油氣鉆機據全球能源新聞網7月23日報道,殼牌特立尼達和多巴哥(通過荷蘭皇家殼牌子公司BG International)宣布,特立尼達和多巴哥東海岸海域(ECMA) 5C區塊已開始投產。這標志著通過大西洋液化天然氣在國內和國際上輸送天然氣的一個重要里程碑。
綜合天然氣、可再生能源解決方案總監Maarten Wetselaar表示,如今的宣布增強了殼牌在特立尼達和多巴哥的彈性和競爭力。這是一個關鍵的增長機會,支持我們在該國的長期戰略以及我們的全球LNG增長的雄心。
被稱為Barracuda項目的5C區塊,是一個回填項目,短期內天然氣產量約為2.5萬桶油當量/天(約合1.4億立方英尺/天),峰值產量約為4萬桶油當量/天(約合2.2億立方英尺/天)。這是殼牌在該國的第一個綠地項目,也是自 BG 集團收購以來在特立尼達和多巴哥最大的項目之一。
殼牌高級副總裁Eugene Okpere表示,我們為我們的人民和實現這一里程碑所付出的非凡工作感到非常自豪,特別是考慮到2020年5月新冠疫情期間開始鉆探。我們的執行戰略必須進行徹底改革,以在遠程工作的同時實現我們的商業計劃。其需要巨大的彈性、適應性和承諾。Barracuda項目包括兩口海底油井(均為殼牌100%所有),一口位于Endeavour油田,另一口位于Bounty油田。兩者都與殼牌的Dolphin平臺捆綁在一起。這是特立尼達和多巴哥最深的兩口開發井; Endeavour 鉆到了2萬英尺(約合6096 米)的深度,而Bounty鉆到16000英尺(約合4877 米)深度。
殼牌現在期待著22號區塊和NCMA 4的四口井開發項目,即Colibri項目的交付。這是與Heritage石油有限公司的合資企業。Colibri的首批天然氣預計將于2022年生產。

SHELL PRODUCES FIRST GAS FROM PROJECT BARACCUDA OFFSHORE TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO
Shell Trinidad and Tobago (through BG International, a subsidiary of Royal Dutch Shell) announces that production has started on Block 5C in the East Coast Marine Area (ECMA) in Trinidad and Tobago. This marks a significant milestone in the delivery of gas both domestically and internationally through Atlantic LNG.
“Today’s announcement strengthens the resilience and competitiveness of Shell’s position in Trinidad and Tobago,” said Maarten Wetselaar, Director of Integrated Gas, Renewable and Energy Solutions. “This is a key growth opportunity that supports our long-term strategy in the country as well as our global LNG growth ambitions.”
Block 5C, known as Project Barracuda, is a backfill project with approximately 25,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d) (140 mmscf/d) of sustained near-term gas production with peak production expected to be approximately 40,000 boe/d (220 mmscf/d). It is Shell’s first greenfield project in the country and one of its largest in Trinidad and Tobago since the BG Group acquisition.
“We are immensely proud of our people and the remarkable work it took to achieve this milestone, particularly given that drilling began in May 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Eugene Okpere, Shell’s Senior VP and Country Chair. “Our execution strategy had to be completely overhauled to deliver our business plan, all while working remotely. It required tremendous resilience, adaptability and commitment.”
The ECMA is one of the most prolific gas-producing areas in Trinidad and Tobago. As part of Shell’s development strategy, the company has sought ways to access the significant volumes that exist in the ECMA and to bring them online. The Barracuda project comprises two subsea wells (both 100% Shell owned), one in the Endeavour field and the other in the Bounty field. Both are tied back to Shell’s Dolphin platform. These are two of the deepest development wells in Trinidad and Tobago; Endeavour was drilled to a depth of 20,000 feet (6,096 metres) while Bounty was drilled to a depth of 16,000 feet (4,877 metres).
Shell now looks forward to the delivery of the four-well development project in Block 22 and NCMA 4, known as the Colibri project. This is a joint venture with Heritage Petroleum Company Limited. First gas from Colibri is expected in 2022.
