據(jù)世界石油3月1日消息稱，海王星能源公司及其合作伙伴宣布，已經(jīng)開始在挪威北海地區(qū)的哈姆雷特探井進(jìn)行鉆井作業(yè)。

該井（35/9-16S）正在由CIMC擁有并由Odfjell Drilling運(yùn)營的半潛式鉆井平臺Deepsea Yantai進(jìn)行鉆探。哈姆雷特勘探區(qū)位于 Gj?a 油田以北7公里處，在海王星運(yùn)營的 PL153 許可證內(nèi)。

挪威海王星能源公司的地下主管Steinar Meland說：“哈姆雷特是一個有趣的前景，它符合我們的勘探戰(zhàn)略，即關(guān)注現(xiàn)有基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施附近核心區(qū)域內(nèi)的機(jī)會。這可以縮短從發(fā)現(xiàn)到生產(chǎn)的交貨時間，降低成本和碳排放，并有助于我們現(xiàn)有許可證的成熟和補(bǔ)充。”

哈姆雷特位于挪威Flor?以西 58 公里處，水深 358 米（190 英尺），位于海王星的核心區(qū)域之一，靠近現(xiàn)有基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。儲層目標(biāo)是下白堊統(tǒng) Agat 組，預(yù)計深度約為 2600 米。

該鉆井方案包括主井(35/9-16S)和根據(jù)探井結(jié)果可選的側(cè)鉆(35/9-16A)。

Neptune Energy begins drilling Hamlet exploration well

Neptune Energy and partners announced drilling has commenced on the Hamlet exploration well in the Norwegian sector of the North Sea.

The well (35/9-16S) is being drilled by the Deepsea Yantai, a semi-submersible rig, owned by CIMC and operated by Odfjell Drilling. The Hamlet prospect is located 7 km north of the Gj?a field within the Neptune-operated PL153 Licence.

“Hamlet is an interesting prospect and it is in keeping with our exploration strategy of focusing on opportunities within core areas near existing infrastructure,” said Steinar Meland, Neptune Energy’s Director of Subsurface in Norway. “This can offer a short lead time from discovery to production, reduce costs and carbon emissions?and help mature and replenish our current licenses."

Located 58 kilometers (36 miles) west of Flor?, Norway, at a water depth of 358 meters (190 feet), Hamlet is positioned in one of Neptune’s core areas and close to existing infrastructure. The reservoir target is the Lower Cretaceous Agat Formation and is expected to be reached at a depth of approximately 2,600 metres.

The drilling program comprises a main-bore (35/9-16S) with an optional side-track (35/9-16A) based on the outcome of the exploration well.
