据悉,瑞典伦丁石油公司周一宣布,公司首次从北海Brynhild油田生产出石油,这是公司一些即将投入生产的油气项目的其中一个,这些项目将显著提高公司的油气产量。
Brynhild油田原计划在2013年底投产,预计的开采期为13年。但伦丁石油今年初表示,该油田的投产日期将推迟至2015年二季度。
项目的延期导致伦丁石油在今年6月份将2014年油气产量目标调整为2.5万桶-3万桶/天,而先前的产量目标为3万桶-3.5万桶/天。
伦丁石油周一表示,Brynhild油田于12月25日开始投产。
伦丁石油表示,Brynhild油田估计拥有2310万桶石油当量的油气储量,当前的产量已经超过先前预测的1.2万桶/天的峰值水平。
伦丁石油表示,该油田的第三个开发井正在钻取,而第四个和最后一个开发井将在2015年完成。
Brynhild油田是伦丁石油计划在未来四个季度逐步投产的四个开发项目中的首个。
伦丁石油表示,这些油田项目预计到2015年底将令公司的油气产量增加至逾7.5万桶标油/天。

Sweden's Lundin announces first oil from Brynhild Norway field
London (Platts)--29Dec2014/1228 pm EST/1728 GMT
Sweden's Lundin Petroleum announced Monday first oil from its new Brynhild field in the North Sea, one of several projects coming onstream which will boost its overall production significantly.
Brynhild originally targeted first production in late 2013, with an expected lifetime of 13 years. But Lundin said earlier this year first oil would be in Q2 of 2015.
Those delays resulted in the group revising its 2014 oil and gas production guidance downwards in June to a range 25,000-30,000 b/d of oil equivalent, compared with the previous guidance of 30,000-35,000 boe/d.
Lundin said Monday Brynhild started production on December 25.
Lundin said the Brynhild field is estimated to contain gross reserves of 23.1 million barrels of oil equivalent and production is currently in excess of the forecast gross plateau rate of 12,000 b/d.
Lundin said drilling of the third development well was ongoing and the fourth and final development well would be completed in 2015.
The Brynhild field is the first of Lundin's four development projects which are scheduled to come onstream over the next four quarters.
It has said these fields are forecast to increase its production to more than 75,000 boe/d by the end of 2015.
