石油设备网讯 据普氏能源资讯2019年4月4日赤道几内亚马拉博报道,刚果共和国国家石油公司(SNPC)上游业务主管马卡亚周四表示,除非来自该国新一轮许可证出售招标的新发现得到实现,刚果共和国预计今年其石油产量峰值将接近当前的35万桶/天的峰值以及随后将开始下降。
马卡亚是在出席在赤道几内亚马拉博举行的行业活动间隙对标普全球普氏能源咨询记者发表上述讲话的。他在谈到最近签署的3份产量分成合同时说:“刚果共和国今年或明年可能会有(勘探)钻井活动。”
作为欧佩克最新的成员国,刚果共和国去年向道达尔公司、科斯莫斯公司和佩朗科公司授予了3个海上油气产量分成合同。新的深水开发项目使刚果的石油生产重新焕发了活力,道达尔公司的Moho Nord油田在2017年投产后日产量增加了10万桶。
马卡亚说,今年预计埃尼公司的Marine XII油田将进行进一步的上游加密开发钻井作业,这个油田在盐下油藏中拥有大约60亿桶油当量的储量。
刚果共和国目前出口三种主要原油等级——重质低硫杰诺原油(Djeno)、轻质低硫恩科萨原油(N'Kossa)和重质低硫优姆博原油(Yombo)——深受中国炼油企业的欢迎。

Republic of Congo oil output to peak at 350,000 b/d without new finds
Malabo, Equatorial Guinea — The Republic of Congo expects its oil production to peak this year close to its current 350,000 b/d level and to start to fall shortly afterward, unless new discoveries from the country's latest licensing round materialize, the upstream head of the state SNPC oil company said Thursday.
"There will be [exploration] drilling maybe this year or next year," SNPC's Benjamin Makaya told S&P Global Platts on the sidelines of an industry event in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea, referring to the three recent production-sharing contracts
OPEC's newest member, the Republic of Congo awarded three offshore PSCs to Total, Kosmos and Perenco last year. After declining from 320,000 b/d in 2010, new deepwater developments have reinvigorated Congo's oil production, with Total's Moho Nord adding 100,000 b/d after coming on stream in 2017.
This year, Makaya said further upstream infill development drilling is expected on Eni's Marine XII fields -- which contain around 6 billion boe in place in subsalt reservoirs.
The Republic of Congo currently exports three main crude grades -- heavy sweet Djeno, light sweet N'Kossa and heavy Yombo -- popular with Chinese refiners.
