石油和天然气公司 CGX Energy 和 Frontera Energy 于 6 月 28 日表示，他们的合资企业 (JV) 在圭亚那近海的 Wei-1 井发现了石油。
Wei-1 是这些公司承诺在圭亚那 Corentyne 区块钻探的两口井之一。另一口井 Kawa-1 于去年 5 月开采出轻质油气和凝析油。
在埃克森美孚公司领导的财团在过去十年中发现了数十亿桶石油之后，这个南美国家一跃成为海上石油勘探的前沿。圭亚那目前正在采取多管齐下的战略，以减少该财团对该国石油资源的控制。
Frontera-CGX 集团预计将成为下一个将圭亚那石油勘探项目推进开发阶段的财团。
两家公司于 6 月 28 日表示，该井的样本将在未来两到三个月内由独立的第三方实验室进行验证。
该合资公司还补充说，它已经完成了钻井作业，预计将于 7 月初释放该钻机。

Oil and gas firms CGX Energy and Frontera Energy said on June 28 their joint venture (JV) has discovered oil at the Wei-1 well offshore Guyana.
Wei-1 is one of two wells on Guyana's Corentyne block that the companies had committed to drill. The other well, Kawa-1, struck light oil and gas condensate in May, last year.
The South American country jumped into the forefront of offshore oil exploration after a consortium led by Exxon Mobil Corp. discovered billions of barrels of oil in the last decade. Guyana is now pursuing a multi-pronged strategy to lessen the consortium's grip on the country's oil resources.
The Frontera-CGX group is expected to be the next consortium to move oil exploration projects in Guyana to the development phase.
The companies said on June 28 that the samples from the well would be verified by an independent third-party laboratory over the next two to three months.
The JV also added that it has finished drilling operations and expects to release the rig in early July.
