原标题：埃克森美孚：圭亚那石油业将继续稳步发展

　　中国石化新闻网讯据5月1日Oil Now报道，随着全球石油和天然气行业继续从新冠肺炎疫情的冲击中恢复过来,埃克森美孚公司报道,其产量从2020年的水平上升,今年第一季度，圭亚那Liza一期开发项目的产量比去年同期增长了70%，即每天增加1.9万桶。

　　该公司负责投资者关系的副总裁Steven Littleton报告称，与2020年第四季度相比，上游产量平均每天增加了约10万桶

　　与此同时，埃克森美孚董事长兼首席执行官达伦•伍兹（Darren Woods）表示，该公司在圭亚那的投资组合是20年来最好的状态。到目前为止，埃克森美孚在圭亚那近海的Stabroek区块已经发现了18个油田，已发现的资源估计约有90亿桶。该公司还宣布在Uaru-2井获得了另一个新发现，在该井钻探过程中发现了约120英尺(36.7米)的高质量油层，包括在原始Uaru-1发现下面新发现的储层。

　　达伦•伍兹指出:“未来5年，我们90%的上游投资和资源增加，包括圭亚那、巴西和二叠纪盆地，在每桶35美元或更低的价格下可以产生10%的回报。Liza二期和Payara项目的进展正在按计划进行，而Yellowtail的第四阶段开发计划也正在进行中。”

　　值得注意的是，尽管Stabroek区块已发现的资源储量目前约为90亿桶，但这个数字预计还会增长。从Uaru-2评价井获得的积极成果进一步加强了这种乐观情绪。伍兹强调，Uaru-2证实了一个更加光明的勘探前景，这意味着更多的机会和资源，只是还没有完全量化。”

　　他补充道:“因此，我认为我们继续发展的机会非常多，我不会寻找大银行，而是会寻找一个持续和稳定的进程，将这些机会带到市场上。公司计划继续与政府和圭亚那人民密切合作，继续发展资源，并真正为圭亚那和圭亚那人民带来大量商业机会。”

　　伍兹表示，到2027年，圭亚那有可能建成10个浮式生产储油卸油装置和6个油田开发项目：“我们对在圭亚那的发现感到非常满意，我们与政府就这些开发项目进行了非常有建设性的合作。”

　　Exxon expects ‘continued and steady progress’ in Guyana’s multi-billion-barrel basin

　　As the global oil and gas industry continues to recover from the impact of the pandemic, ExxonMobil has reported that its production volumes are rising from 2020 levels, and for the first quarter of this year, output at the Liza Phase 1 Development in Guyana increased by 70 percent when compared to the same period last year.

　　This was disclosed on April 30, when the U.S. oil major held is first quarter earnings call. Vice President of Investor Relations, Steven Littleton reported that upstream volumes increased by an average of approximately 100,000 oil equivalent barrels per day compared to the fourth quarter of 2020.

　　“Guyana production increased by approximately 70 percent or 19,000 barrels per day over the same period,” he stated.

　　Meanwhile, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ExxonMobil, Darren Woods said the company’s portfolio of opportunities in Guyana is the best they have seen in 20 years. ExxonMobil has made 18 discoveries in the Stabroek Block offshore Guyana so far, and the discovered resources have been estimated to be in the vicinity of nine billion barrels of oil. The company also announced an additional discovery this week at the Uaru-2 well where drilling encountered approximately 120 feet (36.7 meters) of high-quality oil-bearing reservoirs including newly identified intervals below the original Uaru-1 discovery.

　　“Ninety percent of our upstream investments and resource additions over the next five years, including Guyana, Brazil and the Permian, generate 10 percent returns at $35 a barrel or less,” he stated.

　　He updated stakeholders on the Guyana operations, telling them that progress on Liza Phase Two and Payara are on schedule, while the planning phase for the fourth development at Yellowtail is underway.

　　The investors heard that while the discovered resource base of the Stabroek Block is currently pegged at about nine billion oil equivalent barrels, that number is expected to grow. This optimism has been further strengthened by the positive results of the Uaru-2 appraisal well. Woods emphasized that Uaru-2 confirmed a deeper play that suggests additional opportunity and resources that they have not fully quantified as yet.

　　“So, I think it’s a very rich set of opportunities that we’re going to continue to progress and I wouldn’t look for a big bank per se, I would look for a continued and steady progression of bringing those opportunities to market,” he continued. According to the Chairman, the company plans to continue working closely with the government and the people of Guyana to “continue to progress that resource and really bring a lot of economic opportunity to the country and the people of Guyana.”

　　With the potential for ten Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) units and six field developments by 2027, Woods said, “We feel really good about what we’re finding in Guyana and a very constructive engagement with the government in terms of those developments.”
