Panoro Energy近日稱,Front Puffin浮式生產儲卸船(FPSO)已在尼日利亞海域Aje油田完成試運行,72小時測試結束后起租。石油圈原創www.h29736.cn
該FPSO于今年三月到達尼日利亞,而Aje油田從3月3日起開始出產石油。Aje油田發現于1997年,位于尼日利亞海域OML 113勘探許可區內,由Yinka Folawiyo石油公司作為運營商與Panoro共同開發。
Front Puffin能日產石油4萬桶,存儲量達75萬桶。Panoro周二表示:該FPSO還未達到目標穩定產量。到今年第四季度末,在解決相關機械問題并順利獲得尼日利亞監管機構許可審批后,日產量將維持在7千-8千桶的限定值。Front Puffin預計將于八月末產出第一批原油。
Panoro稱:實驗室檢測結果顯示,Aje油田出產的原油為高品質原油,接近美國石油協會評定的42級。目前已有多個國際石油公司和貿易商行對購買Aje原油表示出極大的興趣。

Panoro Energy has announced that the commissioning of the Front Puffin FPSO, on the Aje field offshore Nigeria, has now been completed, and the FPSO is on hire following the 72 hour test.
The FPSO arrived in Nigeria in March and first oil production from the Aje field started on May 3, 2016. The field, discovered in 1997, is located on the OML 113 license offshore Nigeria with Yinka Folawiyo Petroleum Company as the operator, and Panoro as a partner in the licence.
Front Puffin has production capacity of 40,000 barrels of oil per day and storage capacity of 750,000 barrels. Panoro said on Tuesday that targeted stabilized production rates have not yet been achieved, due to mechanical issues and Nigerian regulatory approvals. Until the outstanding issues are resolved, which could take until the end of 4Q 2016, production will be maintained at a restricted daily rate of approximately 7,000-8,000 barrels of oil. Panoro said it expects the first crude oil lifting from the Front Puffin FPSO to take place at the end of August.
Laboratory assays have been delivered on Aje crude oil which show it to be as expected a high quality grade of approximately 42 degree API and several international oil companies and trading houses have expressed interest in purchasing Aje crude, said Panoro.
