俄罗斯石油公司发现新的油气田

据7月24日Neftegaz.Ru消息：俄罗斯最大的原油生产商俄罗斯石油公司7月23日表示，该公司在俄罗斯北部的沃斯托克石油项目中发现了一块新油气田，储量估计为2,000万吨，约合1.46亿桶石油和10亿立方米天然气。

沃斯托克石油公司将其大量资源与通往欧洲和亚洲市场的“北海航线”连接起来。“北海航线”是俄罗斯开发的重点项目。

尽管北极地区的石油生产成本高、气候条件恶劣、生态问题严重，而且受到制裁，但俄罗斯仍在推动对北极地区进行更大的开发。今年早些时候，俄罗斯政府批准了免税政策，以刺激北极上游的石油和天然气开发。

俄罗斯石油公司估计，沃斯托克石油的资源基础约为50亿吨轻质低硫油。该项目包括Vankor集群，Zapadno -Irkinsky区块，Payakhskaya油田群和East Taimyr集群。

该公司此前表示，此项目可能在2024年向全球市场供应2500万吨石油。到2027年可能增加到5000万吨，2030年将增加到1.15亿吨。该公司已与印度和西方投资者就加入该项目进行了谈判。

这块新油田名为Novoogennoye，位于克拉斯诺亚尔斯克地区和亚马尔-涅涅茨自治区的边界上。俄罗斯石油公司表示，该油田进一步勘探的设计文件和商业开发筹备工作目前正在准备中。

发现该油田的俄罗斯石油公司Vankor正在38个获得许可的区块进行勘探工作，此前还发现了Baikalovskoye、Ichemminskoye和Gorchinskoye油田。据估计，自2009年开始商业开采以来，Vankor矿区的资源潜力增加了一倍多，其中石油储量增加了20%，天然气储量增加了54%。

Rosneft discovers new oil & gas field at Russian Vostok Oil project

Russia's largest crude producer Rosneft said July 23 that it has discovered a new field containing an estimated 20 million mt, or around 146 million barrels of oil, and 1 Bcm of gas, as part of its Vostok Oil project in Northern Russia, S&P Global Platts reported.

Vostok Oil links some of the company's vast resources with the Northern Sea Route -- a development priority for Russia that ships to both European and Asian markets.

Russia is pushing for greater development of the Arctic despite high costs, difficult weather conditions, ecological concerns, and sanctions targeting some oil production there. Earlier this year Russian President Vladimir Putin approved tax exemptions to stimulate Arctic upstream oil and gas development.

Rosneft estimates Vostok Oil's resource base at around 5 billion mt of light, sweet oil. The project includes the Vankor cluster, the Zapadno-Irkinsky block, the Payakhskaya group of fields and the East Taimyr cluster. Rosneft said previously that the project may supply 25 million mt of oil to global markets in 2024. This may increase to 50 million mt in 2027, and 115 million mt by 2030. Rosneft has held talks with Indian and Western investors on joining the project.

The new field, named Novoogennoye, is on the border with the Krasnoyarsk Territory and the Yamal-Nenets autonomous region. Design documentation for additional exploration of the field and preparation for commercial development is currently being prepared, Rosneft said.

Rosneft Vankor, which discovered the field, is carrying out exploration work at 38 licensed blocks, and previously discovered the Baikalovskoye, Ichemminskoye and Gorchinskoye fields. It estimates that the resource potential of the Vankor cluster has more than doubled since commercial production began in 2009, including a 20% increase in oil reserves, and a 54% increase in gas.
