中国石化新闻网讯 据油价网12月2日报道，挪威石油天然气公司Aker BP批准了至2028年共投资190亿美元开发挪威近海新项目的计划，将其最初的资本支出计划提高了20%，主要原因是成本上涨。
近几个月来，挪威近海油气运营商加大了产量和项目开发力度，希望在产能大国能源供应不足的情况下，向欧洲供应更多油气。然而，由于通胀压力，成本正在上升，资本支出计划正被调高。
Aker BP周五表示，在2023年至2028年间，该公司在NOAKA、Valhall PWP-Fenris、Skarv卫星项目和Utsira High项目中的投资份额将达到190亿美元。
这一投资比Aker BP今年8月计划的投资高出20%。
Aker BP发言人对路透表示：“总体成本上涨是此次资本支出增加的关键部分。”但他没有透露细节。
上周，挪威能源巨头挪威国家石油公司(Equinor)表示，将与合作伙伴投资14.4亿美元，开发北极圈以北挪威海的Irpa天然气田，并将天然气出口到欧洲。根据提交给挪威当局的气田开发计划，预计将在2026年第四季度开始生产，并生产天然气到2039年。
政府的最新估计显示，挪威2022年的天然气产量预计将比2021年增长8%。挪威的天然气供应约占欧盟和英国天然气消费量的25%。
今年夏天，挪威当局批准了运营商的申请，要求提高几个正在运营的天然气田的产量，以实现更高的天然气产量。与此同时，挪威的主要合作伙伴欧盟(EU)和英国都在冬季到来之前争夺天然气。挪威能源和石油部批准了挪威大陆架运营商的申请，允许Troll、Gina Krog、Duva、Oseberg、Åsgard和Mikkel油田提高天然气产量。该部门还向Nova气田颁发了生产许可证，预计该气田将在不久的将来投产。

Aker BP To Invest $19 Billion In Offshore Oil Projects In Norway
Norway’s oil and gas firm Aker BP approved plans to invest $19 billion in developing new projects offshore Norway by 2028, raising its initial capital expenditure plan by 20%, mostly due to cost inflation.
Oil and gas operators offshore Norway have ramped up production and project developments in recent months as they look to supply more oil and gas to Europe in the absence of energy supply. However, costs are rising due to inflationary pressures, and capital expenditure plans are being adjusted higher.
Aker BP’s share of the investments in the projects NOAKA, Valhall PWP-Fenris, Skarv Satellite Project, and the Utsira High projects will be $19 billion between 2023 and 2028, the company said>The investment is 20% higher than what Aker BP planned for those projects in August this year.
“General cost inflation is a key part of this capex increase,” a spokesman for Aker BP told Reuters, without giving details.
Last week, Norway’s energy giant Equinor said it would invest the equivalent of $1.44 billion with its partners in developing the Irpa gas field north of the Arctic circle in the Norwegian Sea and export the gas to Europe. Irpa is expected to begin production in the fourth quarter of 2026 and produce gas until 2039, according to the field development plan submitted to the Norwegian authorities.
Natural gas production in Norway, which supplies around 25% of the gas consumed in the EU and the UK, is expected to rise by 8 percent in 2022 compared to 2021, the government’s latest estimates showed.
This summer, Norway’s authorities approved applications from operators to boost production from several operating gas fields, to allow higher gas production as its key partners, the EU and the UK, scrambled for gas supply ahead of the winter. The Energy and Petroleum Ministry approved applications from operators on the Norwegian shelf and allowed higher gas production from the Troll, Gina Krog, Duva, Oseberg, Åsgard, and Mikkel fields. The ministry has also granted a production permit for the Nova gas field, which is expected to start up in the near future. va gas field, which is expected to start up in the near future.
