意外石油发现令道达尔掌握的资源飙升20%

    中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价1月7日报道，法国超级能源巨头道达尔（Total）加入阿帕奇公司（Apache Corporation）位于苏里南近海极具前景的区块中两周后，两家石油公司宣布在该区块中重大的石油发现，令人兴奋的是，多产的圭亚那发现正延伸到邻近的苏里南水域。

    阿帕奇和道达尔在58区块苏里南(Suriname)近海Maka Central-1井中发现了石油，道达尔Total刚获得了该区块50％的工作权益和经营权。

    法国勘探与生产总裁ArnaudBreuillac在12月底宣布该协议时表示,新的许可证扩大了我们在圭亚那-苏里南盆地的地位，这是一个非常有利的石油省份。

    58号区块的MakaCentral-1井钻探后，道达尔和阿帕奇都开采了石油，阿帕奇的首席执行官和总裁约翰·J·克里斯特曼表示我们对MakaCentral-1的结果非常满意。

    克里斯特曼表示 ，初步的地层评估数据表明，油井的潜力很大。 此外，由3D地震成像法定义的地层特征的大小表明资源丰富。

    阿帕奇的首席执行官补充道，与道达尔合作，我们期待提高在该区块上的发现勘探和开发。

    苏里南近海的重大发现可能将南美这个国家变成一个石油生产国，重要的石油发现使邻国圭亚那成为世界上最新的石油生产国。

    Oil Giant Sees Stock Soar 20% On Unexpected Oil Find

    Two weeks after France’s supermajor Total joined Apache Corporation in a highly prospective block offshore Suriname, the two oil corporations announced a significant oil discovery in the block, stoking hopes that the prolific Guyana discoveries are extending into the waters of neighboring Suriname.

    Apache and Total made the oil discovery at the Maka Central-1 well drilled offshore Suriname on Block 58, in which Total had just acquired a 50-percent working interest and operatorship.

    “The new license expands our positions in the Guyana-Suriname Basin, a highly favorable petroleum province,” Arnaud Breuillac, President, Exploration & Production at Total, said at the end of December, when the French company announced the deal.

    After drilling the Maka Central-1 well in Block 58, Total and Apache struck oil, with Apache CEO and President John J. Christmann saying “We are very pleased with results from Maka Central-1.”

    “Preliminary formation evaluation data indicates the potential for prolific oil wells. Additionally, the size of the stratigraphic feature, as defined by 3-D seismic imaging, suggests a substantial resource,” Christmann said.

    “In partnership with Total, we look forward to advancing both exploration and development of discoveries on the block,” Apache’s top executive added.

    Major discoveries offshore Suriname could turn the South American country into an oil producer, the way significant oil discoveries made its neighbor Guyana the world’s newest oil producer.
