据WENews.com网站8月30日伦敦报道，丹麦能源监管机构周四在大幅下调长期石油产量预期后表示，由于北海石油产量持续下滑，丹麦作为石油净出口国长达25年的历史将在今年结束。
丹麦能源署预计，丹麦今年的石油日产量将下降到12.8万桶，低于去年的13.8万桶，比一年前的估计数低了10%。
丹麦石油产量预测下降的原因是北海资源的向下调整以及几个油田和发现的开发工作的拖延和更大的不确定性。
自1993年以来，丹麦一直是石油净出口国，当时诸如水平钻井那样的技术的开发使得开采北海难以动用储量变得可能。丹麦的石油日产量在2004年曾达到顶峰的39万桶。

Denmark Swings to Net Oil importer as North Sea Production Dips
A 25-year period for Denmark as a net oil exporter is set to end this year following output declines in the North Sea, the country's energy agency said The Danish Energy Agency expects this year's oil production to reach 128,000 barrels per day (bpd), down from 138,000 bpd last year and 10 percent lower than an estimate given a year ago.
The lower production forecast was due to downward adjustments of North Sea resources, as well as delays and greater uncertainty regarding the development of several fields and discoveries.
Denmark has been a net oil exporter since 1993, when technological developments such as horizontal drilling made it possible to extract difficult reserves in the North Sea. Production peaked in 2004 at 390,000 bpd.
