澳大利亞監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)NOPSEMA批準(zhǔn)BP鉆探井

澳大利亞海上監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)NOPSEMA批準(zhǔn)了英國石油公司對(duì)Ironbark-1探井的環(huán)境計(jì)劃。

Ironbark勘探項(xiàng)目位于WA-359-P勘探許可區(qū)域，位于Carnarvon盆地，距離西北大陸架(NWS)液化天然氣基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施約50公里。

英國石油公司運(yùn)營并擁有42.5%的經(jīng)驗(yàn)許可權(quán)。其他合作伙伴包括Cue Energy公司占21.5%、海灘能源公司（Beach Energy）占21%和新西蘭石油天然氣公司（New Zealand Oil & Gas）占15%。

2018年10月，Cue Energy子公司Cue Exploration與英國石油發(fā)展公司、海灘能源公司和新西蘭石油天然氣(NZOG)簽署協(xié)議，成立合資公司(JV)，負(fù)責(zé)Ironbark-1探井的鉆井作業(yè)。

Ironbark-1的鉆探活動(dòng)計(jì)劃于10月開始，使用的是Diamond offshore - shore公司旗下的Ocean Apex鉆井平臺(tái)。

這口井預(yù)計(jì)將鉆到5500米深。

Cue Energy首席執(zhí)行官M(fèi)atthew Boyall表示:“Cue Energy歡迎Ironbark勘探公司的鉆井環(huán)境計(jì)劃獲得批準(zhǔn)，并對(duì)Ironbark-1井鉆井的持續(xù)進(jìn)展感到興奮，該井預(yù)計(jì)將在3個(gè)月內(nèi)開鉆?！?/span>

Cue Energy持有21.5%的股權(quán)參與世界一流的Ironbark天然氣開發(fā)項(xiàng)目，如果成功將為該公司帶來環(huán)境和經(jīng)濟(jì)效益?！?/span>

去年6月Cue Exploration與合作公司成立了一家合資公司，以測(cè)試Ironbark在WA-359-P的前景。

BP receives approval from NOPSEMA to drill Ironbark-1 well

Australian offshore regulator NOPSEMA has approved BP’s environment plan for the Ironbark-1 exploration well.

The Ironbark prospect is located in exploration permit WA-359-P, which is situated in the Carnarvon Basin, around 50km from the North West Shelf (NWS) LNG infrastructure.

BP operates and owns 42.5% in the permit. Other partners include Cue Energy (21.5%), Beach Energy (21%), and New Zealand Oil & Gas (15%).

In October 2018, Cue Energy Resources’ subsidiary Cue Exploration signed an agreement with BP Developments, Beach Energy and New Zealand Oil & Gas (NZOG) to form a joint venture (JV) to undertake drilling operations at the Ironbark-1 exploration well.

Drilling activities at Ironbark-1 are planned to start in October using the Diamond Offshore-owned Ocean Apex drilling rig.

The well is expected to be drilled at a depth of 5,500m.

Cue Energy CEO Matthew Boyall said: “Cue Energy welcomes the approval of the Ironbark Exploration Drilling Environment Plan and is excited with the continuing progress toward the drilling of the Ironbark-1 well, which is expected to spud in about three months.

“Cue holds a significant 21.5% participating interest in the world-class Ironbark gas prospect, which, if successful, could be company changing for Cue and deliver environmental and economic benefits to Australia and the region.”

In June last year, Cue Exploration formed a JV with partner companies to test the Ironbark prospect in WA-359-P.
