（彭博社）“据知情人士透露，雪佛龙公司牵头的一项旨在提高哈萨克斯坦巨型田吉兹油田石油产量的重大开发项目的成本已增加约 15 亿美元，这是一系列成本超支和延误的最新一起。此事。

雪佛龙 10 月份宣布，由于启动速度慢于预期，Tengiz 的预算将增长 4%，达到近 470 亿美元。知情人士称，这个数字现在约为 485 亿美元。由于信息尚未公开，因此要求不具名。

Tengizchevroil 合资企业的扩张被称为“未来增长项目”，已将其全面启动推迟到明年第二季度。该项目已远远超出其 370 亿美元的初始预算，而且竣工日期已较原计划 2022 年中期推迟了两次。

“engizchevroil 继续与其合作伙伴和哈萨克斯坦共和国政府合作，推进未来增长项目——井口压力管理项目的安全调试和启动，”该合资企业发言人在电子邮件中表示。她拒绝就具体预算数字发表评论。

哈萨克斯坦能源部没有立即回应置评请求。

雪佛龙拥有 Tengizchevroil 50% 的股份，而埃克森美孚公司和国有的 KazMunayGas 分别拥有该合资企业 25% 和 20% 的股份。

(Bloomberg) – The cost of a major development led by Chevron Corp. to boost oil production at Kazakhstan’s giant Tengiz field has risen by about $1.5 billion, the latest in a string of cost overruns and delays, according to people familiar with the matter.

Chevron announced in October that the budget for Tengiz was rising by 4% to almost $47 billion due to a slower than expected startup. That figure will now be about $48.5 billion, the people said, asking not to be named because the information isn’t public.

The expansion of the Tengizchevroil venture, known as the Future Growth Project, has delayed its full startup into the second quarter of next year. The project has gone well beyond its initial budget of $37 billion and the completion date had already been rescheduled twice from the original plan of mid-2022.

“Tengizchevroil continues to work with its partners and the republic of Kazakhstan government to advance the safe commissioning and start-up of the Future Growth Project-Wellhead Pressure Management Project,” a spokeswoman for the venture said by email. She declined to comment on specific budget numbers.

Kazakhstan’s Energy Ministry didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Tengizchevroil is 50% owned by Chevron, while Exxon Mobil Corp. and state-owned KazMunayGas have a 25% and 20% stake in the venture, respectively.
