據管道&天然氣雜志網5月5日報道，法國石油公司道達爾（Total）和巴布亞新幾內亞政府宣布重新啟動巴布亞液化天然氣項目，此前該項目因新冠疫情而推遲了一年。

　　5月3日，道達爾董事長兼首席執行官Patrick Pouyanne和巴布亞新幾內亞副總理Samuel Basil率領的代表團舉行了會議，旨在共同審查巴布亞液化天然氣項目的下一步發展。

　　巴布亞液化天然氣項目將針對PRL-15區塊的兩個主要發現，Elk和Antelope的生產，這兩個發現直到2017年經過全面評估。預計這些氣田生產的天然氣將通過320 km（199 mi）陸上/海上管道運輸至Caution海灣現場，將在2條擬修建的液化生產線上液化，總年產能為560萬噸，并將其集成到Caution海灣現有PNG LNG設施。

　　巴布亞新幾內亞政府和道達爾作為運營商宣布重新調動項目團隊和其他所需資源。目標是在2022年初啟動前端工程設計，并為2023年的最終投資決策做準備。這一積極進展是在2019年簽署和重新確認《巴布亞液化天然氣協議》、簽署《財政穩定協議》和2021年2月授予許可證延期之后取得的。

　　Pouyanne表示，我很榮幸地歡迎巴布亞新幾內亞副總理在我們位于巴黎的總部審查巴布亞液化天然氣實施計劃。這確實是巴新政府致力于這一關鍵項目成功的一個非常強烈的信號。我確認，鑒于該項目接近不斷增長的亞洲液化天然氣市場，因此在道達爾的投資組合中排名非常高，我們將投入所有必要的資源。

　　道達爾和巴布亞新幾內亞當局將合作創造重大國內價值，并以模范的方式實施巴布亞液化天然氣項目，同時高度考慮生物多樣性和環境利害關系以及當地社區的權利。

　　道達爾經營Elk和Antelope陸上油田，是PRL-15許可證的最大股東，擁有31.1％的權益，與合作伙伴埃克森美孚（28.7％）和Oil Search（17.7％）一起，州政府擁有22.5％的后備權 。

　　Total and Papua New Guinea Government Remobilizing, Planning Papua LNG Project

　　France-based oil company Total and the government of Papa New Guinea announced the remobilization of the Papua LNG project after a year of delay caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.

　　Patrick Pouyanne, Chairman and CEO of Total, and a Delegation of Papua New Guinea (PNG) led by the Deputy Prime Minister Samuel Basil met May 3 with the objective to review together the next steps for the development of the Papua LNG project.

　　Papua LNG project will target the production of the two main discoveries of Block PRL-15, Elk and Antelope, that were fully appraised until 2017. It is expected that the gas produced by these fields will be transported by a 320 km (199 mi) onshore/offshore pipeline to Caution Bay site to be liquefied in 2 trains to be built with a total capacity of 5.6 Mt/y which will be integrated to the existing PNG LNG facilities in Caution Bay.

　　The PNG government and Total as Operator announced the remobilization of the project teams and of other required resources. The objective is to launch the front-end engineering design early 2022 and to prepare for final investment decision in 2023. This positive development follows the signature and the reconfirmation of the Papua LNG Gas Agreement in 2019, the signature of the Fiscal Stability Agreement and the award of the License extension in February 2021.

　　“I am honored to welcome the Deputy Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea in our head-offices in Paris to review the Papua LNG implementation plan,” Pouyanne said. “This is indeed a very strong signal of the dedication of the PNG government to the success of this key project. I confirm that this project is ranking very high in Total‘s portfolio given its proximity to growing Asian LNG markets and we will dedicate all necessary resources.”

　　Total and PNG Authorities will cooperate to create significant in-country value and to implement the Papua LNG project in an exemplary manner and taking into highest consideration the biodiversity and environmental stakes as well as the local communities’ rights.

　　Total operates the Elk and Antelope onshore fields and is the largest shareholder of the PRL-15 permit with a 31.1% interest, alongside partners ExxonMobil (28.7%) and Oil Search (17.7%), post the State back-in right of 22.5%.
