中国石化新闻网讯 据能源世界网1月15日伦敦报道，挪威咨询公司雷斯塔能源(Rystad Energy)称，继去年批准了超过200亿桶石油当量的开发之后，今年新的海上油气项目的支出将进一步增长。 领先的石油和天然气行业咨询公司雷斯塔能源在一份报告中称，2019年超过920亿美元的新海上石油和天然气项目获得了批准，比2016年的十年低点增长了近四倍。 海上活动的强劲回升是油价上涨和整个行业大幅削减成本的结果，从而导致了项目的更高盈利能力。 深水气田既复杂又昂贵，但是它们的高产能和使用寿命长意味着许多项目能够与美国激增的较短周期的陆上页岩油生产竞争。 2019年的海上支出比上一年增长5％，预计2020年将增长8％以上。 去年批准的最大项目包括沙特阿拉伯Marjan和Berri油田的扩建，莫桑比克阿纳达科的Area 1液化天然气项目和墨西哥湾雪佛龙的Anchor项目。 根据数据显示，去年批准开发的石油和天然气量为2011年以来的最高水平，比2018年翻了一番多，石油和其他液体储量为123亿桶，天然气当量资源为83亿桶。 雷斯塔表示，海上项目去年为上市勘探和生产（E＆P）公司创造了近900亿美元的自由现金流，虽然比2018年的1,080亿美元有所下降，但仍是十年来第三高的年份。 雷斯塔的上游研究负责人Espen Erlingsen表示，海上公司的现金流状况非常稳健，这说明在经过数年资本支出受限之后，勘探与生产公司手头有足够的现金来投资新项目。 郝芬 译自 能源世界网 原文如下： UK: Offshore oil and gas boom to continue Spending on new offshore oil and gas projects is set to grow further this year after developments holding more than 20 billion barrels of oil equivalent were given the go-ahead last year, Norwegian consultancy Rystad Energy said. More than $92 billion of new offshore oil and gas projects were given the green light in 2019, a nearly fourfold jump from the decade's low in 2016, Rystad, a leading consultancy in the oil and gas industry, said in a note. The strong pick-up in offshore activity was a result of stronger oil prices and deep cost cuts across the sector, leading to higher profitability for the projects. Deepwater gas fields are complex and costly, but their high capacity and production longevity means that many projects are able to compete with the shorter-cycle onshore shale production that has surged in the United States. Offshore spending in 2019 rose 5 per cent from the previous year and is expected to grow by more than 8 per cent in 2020. The largest projects approved last year included the expansion of the Marjan and Berri oilfields in Saudi Arabia, Anadarko's Area 1 liquefied natural gas project in Mozambique and Chevron's Anchor project in the Gulf of Mexico. Oil and gas volumes approved for development last year were the highest since 2011, more than doubling from 2018 with 12.3 billions barrels of oil and other liquids and 8.3 billion of natural gas equivalent resources, according to the data. Offshore projects generated nearly $90 billion of free cashflow for publicly traded exploration and production (E&P) companies last year, down from $108 billion in 2018 but still the third strongest year of the decade, Rystad said. "The cashflow situation for offshore players is very robust, underlining the point that E&Ps have enough cash in hand to invest in new projects after several years of restrained capital expenditure," said Rystad's head of upstream research, Espen Erlingsen.
