中国石化新闻网讯 据离岸工程10月22日报道称,挪威国家石油公司的巴西区域负责人表示,该公司正在巴西沿岸寻找地点,安装新的天然气基础设施,因为该公司的海上密集型天然气田将在未来几年内投产。 在巴西,天然气既被认为是一个有前途的机遇,又是一个令人头疼的问题。这个拉丁美洲的石油大国正迅速在该国东南沿海的盐下地区开发一个多产石油区。 该地区的许多资产都拥有大量的天然气,但巴西人的消费量很低,该国几乎没有管道和码头来促进出口。结果,企业在增加原油产量的过程中很大程度上选择了“重新注入”天然气。 但这种方法持续时间有限。一些正在开采的盐下油田因有太多的气体无法重新注入。11月初在天然气储量丰富的地区进行的两次大规模政府拍卖可能会加剧这一难题。 在一次采访中,挪威国家石油公司执行副总裁MargarethØvrum估计该公司的凝析油气田Pao de Acucar将在2020年代中期上线,这可能使其“成为(巴西)第一个需要陆上天然气出口解决方案的气田。” 该公司在Carcara气田也有类似的对话。她表示,该公司预计将在2023年或2024年上半年开始“第一阶段”生产。并补充说,挪威国家石油公司尚未决定何时开始第二阶段生产,但这也可能涉及建设天然气基础设施。 徐蕾 摘译自 离岸工程 原文如下: Equinor Eyes Brazil Natural Gas Infrastructure Norway's Equinor ASA is scouting locations on Brazil's coast to install new natural gas infrastructure, the company's Brazil chief said, as the firm's gas-heavy offshore fields come on-line in the coming years. Natural gas is considered both a promising opportunity and a vexing problem in Brazil. The Latin American oil powerhouse is rapidly developing a prolific oil area off the nation's southeastern coast known as the pre-salt. Many of the region's assets have significant amounts of natural gas, but consumption is low among Brazilians and the nation has few pipelines and terminals to facilitate exports. As a result, firms have largely opted to "re-inject" the gas, in a process that increases crude output. That will only work for so long. Some fields coming on-line in the pre-salt have too much gas to re-inject. Two massive government auctions in early November in a gas-rich zone are likely to add to the conundrum. In an interview, Executive Vice President Margareth Øvrum estimated Equinor's gas condensate Pao de Acucar field would come online in the mid-2020s, making it "probably the first field coming on-line (in Brazil) that needs a gas export solution onshore." The firm is having similar conversations at its Carcara field. It expects to begin "first phase" production there in 2023 or the first half of 2024, she said. Equinor has not decided on when it will begin phase two, she added, but that could involve constructing natural gas infrastructure as well.
