Equinor在Snorre地区发现石油,正考虑进行捆绑式开发

Equinor及其合作伙伴在北海Snorre地区发现了具有商业价值的石油储量。该合作项目已制定了快速、经济高效的开发计划。

由“深海大西洋”钻井平台钻探的这口井已确认含有油气。初步估计可采储量为2500万至8900万桶油当量。

Omega South 是一个试点项目,它采用了一种新的、更快的、更经济高效的海底油田开发方法,为挪威大陆架在未来几年的发展指明了方向。

斯诺尔油田自1992年开始生产,并持续获得新的产量,最近一次是在2020年启动了斯诺尔扩建项目。这项海底开发项目新增了2亿桶原油产量,并将油田的寿命延长至2040年以后。新发现的欧米茄南油田现在可以接入该基础设施,这也有助于降低总开发成本。

Equinor finds oil in Snorre area, eyes tieback

Equinor and its partners have made a commercial oil discovery in the Snorre area in the North Sea. The partnership has already planned for a rapid, cost‑effective development.

The well, drilled by the Deepsea Atlantic rig, has confirmed hydrocarbons. Preliminary volume estimate is 25–89 million barrels of recoverable oil equivalents.

Omega South is a pilot for a new, faster and more cost-efficient approach to developing subsea fields, showing the way for how the Norwegian continental shelf will evolve in the years to come.

The Snorre field has been producing since 1992 and has continued to receive new volumes, most recently with the start‑up of the Snorre Expansion Project in 2020. This subsea development added 200 million barrels and extended the field’s lifetime beyond 2040. The new Omega South discovery can now be tied into this infrastructure, which also helps reduce the total development cost.
