如今,英属哥伦比亚东北部的Fort St. John拥有了更多空缺的工业园。北部经济发展和平委员会的官员Jennifer Moore认为这是一个好现象,因为当地油气田将有更多的天然气钻探活动,并有可能成为加拿大重要的新能源开发区。随着美国供应量增加,天然气价格有所下降。Fort St. John及周边地区经历了天然气市场不景气达两年的状况。尽管天然气价格仍然较低,行业人士认为Montney丰富的发现及新管道的建设可以带来更多的勘探活动。
Hurricane能源表示他们已经完成了设得兰群岛西部Lancaster油田205 21a-7Z水平井的钻探工作。在早期生产系统(EPS)开发阶段完成之前,该井目前被认为将会是第二大产油井。该井一公里的产量与205 21a-6水平井产量一样,205 21a-6井是2014年钻探的。在这些井中,流体都被测试设备控制,在测试阶段没有地层水产出。在清除205-21a-6井防磨补心之后,Hurricane打算在相同区域的Lincoln前景区打井。Hurricane CEO Dr. Robert Trice表示:“这些测试结果非常鼓舞人心,也支持了我们的Lancaster油田开发计划并表明这两口高产井可以应用在我们的EPS中。”

GODALMING, UK – Hurricane Energy says tests have been completed on its 205 21a-7Z horizontal side track well on the Lancaster oil field west of Shetland.The well will now be suspended as a future second producer, ahead of the early production system (EPS) development phase.Productivity from the 1-km side track was consistent with results from the 205 21a-6 horizontal well, drilled on the field in 2014. In both cases, flow was constrained by the test equipment. No formation water was produced during the testing operations.Following the removal of the wear bushing from the 205-21a-6 well, Hurricane now anticipates spudding of a well on the Lincoln prospect in the same area.Dr. Robert Trice, Hurricane’s CEO, said: “We are very encouraged by these excellent test results which support the company’s plans for a Lancaster field development and demonstrate that we now have two highly productive horizontal wells which we will use in our EPS.

墨西哥国家油气委员会(CNH)在本周一举行了第二轮勘探开发投标的首次招标,其中15个浅水区块中的10个区块竞标成功。总共有36家公司和个人参与投标。其中12家公司获得了区块租赁权,有7家是墨西哥上游业务区块的新成员。Eni集团之前在第一轮招标中获得了一个浅水区块,从众多竞标者中脱颖而出获得了3个许可权。在2.1轮竞标中的另一赢家是CitlaEnergy,他们与Eni和Cairn Energy合作,获得了3个许可权。PEMEX获得了两个区块,分别是与德国的DEA Deutsche合作开发Tampico-Misantla Area 2,与哥伦比亚的Ecopetrol合作开发Southeastern Basins Area 8。其中最抢手的区块是Southeastern Basins Area 9,吸引了6家大型的油气公司,诸如Chevron、中海油,还有一些小型公司,诸如Talos Energy和Diavaz。在2.1轮招标中的区块均位于Veracruz、Tabasco和Campeche海岸,这15个区块总面积达8900km2,前景储量达40亿桶油当量。
釜山,韩国-ABS和三星重工(SHI)共同开发设计新型张力腿平台(TLP)。新型TLP平台理念-三星强化张力筋腱平台(SET)被研制出来主要用于西非沿海的边界测试活动。该项目的一个目的就是减少TLP所需张力筋腱的数量,最终平台只需少量的张力筋腱就可以保持稳定。概念发展已经基本完成,ABS自始至终都在执行设计审查及验证其可行性。

BUSAN, Republic of Korea – ABS and Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) of South Korea have concluded a joint development project for a new tension leg platform (TLP) design.The new TLP hull concept, the Samsung Enhanced hull for Tendon (SET) TLP, was developed using boundary conditions such as those encountered offshore West Africa. One of the objectives in the project was to decrease the number of tendons needed for the TLP. The resulting hull configuration requires fewer tendons for stability.Concept development is nearly complete. ABS performed design review and verification from start to finish of the project.
