雪佛龍與埃尼談判出售印尼深水開發(fā)項目股份

據(jù)ICIS-MRC網(wǎng)站9月9日莫斯科MRC報道，石油巨頭雪佛龍(Chevron)正與意大利埃尼集團(Eni)就出售其在印尼東加里曼丹近海深水開發(fā)項目所持股份的可能性進行談判。

此次談判的背景是，雪佛龍公司最近以50億美元的價格收購了上游公司來寶能源公司(Noble Energy)，而全球石油和天然氣價格的暴跌顛覆了碳氫化合物儲量的估值，迫使能源集團重新配置其投資組合。

如果出售成功，將為IDD項目下氣田的開發(fā)提供一定的確定性。由于與政府存在分歧，IDD項目一直處于僵局。這還意味著，又一家大型石油公司將退出印尼的一個旗艦上游項目，由于外界對資源國有化的擔(dān)憂。

第二位高級政府官員證實，雪佛龍正在與埃尼就IDD項目進行談判，第三位未透露姓名的上游投資者也參與了討論。

IDD項目包括印度尼西亞近海的Ganal和Rapak區(qū)塊以及Bangka和Gehem-Gendalo氣田的生產(chǎn)共享合同。

根據(jù)雪佛龍公司網(wǎng)站顯示，雪佛龍持有Bangka油田62％的權(quán)益，Gendalo-Gehem中63％的權(quán)益。天然氣田的其他合作伙伴包括埃尼，Tiptop Energy和中國石化。

今年1月，雪佛龍公司表示已開設(shè)了一個數(shù)據(jù)室，以便利有關(guān)其在IDD的潛在權(quán)益的出售的討論，但尚未做出出售其權(quán)益的最終決定。其表示，作為IDD的一期已于2016年8月開始生產(chǎn)的Bangka無法在雪佛龍的全球投資組合中爭奪資本。

印尼能源部的Syahrial表示，IDD的開發(fā)和Rokan區(qū)塊實際上是“一攬子計劃”。

IDD項目預(yù)計將包含2.3萬億立方英尺的天然氣。 上游監(jiān)管機構(gòu)SKK Migas預(yù)計IDD的二期將于2026年第四季度投產(chǎn)，預(yù)計峰值產(chǎn)量將達到8.44億立方英尺/日天然氣和2.7萬桶/日原油。

Chevron in talks with Eni to sell stake in Indonesia Deepwater Development: officials

Oil major Chevron is in talks with Italy's Eni over the possibility of selling its stake in the Indonesia Deepwater Development project in offshore East Kalimantan in Southeast Asia.

The talks are happening against the backdrop of Chevron's recent acquisition of upstream company Noble Energy for USD5 billion and a global slump in oil and gas prices that has upended valuations of hydrocarbon reserves and forced energy conglomerates to reconfigure their portfolios.

If the sale goes through it could provide some certainty to the development of the gas fields under IDD that has been in limbo due to disagreements with the government. It would also mean the exit of yet another oil major from a flagship Indonesian upstream project amid resource nationalization concerns.

A second senior government official confirmed that Chevron was in talks with Eni over the IDD project, and a third unnamed upstream investor was also involved in discussions.

A Chevron spokesman said it does not comment on commercial discussions as a matter of long-standing policy, and Eni acknowledged the query but didn't provide an immediate confirmation.

The IDD project includes the production sharing contracts for the Ganal and Rapak blocks in offshore Indonesia, and the gas fields of Bangka and Gehem-Gendalo.

Chevron has a 62% interest in the Bangka field and a 63% stake in Gendalo-Gehem, according to its website. The other partners in the gas fields are Eni, Tiptop Energy and Sinopec.

In January, Chevron said it had opened a data room to facilitate discussions about th potential sale of its interest in IDD but no final decision had been made to sell its interest. It said Bangka, which began production in August 2016 as the first phase of IDD, was not able to compete for capital in Chevron's global portfolio.

Indonesian energy ministry's Syahrial said the IDD development and Rokan block were actually "one package."

The IDD project is expected to contain of 2.3 Tcf of gas. Upstream regulator SKK Migas expects the second phase of IDD to be on stream in the fourth quarter of 2026; and peak production is expected to reach 844 million cu ft/d of natural gas and 27,000 b/d of crude oil.
