当局已收到 26 家公司对 2022 年预定义领域奖 (APA) 的申请。
大多数活跃在挪威货架上的公司都已在今年的APA中提交了申请。申请截止日期为9月12日。
挪威石油管理局许可证管理总监卡尔马·伊尔德斯塔德 (Kalmar Ildstad) 表示：“鉴于最近 APA 流程中颁发的许多奖项，我们很高兴注意到人们对调查新勘探面积的持续浓厚兴趣。”
NPD 目前正在开始评估这些申请，重点是地质认识和勘探这些地区的计划。
在颁发生产许可证时，还重点考虑公司的技术专长和经验以及财务实力。
当局计划在新年（2023 年）年初宣布哪些公司将在 APA 2022 中发行股票。

The authorities have received applications from 26 companies in the Awards in Predefined Areas (APA) 2022.
Most of the companies that are active on the Norwegian shelf have submitted applications in this year's APA. The application deadline was 12 September.
"It's gratifying to note the continuing significant interest in investigating new exploration acreage, given the many awards made in the most recent APA processes," says Kalmar Ildstad, Director licence management in the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate.
The NPD is now commencing the work of evaluating the applications, with focus on geological understanding and plans for exploring the areas.
When production licences are awarded, emphasis is also placed on the companies' technical expertise and experience, as well as their financial strength.
The authorities plan to announce which companies will be offered shares in APA 2022 early in the new year – 2023.
