中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价网站1月25日消息 一项雷斯塔能源分析显示，美国在疫情高峰时累积已钻井但尚未完工的油井（DUCs）数量已经下降至Covid-19之前的水平。在2020年6月达到6548口井的多年高点后，到2020年12月底，该国主要油区的此类井数量减少到5700口左右。 不包括很久以前钻探的暂时废弃油井在内的“活”DUCs数量同期也减少了约800口，从6月份的4353口下降到12月份的3528口。目前的水平石油“活”DUCs数量与2020年初的水平相当（市场低迷开始之前）。 雷斯塔能源页岩研究负责人Artem Abramov表示：“考虑到最近油价的复苏，该行业正享受着在今年上半年进一步加速压裂作业的灵活性，使之超过目前的水平。目前活跃的DUCs数量与水力压裂运行速度的比率暗示了这一点，与2018-2019年约三个月的正常水平相比，这一比率仍在6至8个月的范围内。” 截至2021年1月21日，我们确定2020年12月在北美有626个已启动压裂作业。2021年1月，我们预计将有830口油井开始压裂作业，这是自2020年3月Covid-19引发的经济衰退开始后的最高月度总数。 王磊 摘译自 今日油价 原文如下： U.S. Shale Industry Accelerates As Oil Prices Rise The number of drilled but uncompleted wells (DUCs) that accumulated at the height of the pandemic has already subsided to pre-Covid-19 levels in the US, a Rystad Energy analysis shows. After swelling to a multi-year high of 6,548 wells in June 2020, the number of such wells in the country’s major oil regions* slimmed down to around 5,700 wells by the end of December 2020. The inventory of ‘live’ DUCs, which excludes tentatively abandoned wells drilled a long time ago, also declined by around 800 wells in the same period, from 4,353 in June to 3,528 in December. The current level of horizontal oil ‘live’ DUC count is comparable to the level seen in early 2020, just before the market downturn started. “Given the recent recovery in oil prices, the industry is enjoying the flexibility of further accelerating fracking activity beyond current levels in the first half of the year. Such an acceleration could be delivered, as can be implied from the ratio of the current ‘live’ DUC inventory to the run rate of fracking, which is still in the six-to-eight-month range, compared to the normal level of about three months seen in 2018-2019,” says Artem Abramov, Head of Shale Research at Rystad Energy. As of 21 January 2021, we identified 626 started frac operations in North America for December 2020 and we expect the month’s fact-based coverage to be almost complete. For January 2021, we project that there will be 830 wells fracked, the highest monthly total after March 2020, when the Covid-19 induced downturn began. |
