據油氣新聞網6月25日報道，赤道幾內亞礦業和碳氫化合物部長兼歐佩克輪值主席Antonio Oburu Ondo正在帶頭推動赤道幾內亞的上游投資，將該國定位為勘探活動的完美目的地。

作為即將于10月16日至20日在開普敦舉行的非洲能源周(AEW) 2023會議的主題發言人，Ondo將強調赤道幾內亞取得的進展，并倡導今年及以后增加天然氣導向投資。

在今年被任命為部長后，Ondo已經在擴大赤道幾內亞上游產業方面取得了重大進展。

2023年2月，他簽署了三份產量分成合同（PSC），一份與獨立的勘探與生產公司Panoro Energy簽訂，兩份與非洲石油公司簽訂。

Panoro Energy獲得了EG-01區塊56%的股份運營權，而與非洲石油公司簽訂的合同使該公司能夠進入赤道幾內亞市場。

根據產量分成合同，非洲石油公司將分別擁有EG-18和EG-31區塊80%的權益。這些伙伴關系表明該國對合作的開放態度以及其上游行業的巨大潛力。

另一家將赤道幾內亞視為勘探熱點的知名上游石油公司是科斯莫斯能源公司。該公司專注于生產優化服務，以及赤道幾內亞已探明盆地的基礎設施主導勘探。

另外，科斯莫斯能源及其合作伙伴獲得了G區塊分成合同的延期，并且在EG-21、EG-24和S區塊擁有權益。

赤道幾內亞將自己定位為全球石油和天然氣行業的積極參與者，向國際市場出口石油和天然氣。

該國計劃加工來自尼日利亞和喀麥隆等鄰國的液化天然氣，并吸引投資者參與跨境大型天然氣中心的開發。

Opec chief to drive O&G investment into Equatorial Guinea

Equatorial Guinea's Minister of Mines and Hydrocarbons and Opec President Antonio Oburu ondo is taking the lead in an upstream investment drive in Equatorial Guinea, positioning the country as the perfect destination for exploration activities.

As a keynote speaker at the upcoming African Energy Week (AEW) 2023 conference in Cape Town from October 16-20, ondo will highlight the progress made in Equatorial Guinea and advocate for increased gas-directed investments this year and beyond.

After his appointment as minister this year, ondo has already made significant progress to expand Equatorial Guinea’s upstream industry.

He signed three producing sharing contracts (PSC) in February 2023 – one with independent E&P company Panoro Energy and two with Africa Oil Corporation.

Panoro Energy was awarded a 56 per cent sharing interest operatorship in Block EG-01 while the conract with Africa Oil Corporation enabled the latter company to enter the Equatorial Guinean market.

With the PSCs, Africa Oil Corporation will own an 80 per cent interest in Blocks EG-18 and EG-31, respectively. These partnerships signify the country's openness to collaboration and as well as the massive potential in its upstream sector.

Another prominent upstream oil company that has recognized Equatorial Guinea as an exploration hotspot is Kosmos Energy. The company has focused on production optimization services, as well as infrastructure-led exploration in proven basins within Equatorial Guinea.

Separtely, Kosmos Energy and its partners secured an extension of the PSC for Block G, with interests in blocks, EG-21, EG-24, and S.

Equatorial Guinea is positioning itself as an active player in the global oil and gas industry, exporting oil and gas to international markets.

The country has plans to process liquefied natural gas (LNG) from neighbouring countries like Nigeria and Cameroon and is attracting investors to participate in the development of a cross-border Mega-Gas-Hub.
