中国石化新闻网讯 据海上能源12月26日报道，新加坡雷克斯国际控股公司（Rex International）的挪威子公司Lime石油公司完成了对雷普索尔运营的挪威近海Yme油田的股权收购。
今年8月，Lime石油公司与Kufpec挪威公司签订了一项买卖协议，以6800万美元的税后对价收购该油田10%的权益。
12月23日已完成首期付款5500万美元。延期支付的余额，包括结算费用，将在该交易完成后30个工作日内支付。
作为结算的一部分，ABG Sundal Collier已被委托从6月份设立的债券融资机制中筹集2.5亿挪威克朗(约2550万美元)。此次融资将于2023年1月进行，ABG Sundal Collier将担任承销商。该融资发行后，债券总额将为12亿挪威克朗(约1.222亿美元)。
在关于8月份计划收购的公告中，雷克斯解释道，Yme油田的产量将有助于实现其在不同地区的产量达到2万桶/天的目标。
Yme油田于1987年发现，位于Egersund盆地9/2和9/5区块，距离挪威海岸线约130公里。
然而，该油田直到1996年才开始生产。早在2001年，由于该油田不再被认为会盈利，生产停止。雷普索尔于2015年接管了该项目，并于2017年12月提交了该油田修订后的PDO，并于2018年3月获得批准。
新的开发项目包括在现有设施的基础上设计、采购和安装一个新的井口模块，在该油田安装之前对Maersk Inspirer移动式海上钻探和生产装置进行修改和升级，随后与海上现有井连接并安装在海底。
经过多年的拖延，Yme油田于2021年10月底再次开始生产，但自那以后已多次关闭。

Lime Petroleum buys stake in Repsol’s North Sea field
Lime Petroleum, a Norwegian subsidiary of Singapore’s Rex International, has completed the acquisition of a stake in the Repsol-operated Yme field located offshore Norway.
Lime Petroleum entered into a sale and purchase agreement with Kufpec Norway in August for the acquisition of a 10 per cent interest in the field for a post-tax consideration of $68 million.
The completion was concluded>As part of the settlement, ABG Sundal Collier has been engaged to raise NOK 250 million (approximately $25.5 million) from the tap mechanism in the bond set up in June. The tap will be raised during January 2023, with ABG Sundal Collier as the underwriter. After the tap issue, the total bond will be NOK 1,200 million (approximately $122.2 million).
In the announcement about the planned acquisition from August, Rex explained that the production from the Yme field will contribute to its target of reaching a production of 20,000 bpd across various geographies.
The Yme field was discovered in 1987 located in Block 9/2 and 9/5 in the Egersund Basin, approximately 130 kilometers from the Norwegian coastline.
However, it did not start production until 1996. Back in 2001, production ceased because the operation of the field was no longer regarded as profitable. Repsol took over the project in 2015 and submitted a revised PDO for the field in December 2017, which was approved in March 2018.
The new development project entailed the engineering, procurement and installation of a new wellhead module>After years of delays, the Yme field started producing again in late October 2021, but had been shut down multiple times since then.
