據(jù)2月25日offshore energy消息：意大利石油天然氣公司埃尼集團(tuán)已經(jīng)開始位于安哥拉深海15/06區(qū)塊的Ndungu早期生產(chǎn)(EP)開發(fā)項(xiàng)目。這是埃尼集團(tuán)7個(gè)月來(lái)在安哥拉的第三個(gè)項(xiàng)目，也是兩天內(nèi)啟動(dòng)的第二個(gè)項(xiàng)目。

Ndungu油田是在2019年5月使用Poseidon鉆井船發(fā)現(xiàn)的。埃尼周五報(bào)告稱，該項(xiàng)目目前正在通過(guò)N 'goma浮式生產(chǎn)儲(chǔ)卸(FPSO)船進(jìn)行生產(chǎn)。

埃尼集團(tuán)認(rèn)為，Ndungu EP項(xiàng)目的啟動(dòng)是該公司與ANPG及其合作伙伴合作，通過(guò)其基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施主導(dǎo)的勘探戰(zhàn)略，不斷在15/06區(qū)塊創(chuàng)造價(jià)值，形成一條快速海底回接管道，從而最大限度地利用該地區(qū)的現(xiàn)有設(shè)施。

Ndungu早期生產(chǎn)項(xiàng)目的預(yù)計(jì)產(chǎn)量在每天20000桶石油(bopd)的范圍內(nèi)，將維持N'goma的平臺(tái)，這是一個(gè)零排放和零工藝燃燒的浮式生產(chǎn)裝置FPSO，2021年升級(jí)以最大限度地減少排放，符合埃尼實(shí)現(xiàn)凈零的脫碳戰(zhàn)略。

據(jù)這家意大利公司稱，2022年上半年將進(jìn)行進(jìn)一步的勘探和劃界活動(dòng)，目的是評(píng)估Ndungu整體資產(chǎn)的全部潛力。

Ndungu EP是Eni Angola在過(guò)去7個(gè)月里在15/06區(qū)塊實(shí)現(xiàn)的第三個(gè)啟動(dòng)項(xiàng)目，繼2021年8月的Cuica早期生產(chǎn)項(xiàng)目和2021年9月的Cabaca North開發(fā)項(xiàng)目之后。15/06區(qū)塊由埃尼安哥拉運(yùn)營(yíng)，擁有36.84%的股份。

在15/06區(qū)塊之外，埃尼集團(tuán)還經(jīng)營(yíng)Cabinda North、Cabinda Centro、1/14和28區(qū)塊以及新天然氣聯(lián)盟(NGC)勘探區(qū)塊。此外，埃尼集團(tuán)還持有0號(hào)區(qū)塊(Cabinda)、3/05、3/05A、14、14 K/A-IMI和15號(hào)區(qū)塊的股份。

值得一提的是，這是埃尼集團(tuán)在兩天內(nèi)開始生產(chǎn)的第二個(gè)項(xiàng)目，第一個(gè)項(xiàng)目位于墨西哥近海，通過(guò)Miamte FPSO進(jìn)行生產(chǎn)。

Fresh project start-up for Eni in Angola’s deep offshore

Italian oil and gas company Eni has started production from the Ndungu Early Production (EP) development project, located in Block 15/06 of the Angolan deep offshore. This is Eni’s third project start-up in Angola in seven months and the second project start-up in a matter of two days.

The Ndungu oil discovery was made in May 2019, using the Poseidon drillship. The project is now producing via the N’goma floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel, Eni reported on Friday.

Eni believes that the start-up of Ndungu EP is yet another example of how the company – in cooperation with Agência Nacional de Petróleo, Gás e Biocombustíveis (ANPG) and partners – keeps creating value on Block 15/06 through its Infrastructure-Led Exploration strategy, generating a pipeline of fast-track subsea tie-backs, thus maximizing the utilization of existing facilities in the area.

Ndungu Early Production project, with an expected production rate in the range of 20,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd), will sustain the plateau of the N’goma, a 100 kbopd zero-discharge and zero-process flaring FPSO, upgraded in 2021 to minimize emissions, in line with Eni’s decarbonisation strategy to achieve net-zero.

According to the Italian company, a further exploration and delineation campaign will be performed in the first half of 2022 with the aim to assess the full potential of the overall asset of Ndungu.

Ndungu EP is the third start-up achieved by Eni Angola in Block 15/06 in the last seven months, after Cuica Early Production in August 2021 and Cabaca North Development Project in September 2021. Block 15/06 is operated by Eni Angola with a 36.84 per cent share. Sonangol Pesquisa e Produ??o (36.84 per cent) and SSI Fifteen Limited (26.32 per cent) compose the rest of the Joint Venture.

Further to Block 15/06, Eni is the operator of exploration Blocks Cabinda North, Cabinda Centro, 1/14 and 28, as well as of the New Gas Consortium (NGC). In addition, Eni has stakes in the non-operated Blocks 0 (Cabinda), 3/05, 3/05A, 14, 14 K/A-IMI, 15 and in the Angola LNG.

It is also worth mentioning that this is Eni’s second project to begin production in only two days, with the first one being located in waters offshore Mexico and produced via the Miamte FPSO.
