（WO）——美国内政部已启动对位于加利福尼亚州文图拉县近海约 8.8 英里处的 吉尔达平台拟议海上油井增产计划的快速环境审查。

本次审查将评估一项计划，该计划拟对 DCOR 运营的圣克拉拉单元内的 16 口现有油井进行水力压裂，作为该油田开发和生产计划更新的一部分。

美国海洋能源管理局（BOEM）发布了环境影响报告书（EIS）编制意向通知，启动了根据修订后的《国家环境政策法》（NEPA）程序进行的审查，该程序与国家能源紧急状态相关。预计该流程将在约28天内以加快的时间表完成。

“这项 NEPA 分析对于我们决定是否更新开发计划至关重要，”代理BOEM 主任 Matt Giacona表示，并指出最近的变化旨在简化环境审查，同时保持监督。

Gilda 平台于 1981 年安装，迄今为止已生产超过 4260 万桶石油和 517 亿立方英尺天然气。

现已开放为期 10 天的公众意见征询期，并定于 3 月 24 日举行线上会议。

(WO) - The U.S. Department of the Interior has initiated a fast-tracked environmental review of a proposed offshore well stimulation program at Platform Gilda, located about 8.8 miles offshore Ventura County, California. 

The review will evaluate a plan to use hydraulic fracturing on 16 existing wells within the Santa Clara Unit, operated by DCOR, as part of an update to the field’s development and production plan.

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) issued a Notice of Intent to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), launching the review under revised NEPA procedures tied to a national energy emergency. The process is expected to be completed on an accelerated timeline of roughly 28 days.

“This NEPA analysis is essential to informing our decision on the proposed update to the development plan,” said Acting BOEM Director Matt Giacona, noting that recent changes are intended to streamline environmental reviews while maintaining oversight.

Platform Gilda, installed in 1981, has produced more than 42.6 MMbbl of oil and 51.7 Bcf of natural gas to date.

A 10-day public scoping period is now open, with a virtual meeting scheduled for March 24.
