中国石化新闻网讯 据能源之声8月26日消息称,Spirit能源在格罗夫发现了大量天然气,“显着”延长了北海南部气田的寿命。
格罗夫东北部开发井由 Maersk Resolve 自升式钻井平台钻探,并于昨天交付了第一口天然气。
Spirit在 1 月份宣布将钻一口新井,以期从格罗夫额外提供超过 420 万桶石油当量。
该油田位于英国大陆架上,靠近英国和荷兰的中线。
天然气在Markham J6-A设施进行处理,然后通过West Gas Transport管道系统运输到荷兰的Den Helder终端。
Spirit能源北海运营资产主管 Girish Kabra 说:“我们于 8 月 25 日从油井中获得了第一批天然气。
“产量与地下预测和钻前预估相符。
商业发现对格罗夫来说很重要,因为它开辟了许可区块内和周边的未来增长机会。
这一发现增加了储量,并将格罗夫油田的寿命从 2022 年延长到至少 2028 年。”
该井的目标是格罗夫油田未评估的东北部区域。
油井投产一段时间后,收集和分析生产数据后,将更新储量范围。
Kabra先生说:“该项目是在2020年天然气价格相对较低的情况下批准的,目的是在疫情期间支持供应链活动。
通过我们的团队和供应链合作伙伴的努力,降低了钻井成本,并通过设施的重复使用,这也有助于降低碳强度。”

Spirit Energy finds more gas at Grove field
Spirit Energy has found more gas at Grove, “significantly” extending the life of the southern North Sea field.
The Grove North East development well was drilled by the Maersk Resolve jack-up rig and delivered first gas yesterday.
Spirit announced in January that it would drill a new well in a bid to deliver more than 4.2 million additional barrels of oil equivalent from Grove.
The field is situated on the UK Continental Shelf close to the UK–Netherlands median line.
Gas is processed at the Markham J6-A facilities and transported via the West Gas Transport pipeline system to the Den Helder terminal in the Netherlands.
Girish Kabra, Spirit Energy’s director for North Sea operated assets, said: “We achieved first gas from the well on 25 August.
“The production is in line with subsurface prognosis and pre-drill estimates.
“The commercial discovery is important for Grove as it opens up future growth opportunities in and around the licence blocks.
“The discovery adds volumes and prolongs the Grove field life from 2022 to at least 2028.”
The well targeted an unappraised north eastern segment of the Grove field.
The volume range will be updated after the well has been onstream for a while and production data are gathered and analysed.
Mr Kabra said: “The project was sanctioned in a relatively low gas price environment in 2020 to support the supply chain activities through the Covid pandemic.
“Drilling was made possible by efforts of our team and supply chain partners to reduce drilling costs and through the re-use of facilities, which also contributed to lowering the carbon intensity.
