中国石化新闻网讯 据OE网站1月21日报道,伦敦上市的石油公司EnQuest已完成从Equinor手中收购英国大陆架上Bressay油田开发项目40.8125%的股权。其也已成为该项目的运营商。
因此,EnQuest作为运营商拥有Bressay 40.81%的权益,Equinor拥有40.81%的非运营权益,而Chrysaor拥有18.38%的权益。
正如此前宣布的那样,Enquest于2020年7月同意支付初步费用220万英镑(280万美元),作为Equinor净成本份额的50%,在Bressay油田开发计划获得批准后,还将支付1500万美元。
Bressay是北海北部的一个重质油油田,水深110米,位于EnQuest运营的Kraken重质油油田东北12公里处。该油田是英国大陆架最大的未开发油田之一,初步储量(“STOIIP”)约为6亿-10.5亿桶。
Bressay油田跨四个英国许可区块:P234、P493、P920和P977。每个许可区块都有相同的股权合伙人。Bressay油田目前的合作伙伴是Equinor(81.62%)和Chrysaor(18.38%)。
Bressay油田于1976年在设得兰东部被发现,2007年Equinor成为该油田运营商。由于当时严峻的市场环境和简化开发概念的需要,该油田开发概念的选择在2016年被推迟。
EnQuest公司在2020年7月表示,收购Bressay股份是一笔低成本增加1.15亿桶(净)2C资源的交易,具体取决于开发理念。该公司当时表示,正在考虑多种开发方案,包括通过Armada Kraken FPSO开发的与其Kraken油田的潜在联系。
该公司当时表示,如果通过Kraken开发,Bressay生产的天然气可以用作FPSO的燃料,从长远来看可以减少碳排放。

EnQuest Completes Bressay Field Stake Buy
London-listed oil firm EnQuest has completed the acquisition from Equinor of a 40.8125% interest in the Bressay oil field development on the UK continental shelf. It has also become the operator of the project.
As a result, EnQuest has a 40.81% interest in Bressay and operatorship and Equinor has a 40.81% non-operated interest, with Chrysaor retaining an 18.38% interest.
As previously announced, Enquest in July 2020 agreed to pay the initial consideration of GBP 2,2 million (USD 2,8 million), payable as a carry against 50% of Equinor’s net share of costs, with a contingent consideration of USD 15 million following authority approval of a field development plan for Bressay.
Bressay is a heavy oil field in the Northern North Sea located in 110 meters water depth and is located 12 kilometers Northeast of the EnQuest operated Kraken heavy oil field.
It is one of the largest undeveloped oil fields in the UKCS with an estimated stock-tank oil initially in place ('STOIIP') of 600 to 1,050 MMbbls.
The Bressay field is located across four UK license blocks: P234, P493, P920 and P977. Each of these license blocks has the same equity partnership. Current partners in the Bressay field are Equinor (81.62%) and Chrysaor (18.38%).
The Bressay oil field was discovered east of Shetland in 1976 and Equinor became operator in 2007. The concept selection for the field development was deferred in 2016 due to challenging market conditions at the time and the need to simplify the development concept.
EnQuest, in July 2020 said the acquisition of the Bressay stake was a low-cost addition of up to 115 MMbbls (net) 2C resources, depending on the development concept. It at the time said it was looking at a number of development scenarios, including a potential tie-back to its Kraken field, developed via the Armada Kraken FPSO.
If developed via Kraken, Bressay-produced gas may be used for fuel for the FPSO, reducing carbon emissions over the longer term, the company said at the time.
