據(jù)彭博社5月18日消息,知情人士透露,BP公司正與摩科瑞能源集團(tuán)旗下的順風(fēng)能源公司就出售其英國(guó)北海海鷗油田28%股份而展開深入談判。
消息人士稱,兩家公司可能未來(lái)幾天內(nèi)達(dá)成協(xié)議。去年BP曾同意以6.25億美元將海鷗油田與安德魯油田出售給英國(guó)第一石油公司,但這筆交易因英國(guó)第一石油公司被克萊斯勒控股公司反向收購(gòu)而作罷。
BP在此區(qū)塊還擁有安德魯油田與另一處名為福爾里奇的油田。知情人士表示,順風(fēng)公司僅對(duì)荷蘭皇家殼牌運(yùn)營(yíng)的海鷗油田感興趣,目前還沒有達(dá)成最終協(xié)議,談判也可能陷入僵局。
一位BP代表拒絕對(duì)此發(fā)表評(píng)論,而順風(fēng)能源則沒有第一時(shí)間回應(yīng)評(píng)論要求。
彭博社3月曾報(bào)道,在與英國(guó)第一石油公司交易失敗后,幾家小型能源公司對(duì)這些資產(chǎn)表露興趣。作為北海重要樞紐的一部分,海鷗油田日產(chǎn)量約為1.8萬(wàn)桶油當(dāng)量;2004年是其產(chǎn)能巔峰,超過(guò)16萬(wàn)桶/天。
順風(fēng)能源成立于2016年,主要收購(gòu)大公司剝離出的油氣資產(chǎn)。該公司2018年收購(gòu)了殼牌和埃克森美孚在北海中部的特里同油田群股份,并于同年收購(gòu)了依歐格資源公司的英國(guó)海上資產(chǎn)。

BP in talks to sell 28% stake in UK North Sea field
BP is in advanced talks to sell its 28 per cent interest in the Shearwater field in the UK North Sea to Tailwind Energy, an explorer backed by trading house Mercuria Energy Group, people familiar with the matter said.
The companies may reach an agreement in the coming days, sources said. BP had last year agreed to sell the Shearwater and Andrew projects to Premier Oil in a deal valued at $625 million, but this was pulled following a reverse takeover of Premier by Chrysaor Holdings.
BP also has the Andrew field, and another project called Vorlich, on the block. Tailwind’s interest is limited to Shearwater, which is operated by Royal Dutch Shell, the people said. No final agreements have been reached for Shearwater and the talks could falter, they said.
A representative for BP declined to comment, while Tailwind didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
After the deal with Premier Oil collapsed, a handful of smaller energy companies had shown interest in the assets, Bloomberg News reported in March. Part of an important hub in the North Sea, Shearwater produces about 18,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day, having peaked in 2004 when it pumped more than 160,000 a day.
Tailwind was formed in 2016 to acquire oil and gas assets that large companies were offloading from their books. It bought Shell and Exxon Mobil’s stakes in the central North Sea Triton cluster in 2018 and purchased EOG Resources’ offshore assets in Britain the same year.
