中国石化新闻网讯 据海外媒体11月19日挪威斯塔万格报道,中欧地区最大油气集团奥地利油气集团(OMV)周四在维也纳表示,OMV日前在挪威海上最北端的石油发现,巴伦支海获得的维斯廷发现可能拥有10多亿桶油当量的油气储量,这有可能使其成为挪威北极迄今为止获得的最大油气发现。
如果这个估计数得到证实,这将进一步提高这个偏僻地区的吸引力。这个偏僻地区与北极其他部分不同,它是一个不冻地区。然而,北极的油气勘探作业面临环保组织的强烈反对。
OMV挪威分公司主管戴维?拉丁日前在一次能源会议上说,OMV与其合作伙伴将继续勘探这个地区并打算在2019年或2020年决定是否开发这个发现。

OMV Says Wisting Arctic Discovery May Exceed 1B Barrels

STAVANGER, Norway - Energy firm OMV's Wisting discovery in the Barents Sea, the northernmost oil find off Norway, could contain more than one billion barrels of oil equivalents, it said on Thursday, potentially making it the largest find in the Norwegian Arctic so far.
If the estimates are confirmed, this would further boost the attractiveness of the remote region which, unlike other parts of the Arctic, is ice-free. However, exploration in the Arctic has faced strong opposition from environmental groups.
OMV and its partners continue to explore the area and aim to decide on whether to develop the discovery in 2019 or 2020, OMV's Norway chief David Latin told an energy conference.
