中国石化新闻网讯 据油气新闻8月24日消息称，纳米比亚国有石油公司NAMCOR在一份初步数据报告中表示，在最近发现的近海油田中，纳米比亚拥有约110亿桶石油，其中道达尔能源的Venus-1X油田几乎占总储量的一半。
这个南部非洲国家还没有生产任何石油或天然气，但在过去两年中，壳牌和道达尔能源发现了深水油田后，它已成为全球勘探的热点。
雪佛龙、埃克森美孚、Galp Energia等石油公司也在进行勘探和评价活动。
NAMCOR表示，到2035年，大量的发现可能使纳米比亚成为全球前15大石油生产国，并有机会在不到十年的时间内将该国的人均国内生产总值(GDP)翻一番。
根据NAMCOR的演示文稿(路透社周三看到了该演示文稿的副本)，Venus井的储量约为51亿桶，而壳牌的格夫-1x井的储量为23.8亿桶，Jonker-1X井的储量为25亿桶。
纳米比亚石油官员表示，这些井仍在评估中，最终的储量估计可能在今年晚些时候公布。
NAMCOR表示，Venus和Jonker的开发正沿着“多阶段增量”的方法快速进行，该公司持有这两个发现10%的权益。它补充说，壳牌的Graff和Le Rona井还没有开发。
“初步估计显示，到2040年，Graff和Le Rona有可能使纳米比亚GDP几乎翻一番，达到近370亿美元。”NAMCOR说。

Namibia’s offshore oil discoveries estimated at 11 bln barrels – NAMCOR
Namibia holds about 11 billion barrels of oil in recently discovered offshore fields, with TotalEnergies’ Venus-1X find making up almost half of the total, state-owned oil firm NAMCOR said in a presentation of preliminary data.
The southern African country, which has not produced any oil or gas yet, has become a global exploration hotspot after deep water discoveries by Shell SHEL.L and TotalEnergies TTEF.PA over the last two years.
Oil companies including Chevron CVX.N, ExxonMobil XOM.N and Galp Energia GALP.LS are also conducting exploration and appraisal activities.
The raft of discoveries could make Namibia a top 15 oil producer by 2035, said NAMCOR, with an opportunity to double the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) per capita in less than a decade.
According to the NAMCOR presentation, a copy of which was seen by Reuters on Wednesday, the Venus well holds around 5.1 billion barrels of oil, while Shell’s Graff-1X held 2.38 billion and its Jonker-1X another 2.5 billion.
These wells are still being appraised with a final reserve estimate potentially released later this year, Namibian oil officials said.
The development of Venus and Jonker were being fast-tracked along a “multi-phased incremental” approach, said NAMCOR, which held a 10% interest in the discoveries. It added that there was no development concept for Shell’s Graff and Le Rona wells yet.
“Initial estimates show Graff and Venus have the potential to almost double the Namibian GDP by 2040 to close to $37 billion,” NAMCOR said.
