據今日石油2021年5月10日里約熱內盧報道，巴西國家石油管理局勘探部門主管Marina Abelha在4月28日舉行的網絡研討會上表示，由于石油公司增加勘探活動，冠狀病毒疫情大流行減弱，巴西國家石油管理局預計今年在巴西沿海鉆取的勘探井數量將增加近三倍，達到19口。

　　在油氣行業采取措施防止海上油氣泄漏中斷作業之后，勘探活動預計將出現上升。此外，巴西國家石油管理局高管們表示，冠狀病毒疫苗的推出雖然緩慢，但正在加速，并將在2021年剩余時間達到臨界規模。

　　Abelha說：“我們看到的是，石油公司都很謹慎，但也很樂觀。”她說，巴西國家石油管理局的快速行動幫助巴西維持了針對石油行業的投資，盡管這項工作可能因大流行而略微推遲到未來進行。

　　Abelha說：“我們預計今年將好于去年?！?/p>

　　巴西國家石油管理局預計今年巴西將鉆取45口新探井，其中19口在海上。去年勘探井數為16口，其中只有5口在海上。Abelha說，今年巴西鉆井和伴隨的地震調查的投資約為12億美元，其中約5.93億美元用于海上鉆井作業。

　　Brazil offshore wells could quadruple to 19 this year

　　Brazil’s National Petroleum Agency expects the number of exploration wells drilled off the country’s coast to nearly quadruple in 2021 to 19 wells as oil companies ramp up activity and the coronavirus pandemic wanes, the regulator’s superintendent for exploration said during a webinar April 28.

　　The expected upswing in exploration activity came after the industry implemented measures to guard against offshore outbreaks that can disrupt operations. In addition, coronavirus vaccine rollouts, while slow, are accelerating and should reach critical mass through the remainder of 2021, executives said.

　　“What we’re seeing is that companies are cautious, but optimistic,” the ANP’s Marina Abelha, said. The agency’s quick actions helped maintain oil industry investments targeted for Brazil although the work was likely pushed slightly into the future by the pandemic, she said.

　　“We expect 2021 to be better than 2020,” Abelha said.

　　The ANP expects 45 wells to be drilled in 2021, with 19 offshore, according to Abelha. That would be up from a total of 16 wells in 2020, including just five offshore. The drilling and accompanying seismic surveys represent about $1.2 billion worth of investments in 2021, with about $593 million of that devoted to offshore work, Abelha said.
