據(jù)彭博社4月11日消息：道達(dá)爾公司與烏干達(dá)官員簽署了一項(xiàng)石油開發(fā)協(xié)議，旨在將這個東非國家轉(zhuǎn)變成重要的原油生產(chǎn)國和出口國。
烏干達(dá)國家石油公司周四晚間表示，預(yù)計(jì)與該管道有關(guān)的最終投資決定將在周日宣布。
道達(dá)爾首席執(zhí)行官Patrick Pouyanne稱，這些協(xié)議的簽署對生產(chǎn)和出口管道來說是一個歷史性的里程碑，將吸引超過100億美元的投資。這是非洲大陸上將要開發(fā)的最大項(xiàng)目之一。盡管這只是2025年初石油流動過程的開始。
道達(dá)爾在該項(xiàng)目上51億美元的投資是用于罕見的前沿石油開發(fā)，隨著大多數(shù)大公司削減開支，該項(xiàng)目正在向前推進(jìn)。同時也鞏固了法國能源巨頭在非洲的領(lǐng)先地位。
合作伙伴將開發(fā)阿爾伯特湖附近的Tilenga和Kingfisher油田，以及一條1443公里(897英里)長的加熱管道，以運(yùn)輸烏干達(dá)的蠟狀原油，并出口到坦桑尼亞的Tanga港。這家法國勘探商持有57%的油田許可證，并在該管道項(xiàng)目中擁有大量股份。
道達(dá)爾預(yù)計(jì)日產(chǎn)量將達(dá)到23萬桶的穩(wěn)定水平。根據(jù)彭博社收集的數(shù)據(jù)，這高于非洲的兩個歐佩克成員國赤道幾內(nèi)亞和加蓬的產(chǎn)量。

Total Signs Agreements with Uganda on East Africa Oil Project
Total SE signed agreements along with Ugandan officials for an oil development set to transform the East African nation into a significant crude producer and exporter.
Total CEO Patrick Pouyanne was among those who signed deals Sunday, according to a broadcast of the ceremony attended by Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni and Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan. The agreements faced multiple delays since the first commercial discoveries of oil were made 15 years ago. China’s biggest offshore oil and gas producer, Cnooc Ltd., and Uganda National Oil Co. are also partners who participated.
Uganda National Oil Co. said late on Thursday that it expected a final investment decision related to the pipeline to be announced on Sunday.
Pouyanne called the signing of pacts a historic milestone for the production work and export pipeline that will draw more than $10 billion of investment. “It’s a very large development, one of the largest that will be developed on this continent,” though just the beginning of a process that will see oil flow in early 2025, he said.
Total’s own $5.1 billion bet on the project is for the rare frontier oil development that’s moving forward as most major companies are cutting spending. It also cements the French energy giant’s position as the leading player in Africa.
The partners will develop the Tilenga and Kingfisher discoveries near Lake Albert, as well as a 1,443-kilometer (897-mile) heated pipeline to transport Uganda’s waxy crude for export at the port of Tanga in Tanzania. The French explorer holds 57% of the oil field licenses and a large stake in the pipeline project.
Total expects production to reach a plateau of 230,000 barrels per day. That’s higher than the output of Equatorial Guinea and Gabon, two of Africa’s OPEC members, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
