中國(guó)石化新聞網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)油氣新聞8月24日消息稱,納米比亞國(guó)有石油公司NAMCOR在一份初步數(shù)據(jù)報(bào)告中表示,在最近發(fā)現(xiàn)的近海油田中,納米比亞擁有約110億桶石油,其中道達(dá)爾能源的Venus-1X油田幾乎占總儲(chǔ)量的一半。
這個(gè)南部非洲國(guó)家還沒(méi)有生產(chǎn)任何石油或天然氣,但在過(guò)去兩年中,殼牌和道達(dá)爾能源發(fā)現(xiàn)了深水油田后,它已成為全球勘探的熱點(diǎn)。
雪佛龍、埃克森美孚、Galp Energia等石油公司也在進(jìn)行勘探和評(píng)價(jià)活動(dòng)。
NAMCOR表示,到2035年,大量的發(fā)現(xiàn)可能使納米比亞成為全球前15大石油生產(chǎn)國(guó),并有機(jī)會(huì)在不到十年的時(shí)間內(nèi)將該國(guó)的人均國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值(GDP)翻一番。
根據(jù)NAMCOR的演示文稿(路透社周三看到了該演示文稿的副本),Venus井的儲(chǔ)量約為51億桶,而殼牌的格夫-1x井的儲(chǔ)量為23.8億桶,Jonker-1X井的儲(chǔ)量為25億桶。
納米比亞石油官員表示,這些井仍在評(píng)估中,最終的儲(chǔ)量估計(jì)可能在今年晚些時(shí)候公布。
NAMCOR表示,Venus和Jonker的開發(fā)正沿著“多階段增量”的方法快速進(jìn)行,該公司持有這兩個(gè)發(fā)現(xiàn)10%的權(quán)益。它補(bǔ)充說(shuō),殼牌的Graff和Le Rona井還沒(méi)有開發(fā)。
“初步估計(jì)顯示,到2040年,Graff和Le Rona有可能使納米比亞GDP幾乎翻一番,達(dá)到近370億美元。”NAMCOR說(shuō)。

Namibia’s offshore oil discoveries estimated at 11 bln barrels – NAMCOR
Namibia holds about 11 billion barrels of oil in recently discovered offshore fields, with TotalEnergies’ Venus-1X find making up almost half of the total, state-owned oil firm NAMCOR said in a presentation of preliminary data.
The southern African country, which has not produced any oil or gas yet, has become a global exploration hotspot after deep water discoveries by Shell SHEL.L and TotalEnergies TTEF.PA over the last two years.
Oil companies including Chevron CVX.N, ExxonMobil XOM.N and Galp Energia GALP.LS are also conducting exploration and appraisal activities.
The raft of discoveries could make Namibia a top 15 oil producer by 2035, said NAMCOR, with an opportunity to double the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) per capita in less than a decade.
According to the NAMCOR presentation, a copy of which was seen by Reuters on Wednesday, the Venus well holds around 5.1 billion barrels of oil, while Shell’s Graff-1X held 2.38 billion and its Jonker-1X another 2.5 billion.
These wells are still being appraised with a final reserve estimate potentially released later this year, Namibian oil officials said.
The development of Venus and Jonker were being fast-tracked along a “multi-phased incremental” approach, said NAMCOR, which held a 10% interest in the discoveries. It added that there was no development concept for Shell’s Graff and Le Rona wells yet.
“Initial estimates show Graff and Venus have the potential to almost double the Namibian GDP by 2040 to close to $37 billion,” NAMCOR said.
