據(jù)世界石油2月15日消息稱，數(shù)據(jù)分析公司GlobalData表示，上游行業(yè)預(yù)計將在未來四年內(nèi)主導(dǎo)英國的新項目數(shù)量，占預(yù)計在此期間啟動的項目總數(shù)的70%以上。

GlobalData的報告《到2026年歐洲石油和天然氣項目展望——所有新建和擴建項目的發(fā)展階段、產(chǎn)能、資本支出和承包商細節(jié)》顯示，預(yù)計將有105個項目在英國開始運營。其中，上游(油田)項目數(shù)量最多，為77個，中游項目22個，煉油和石化項目分別為4個和2個。

GlobalData 石油和天然氣分析師 Teja Pappoppula 表示：“在英國，只有上游（油田）行業(yè)仍有巨大的發(fā)展空間。北海淺水區(qū)繼續(xù)為投資者提供重要的機會，并且是該國即將到來的油氣生產(chǎn)項目的重點領(lǐng)域。盡管 2020 年因新冠疫情而放緩，但英國北海仍在計劃幾個新項目，并有可能部分抵消該國的產(chǎn)量下降。”

在英國即將投產(chǎn)的項目中，Rose Bank是一個關(guān)鍵項目，總產(chǎn)能為12.1萬桶油當量/天。該項目位于設(shè)得蘭群島西部的深水區(qū)，將開發(fā)大量未開發(fā)的石油和天然氣資源，并為英國的能源安全做出貢獻。

Pappoppula表示:“英國大部分即將投產(chǎn)的項目仍處于可行性或前端工程設(shè)計(FEED)階段。英國近期的油氣產(chǎn)量前景取決于這些項目的成功實施，因為一些現(xiàn)有的成熟油田的產(chǎn)量隨著其壽命的結(jié)束而持續(xù)下降。因此，如果即將到來的項目也不成功，那么產(chǎn)量將進一步下降。”

Globaldata: Upstream sector dominates UK oil and gas projects starts by 2026

The upstream sector is forecasted to dominate the upcoming projects count in the UK during the next four years, accounting for more than 70% of the total projects starts anticipated during that time, says GlobalData, a data and analytics company.

GlobalData’s report, ‘Europe Oil and Gas Projects Outlook to 2026 - Development Stage, Capacity, Capex and Contractor Details of All New Build and Expansion Projects,’ reveals that 105 projects are expected to commence operations in the UK. Out of these, upstream (fields) projects would be the highest with 77, midstream with 22, with refinery and petrochemicals at four and two, respectively.

“In the UK, only the upstream (fields) sector continues to offer significant scope for development,” said Teja Pappoppula, Oil & Gas Analyst at GlobalData. “Shallow waters of the North Sea continue to provide significant opportunities to investors and is the focal area for upcoming oil and gas production projects in the country. Despite the COVID-induced slowdown in 2020, several new projects are being planned in the UK North Sea and have the potential to partially offset production declines in the country.”

Among the upcoming production projects in the UK, Rose Bank is a key project with a total production capacity of 121 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day. Proposed in deep waters of West of Shetland, the project would unlock significant underdeveloped oil and gas resources and contribute to the UK energy security.

“The majority of the upcoming production projects in the UK are still in feasibility or Front End Engineering Design (FEED) stages,” Pappoppula said. “The near-term oil and gas production outlook in the UK is dependent on the successful execution of these projects, as production from several existing matured fields continues to decline due to reaching their end-of-life cycle. As a result, if upcoming projects are also unsuccessful then production will decline further.”
