中国石化新闻网讯 据世界石油网2023年2月9日报道，挪威能源巨头Equinor日前在北海特罗尔油田附近获得了重要石油和天然气发现。这是Equinor自2019年秋季以来在北海地区获得的第7个油气发现。
这个发现的名称为Røver Sør。根据初步估计，这个发现的规模在1700万至4700万桶油当量之间，其中大部分是石油。这个发现的两口勘探井的钻井作业是由“Transocean Spitsbergen号”钻机完成的。
Equinor是生产许可证的运营商。其合作伙伴是挪威DNO公司、韦尔斯利石油公司和挪威Petoro石油公司。
Equinor此前在该地区获得的另外6个油气发现分别是Echino Sør(2019年)、Swisher(2020年)、Røver Nord(2021年)、Blasto(2021年)、Toppand(2022年)和Kveikje(2022年)。
Equinor勘探和生产西部业务高级副总裁Geir Sørtveit说：“靠近现有基础设施的发现对于维持挪威大陆架的油气生产非常重要。它们只需要更小的产量来盈利，并且可以快速投入生产以及低碳排放。由于这一最新发现靠近特罗尔油田和我们在该地区的其他发现，我们现在已经可以宣布它将具有商业开采价值。”
这些发现的总规模尚不确定，但各种估计的平均总量约为3.5亿桶油当量，相当于一个中等规模的挪威油气田，以及相当于位于挪威海的Aasta Hansteen油田的规模。
Sørtveit说：“Equinor已经启动了这些项目的开发，通过利用现有基础设施与合作伙伴合作，协调这些发现的开发。这个最新发现将是这项工作的一部分。”
部署在这个地区的下一口勘探井的名字是海森堡。这口勘探井的钻井结果将在3月份出来。今年晚些时候，Equinor计划在该地区开钻更多探井。

Equinor makes seventh oil and gas discovery in North Sea
Equinor has made an oil and gas discovery close to the Troll field in the North Sea. This is the seventh discovery in this area since the autumn of 2019.
The name of the discovery is Røver Sør. According to preliminary estimates, the size of the discovery is between 17 and 47 MMboe, of which the majority is oil. The two exploration wells of the discovery were drilled by the Transocean Spitsbergen rig.
Equinor is the operator of the production license. The partners are DNO, Wellesley Petroleum and Petoro.
This recent oil discovery comes>“Discoveries close to existing infrastructure are important to maintain oil and gas production from the Norwegian continental shelf. They need smaller volumes to be profitable and can be put>There is uncertainty as to the size of the discoveries, but an average of the various estimates gives a total volume of around 350 million barrels of oil equivalent, corresponding to a medium-sized Norwegian oil or gas field, and the size of the Aasta Hansteen field in the Norwegian sea.
“Equinor has started field development projects to coordinate the development of these discoveries by utilizing existing infrastructure in collaboration with our partners. This discovery will be part of this work,” says Sørtveit.
The name of the next exploration well in this area is Heisenberg. The results of this well are to be ready in March. More exploration wells are planned in the area later this year.
