墨国油计划今年将油井钻探增加三倍以提高产量

据路透社3月18日墨西哥报道，该公司首席执行官周一表示，墨西哥国家石油公司（Pemex）计划将今年钻井数量增加两倍，以增加原油产量并扭转十多年的产量下降趋势。

据墨西哥国家石油公司首席执行官奥克塔维奥•罗梅罗介绍，这项由政府资助的计划包括在最近发现的20个油田中钻探506口新油井。这将是墨西哥国家石油公司2018年钻井数量的三倍多。

该报告称，到2022年，该计划的新石油日产量将超过30万桶，这将创下墨西哥国家石油公司(Pemex)的新纪录。

墨西哥总统安德烈斯·曼纽尔·洛佩兹·奥夫拉多尔(Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador)的例行新闻发布会上说。“在墨西哥石油公司的整个历史上，可能从未在一年内开发过20个新油田，” 

罗梅罗表示，目前原油日产量为168万桶。

他说：“我们可以预计，这一水平的生产将保持下去，并从今年开始增长。”到2024年洛佩兹·奥布拉多（Lopez Obrador）的6年任期结束时，预计墨西哥国家石油公司的原油平均产量将接近250万桶/天。去年，它的平均产量为180万桶/天。

罗梅罗说，墨西哥国家石油公司今年的生产计划还包括建造13个新的近海平台，为16个浅水项目提供服务，这些项目都聚集在墨西哥湾南端。

海上项目将由14条新的水下管道提供服务，覆盖约109英里(175公里)，以输送预期的新生产流。

另外，罗梅罗补充说，将建造三个新的钻井平台，为附近的四个陆上发现提供服务，并扩建另外九个。13条新的陆上管道也将建成，覆盖55英里(88公里)。

Mexico's Pemex plans to triple oil well drilling this year to boost output

Mexico’s national oil company Pemex plans to triple the number of wells it will drill this year, the company’s chief executive said on Monday, in a bid to grow crude output and reverse more than a decade of declining production.

The government-funded plan involves drilling 506 new wells spread across 20 recently-discovered fields, according to a presentation from Pemex CEO Octavio Romero. That would be more than three times the number of wells Pemex drilled in 2018.

The plan should yield more than 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) in new oil output by 2022, according to the presentation, which would mark a new record for Pemex, formally known as Petroleos Mexicanos.

“In Petroleos Mexicanos’ entire history, it has perhaps never developed 20 new fields in one year,” he said at President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador’s regular news conference.

Romero said oil output was running at 1.68 million bpd.

“We can expect this level of production to be maintained and that it will begin to grow from this year,” he said. By the end of Lopez Obrador’s six-year term in 2024, Pemex’s crude production was expected to average nearly 2.5 million bpd, he said. Last year, its output averaged 1.8 million bpd.

Romero said Pemex’s production plan this year also includes building 13 new offshore platforms to service 16 shallow water projects, all clustered around the southern tip of the Gulf of Mexico.

The offshore projects will be serviced by 14 new underwater pipelines covering some 109 miles (175 km) to move the expected new streams of production.

Separately, Romero added, three new drilling platforms will be built to service four nearby onshore discoveries, as well as the expansion of nine others. Thirteen new onshore pipelines will also be built, covering 55 miles (88 km).
