據今日石油網2022年3月28日報道，美國赫斯公司首席執行官約翰·赫斯日前表示，圭亞那在2021年-2025年期間的石油產量增長是前所未有的，其增長幅度如此之大，以至于超過了未來3個國家的估計增長總和。 

赫斯是在最近舉行的第50屆Scotia Howard Weil能源大會上發表上述講話的。他表示：“圭亞那到2025年的石油產量增長幅度將超過莫桑比克、伊拉克和巴西的預計增長總和。”

赫斯在會上展示了一張圖表，顯示了在此期間石油產量將增加的國家的復合年增長率。 此外，沙特阿拉伯、美國(墨西哥灣)和阿拉伯聯合酋長國也榜上有名。  

赫斯還表示，這6年的石油產量增長不僅在2021-2025年是前所未有的，而且與其他首次產油的產量增長相比，也是行業中最好的。 

赫斯利用伍德麥肯茲的數據證明，安哥拉、尼日利亞、巴西鹽下地區、美國墨西哥灣和巴西鹽后地區的深水產量上升幅度都沒有圭亞那地區預期產量大。  

赫斯說，“圭亞那對赫斯公司來說是一個真正的轉型機會，也是該行業最好的投資之一。”赫斯說，麗莎斯塔布魯克綜合設施的石油產量增長速度是業內最好的，將在未來幾年為赫斯公司股東創造巨大的價值。”

在2021年-2025年期間，預計將有3個項目投入運行。 麗莎二期項目已于今年2月啟動。帕拉亞和Yellowtail(已獲批準)預計將分別在2024年和2025年實現首次產油。 這3個項目將總共日增69萬桶原油的產能。  

一旦埃克森美孚公司麗莎一期項目的優化工作取得成功，圭亞那海上深水石油日產量將達到81萬桶，甚至更多。  

赫斯公司擁有圭亞那斯塔布魯克區塊30%的股份。

Guyana set to deliver highest oil production ramp up for deepwater plays

Guyana’s oil production ramp-up in the period 2021-2025 is unprecedented, and so steep that it exceeds the combined estimated growth of the next three countries combined, according to chief executive officer at Hess Corporation, John Hess.

“Guyana production through 2025 is set to exceed estimated growth from Mozambique, Iraq and Brazil combined,” Hess said during the 50th Annual Scotia Howard Weil Energy Conference held recently.

He presented a chart which shows the compounded annual growth rate of the countries which will see increased oil production during this period. Also included in this list are Saudi Arabia, the United States (Gulf of Mexico), and the United Arab Emirates.

Hess also showed that the production ramp-up in a six-year period is not only unprecedented in the period 2021-2025, but also the best in the industry when compared to other steep production ramp-ups occurring from first oil.

Of deepwater production ramp-ups occurring at Angola, Nigeria, Brazil’s Pre-Salt region, the United States Gulf of Mexico, and Brazil’s Post-Salt area, none were as steep as Guyana’s is projected to be, Hess demonstrated using Wood Mackenzie data.

“Guyana is truly a transformational opportunity for Hess, and one of the best investments in the industry,” Hess said. “The production growth ramp for the Liza Stabroek complex is the best in the industry and will create tremendous value for Hess shareholders for many years to come.”

For the 2021-2025 period, three projects were projected to come onstream. The Liza Phase Two project already started in February. Payara, and Yellowtail (to be approved), are expected to achieve first oil in 2024 and 2025 respectively. These three projects add a combined total of 690,000 barrels of oil per day in nameplate capacity.

They will take production offshore Guyana to 810,000 barrels per day, or more, once ExxonMobil’s optimization work at the Liza Phase One project is successful.

Hess has a 30% stake in the Stabroek block.
