BP的英國(guó)兩旗艦油田受到生產(chǎn)挫折打擊

據(jù)石油新聞2021年3月18日倫敦報(bào)道，英國(guó)石油公司（BP）旗下的位于英國(guó)設(shè)得蘭群島西部的兩個(gè)旗艦油田克萊爾油田和斯希哈林油田的少數(shù)股份持有者英國(guó)領(lǐng)先的獨(dú)立勘探和生產(chǎn)公司Chrysaor公司在3月18日的一份聲明中說(shuō)，BP的兩個(gè)旗艦油田的表現(xiàn)均低于預(yù)期，補(bǔ)救措施如新增鉆井作業(yè)預(yù)計(jì)需要時(shí)間來(lái)實(shí)施。

克萊爾油田和斯希哈林油田位于大西洋東部惡劣的海洋環(huán)境中，在過(guò)去10年中先后進(jìn)行了數(shù)十億美元的升級(jí)，分別在2017年和2018年安裝了新的生產(chǎn)設(shè)施。BP稱(chēng)，就英國(guó)的增長(zhǎng)前景而言，該地區(qū)是BP的主要關(guān)注點(diǎn)，而不是傳統(tǒng)的北海。

不過(guò)，在克萊爾油田和斯希哈林油田中分別持有7.5%和10%股份的Chrysaor公司在其年度報(bào)告中指出，這兩個(gè)旗艦油田如今都遇到了難題。

這兩個(gè)油田生產(chǎn)的是重質(zhì)原油，而不是像布倫特和克萊爾那樣的輕質(zhì)低硫原油，后者是布倫特基準(zhǔn)原油的組成部分?？巳R爾原油在設(shè)得蘭群島的Sullom Voe裝載，而斯希哈林原油則直接運(yùn)往鹿特丹煉油廠進(jìn)行加工。

BP's flagship UK oil fields hit by production setbacks

BP's flagship Clair and Schiehallion oil fields in the UK West of Shetland area have both been performing below expectations, with remedial measures such as new drilling expected to take time to implement, minority stakeholder Chrysaor said in a March 18 statement.

Schiehallion and Clair, located in a harsh maritime environment in the eastern Atlantic, have both undergone multi-billion dollar upgrades in the last decade, with new production facilities installed in 2017 and 2018 respectively. BP has described the region as its main focus in terms of UK growth prospects, rather than the conventional North Sea.

However, Chrysaor, which holds stakes of 7.5% and 10% in Clair and Schiehallion respectively, noted both were encountering problems, in its annual report.

The fields produce heavy crude, rather than light sweet grades such as Brent and Clair that contribute to the Dated Brent benchmark, with Clair crude loaded at Sullom Voe in the Shetland Islands and Schiehallion crude shipped directly to Rotterdam for processing.
