交易完成后专注于核心资产——阿纳达科在美国的主要页岩区。 分析师5月对路透社表示，西方石油公司最有可能出售的资产可能是阿纳达科的管道业务和墨西哥湾资产。阿纳达科的墨西哥湾区域可能至少价值60亿美元，潜在买家可能是埃克森美孚、壳牌、雪佛龙和道达尔等在墨西哥湾拥有丰富经验的大型石油公司。 裘寅 编译自 今日油价 原文如下： Japan’s Inpex Buys Into Four Anadarko Gulf Of Mexico Oil Blocks Japan’s Inpex Corporation said on Friday it had reached a deal with Anadarko to buy 40 percent in each of four exploration blocks operated by Anadarko in the southern U.S. Gulf of Mexico, as part of a strategy to make the Gulf of Mexico one of its priority exploration areas. Under the agreement with Anadarko Petroleum, Inpex will buy a 40-percent participating interest in Keathley Canyon blocks 921 and 965, as well as in Walker Ridge blocks 881 and 925 in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, the Japanese company said, without revealing details of the price. The four exploration blocks lie at water depths of between 2,150 meters and 2,700 meters (7,050 and 8,860 feet) and are close to the producing Lucius Oil Field and Hadrian North Oil Field, in which Inpex also holds participating interests. After the acquisition, Inpex will have 40 percent in each of the four oil exploration blocks, while Anadarko will remain operator with 60-percent stakes. Pending approvals by Inpex and Anadarko’s management and further evaluation work, Inpex plans to drill an exploration well at an early stage in partnership with the operator, Anadarko. The acquisition is part of Inpex’s plan to make the U.S. Gulf of Mexico a key exploration priority and to pursue its goal of “sustainable growth of oil and natural gas E&P activities.” The acquisition will have minimal impact on Inpex’s consolidated financial results for the year ending December 2019, the Japanese company said. Anadarko, for its part, is being acquired by Occidental in one of the largest oil and gas M&A deals in years. Occidental hasn’t closed the acquisition of Anadarko yet, but analysts are already speculating about which Anadarko assets Occidental could divest to cut part of the debt it has taken on from the transaction and to focus on the core assets after the deal—Anadarko’s prime U.S. shale acreage. According to analysts who spoke to Reuters in May, Occidental’s most likely asset sales could be Anadarko’s pipeline business and the assets in the Gulf of Mexico. Anadarko’s GoM position may be worth at least US$6 billion, and potential buyers could be some of the biggest players with experience in the Gulf of Mexico such as Exxon, Shell, Chevron, and Total, analysts told Reuters.
