在法国道达尔能源公司推迟了对第58号区块(区块58)的数十亿美元最终投资决定后,苏里南政府把希望寄托在了本国的石油行业上
最新的评估钻井作业证实,区块58可能蕴藏多达65亿桶的可开采石油资源,这将推动苏里南类似邻国圭亚那的石油繁荣前景
道达尔能源在区块58的合作伙伴美国阿帕奇报告称,已经确定了超过8亿桶的石油资源,并正在寻求在苏里南海上建造一个液化天然气平台
中国石化新闻网讯 据油价网2023年8月28日报道,位于苏里南的区块58的开发,经过长时间的拖延,如今似乎重新回到了正轨。道达尔能源公司在该项目拥有50%的股份,该公司一直报告在Sapakara和Krabdagu发现的评估井取得了可靠的钻井结果。
在最新的开发中,Krabdagu-3井的评价钻井作业,确认了Krabdagu发现井位于向南延伸14公里的地区。Krabdagu发现和评价井收集的数据正在接受分析,以确定石油通道的面积,阿帕奇公司称其大于25公里。根据阿帕奇公司今年2月的一份声明,在Sapakara和Krabdagu发现的石油资源已超过8亿桶。在阿帕奇公司今年第二季度的业绩报告中,该公司表示,Sapakara和Krabdagu发现的石油中心项目目前正在确定范围。阿帕奇公司还寻求在苏里南近海建造一个液化天然气平台。这些天然气将是苏里南海上钻井的副产品,最初将被重新注入地下以提高原油采收率,并长期出口液化天然气。
一段时间以来,人们一直猜测,圭亚那海上斯塔布鲁克区块的高产石油通道可以从邻近的Corentyne区块的北部延伸到苏里南区块58。
阿帕奇公司公布的最新钻井结果,加上CGX能源公司在Corentyne区块北部发现的Kawa-1井和Wei-1井,表明情况很可能如此。如果这一假设被证明是正确的,它将支持早先的估计,即苏里南区块58可能含有多达65亿桶的可开采石油资源。这将使区块58成为一项宝贵的资产,能够支持苏里南的石油繁荣,其规模堪比圭亚那。

Suriname Oil Boom Back On Track As New Discoveries Excite Investors
· Suriname,pins hopes on its oil sector after TotalEnergies delayed the billion-dollar final investment decision for Block 58.
· Latest appraisal drilling confirms that Block 58 could contain as much as 6.5 billion barrels of exploitable oil resources, boosting prospects for an oil boom similar to neighboring Guyana.
· APA Corporation, TotalEnergies' partner in Block 58, reported that more than 800 million barrels of oil resources have been identified and is also pursuing establishing an LNG platform in offshore Suriname.
The development of Block 58 in Suriname, after a lengthy delay, appears back on track. TotalEnergies 50% partner in the block APA Corporation, consistently reported solid results for the appraisal wells being drilled at the Sapakara and Krabdagu discoveries.
In the latest development, appraisal drilling at the Krabdagu-3 well confirmed the resource identified by the Krabdagu discovery well extends 14 kilometers to the south. The data gathered from the Krabdagu discovery and appraisal wells is being analyzed to determine the size of the petroleum fairway identified, which APA claims is greater than 25 kilometers. According to a February 2023 statement by APA, more than 800 million barrels of oil resources have been identified at the Sapakara and Krabdagu discoveries. In APA’s second quarter 2023 results, the company stated an oil hub project for the Sapakara and Krabdagu discoveries is currently being scoped. APA is also pursuing establishing an LNG platform in offshore Suriname. The gas, which will be a byproduct of drilling in offshore Suriname, will initially be reinjected to enhance oil recovery with a view to exporting LNG in the long-term.
For some time, there has been considerable speculation that the prolific petroleum fairway contained in the Stabroek Block offshore Guyana extends through the northern segment of the neighboring Corentyne Block into Block 58.
The latest drilling results announced by APA coupled with the Kawa-1 and Wei-1 discoveries made by CGX Energy in the northern section of the Corentyne Block indicate this could very well be the case. If that assumption proves correct, it will support earlier estimates that Block 58 could contain as much as 6.5 billion barrels of exploitable oil resources. That will make the block an invaluable asset that is capable of supporting an oil boom in Suriname on the scale of that is being enjoyed by Guyana.
