???? 據世界天然氣網4月13日消息,這口井位于Green Canyon 821區塊,由BP代表共同擁有者Chevron和Talos Energy鉆井。
????BP持有50%的工作權益,是運營商,Talos和Chevron各持有25%的工作權益。
????該油田位于BP運營的Mad Dog油田以西,距離路易斯安那州海岸約131英里,水深4108英尺。
????BP及其合作伙伴于2019年底首次使用Seadrill的West Auriga鉆井船開始鉆井,但在鹽下設置套管并達到約21500英尺的真實垂直深度后,于2020年1月暫停鉆井。2020年第四季度重新開始作業。
????根據BP周二的更新,該井的鉆井總深度為23,530英尺。
????該井在一個高質量的中新世油藏中遇到了油層,其流體性質與該地區的中新世生產性油藏相似。初步數據顯示,該井具有商業油氣量的潛力。
????BP墨西哥灣和加拿大高級副總裁Starlee Sykes在評論此次發現時表示。"我們的油氣業務具有彈性和針對性,是BP戰略的核心,在墨西哥灣,我們在我們最熟悉的油藏進行投資和勘探。我們正在利用我們的地震專業知識和鉆探能力,安全地尋找和開發優勢油氣。
????"我們期待著評估這次發現的潛力及其在BP全球投資組合中的競爭力。我為我們的團隊能夠完成這個項目感到驕傲--尤其是在全球疫情期間"。
????BP本周還迎來了用于價值90億美元的 "Mad Dog 2 "項目的Argos平臺,它完成了從韓國到德克薩斯州英格利賽德的Kiewit Offshore Services制造場的1.6萬英里旅程。

????BP strikes oil in delayed deepwater Gulf of Mexico well
????The well, on Green Canyon Block 821, was drilled by BP on behalf of co-owners Chevron and Talos Energy.
????BP holds a 50 per cent working interest and is the operator with Talos and Chevron each holding a 25 per cent working interest.
????It is located west of the BP-operated Mad Dog field and is approximately 131 miles off the coast of Louisiana in 4,108 feet of water.
????BP and its partners first started drilling the well in late 2019 using Seadrill’s West Auriga drillship only to suspend it in January 2020 after setting casing below salt and reaching a true vertical depth of approximately 21,500 feet. Operations re-started in the fourth quarter of 2020.
????According to BP’s update on Tuesday, the well was drilled to a total depth of 23,530 feet.
????The well encountered oil pay in a high-quality Miocene reservoir with fluid properties similar to productive Miocene reservoirs in the area. Preliminary data supports the potential for a commercial volume of hydrocarbons.
????Commenting on the discovery, Starlee Sykes, BP senior vice president Gulf of Mexico and Canada, said: “Our resilient and focused hydrocarbons business is core to BP’s strategy, and in the Gulf of Mexico we invest and explore in the reservoirs we know best. We are using our seismic expertise and drilling capability to safely find and develop advantaged oil and gas.
????“We look forward to evaluating the potential of this discovery and its competitiveness across bp’s global portfolio. I’m proud of our team for delivering this project – especially during a global pandemic”.
????BP also this week welcomed its Argos platform for the $9 billion Mad Dog 2 project,??after??completing its 16,000-mile journey?from South Korea to the?Kiewit?Offshore Services fabrication yard in Ingleside, Texas.
