石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據斯塔萬格《World Oil》1月15日消息，在2018年成熟區域招標（APA）中，挪威架上共有83個生產許可證，33家公司獲得了所有權權益。這是有史以來在一輪授權中獲得的最大數量。
83個生產許可證中，37個在北海，32個在挪威海，14個在巴倫支海。其中18個許可證是現有生產許可證的額外面積。
當局已授予在巴倫支海和挪威海擴大的APA區域的面積。
“授權數量表明，公司認為，在已知地質和靠近現有基礎設施的地區，仍有更多的資源有待發現。重要的是，在我們附近還有平臺和管道等基礎設施的同時發現這些資源，這樣即使是小的發現也能得到有益的開發。挪威石油局勘探主管Torgier Stordal說，這些公司仍然認為在成熟地區進行勘探很有吸引力的一個原因可能是，現在大陸架的大部分都被新的和改進的地震數據所覆蓋，這些數據加上新的技術使這些公司能夠確定新的勘探目標。
在這個成熟區域招標中，參與者的環境有很大的多樣性，無論是小公司還是大的國際公司都有勘探面積。在申請的38家公司中（這個數字不包括Petoro），有33家公司獲得了至少一個生產許可證的所有權權益。

Norwegian Petroleum Directorate awards record licenses in APA 2018
Thirty-three companies have been offered ownership interests in a total of 83 production licenses on the Norwegian Shelf in the Awards in Predefined Areas (APA) 2018. This is the largest number ever awarded in one licensing round.
Of the 83 production licenses, 37 are in the North Sea, 32 in the Norwegian Sea and 14 in the Barents Sea. Eighteen of the licenses are additional acreage to existing production licenses.
The authorities have awarded acreage in the expanded APA area, both in the Barents Sea and the Norwegian Sea.
“The number of awards shows that the companies believe that more resources remain to be found in areas with known geology and near existing infrastructure. It is important that these resources are discovered while we still have infrastructure such as platforms and pipelines nearby – then even small discoveries can be developed profitably. One reason why the companies still find it attractive to explore in mature areas could be that large parts of the Shelf are now covered by new and improved seismic data, which together with new technology enable the companies to identify new exploration targets,” says Exploration Director Torgeir Stordal in the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate.
There is great diversity in the player landscape in this APA award, both small companies and large international companies are being offered exploration acreage. Of the 38 companies that applied (this number does not include Petoro), 33 are being offered ownership interests in at least one production license.
