据俄罗斯媒体9月16日休斯敦报道,美国埃克森美孚公司16日在休斯敦宣布,其麾下的子公司埃索勘探和生产尼日利亚有限公司日前提前投产了位于尼日利亚海上的Erha North(EN)油田二期项目。
Erha North油田二期项目是一个深水海底开发项目,位于自2006年以来一直在生产石油的Erha油田北面4英里海上,水深3300米,距离尼日利亚海岸大约60英里。
Erha North油田二期项目包括来自与Erha North油田浮式产油、储油和卸油船回接的3个钻井中心的7口井,从而减少了额外基础设施需求。
这个项目估计将从目前生产石油的Erha North油田开发额外的1.65亿桶石油。扩建项目的高峰日产量目前估计在6.5万桶并将把Erha North油田每天的石油总产量提高到近9万桶。

Exxon Mobil Corporation announced today that its subsidiary, Esso Exploration and Production Nigeria Limited, has started oil production ahead of schedule at the Erha North Phase 2 project offshore Nigeria.
The Erha North Phase 2 project is a deepwater subsea development located 60 miles offshore Nigeria in 3,300 feet of water and four miles north of the Erha field, which has been producing since 2006. The Erha North Phase 2 project includes seven wells from three drill centers tied back to the existing Erha North floating production, storage and offloading vessel, reducing additional infrastructure requirements.
The project is estimated to develop an additional 165 million barrels from the currently producing Erha North field. Peak production from the expansion is currently estimated at 65,000 barrels of oil per day and will increase total Erha North field production to approximately 90,000 barrels per day.
