據(jù)油價(jià)網(wǎng)12月20日消息：印度啟動(dòng)了對(duì)75個(gè)油氣區(qū)塊的招標(biāo)，這是該行業(yè)歷史上最大的一次油氣招標(biāo)。

印度油氣總局表示，此次招標(biāo)針對(duì)的是陸上和海上32個(gè)合同區(qū)的所謂已發(fā)現(xiàn)小油田。據(jù)上游報(bào)道，明年2月1日開(kāi)始接受投標(biāo)。

招標(biāo)條款包括常規(guī)和非常規(guī)油氣儲(chǔ)量的單一許可、有吸引力的稅收規(guī)則，以及沒(méi)有簽約獎(jiǎng)金要求。

去年6月，有關(guān)招標(biāo)的消息首次出現(xiàn)，當(dāng)時(shí)的能源部長(zhǎng)Dharmendra Pradhan表示，這將是最后一次小型油田拍賣(mài)，并補(bǔ)充說(shuō)："下次不會(huì)有DSF。將是大型油田拍賣(mài)。”

將在2月份拍賣(mài)的75個(gè)已發(fā)現(xiàn)小油田最初被許可給國(guó)有石油和天然氣公司(ONGC)和印度石油公司，但結(jié)果證明規(guī)模太小，無(wú)法讓兩大巨頭進(jìn)行盈利性開(kāi)發(fā)。

此次招標(biāo)旨在緩解國(guó)家對(duì)進(jìn)口石油的嚴(yán)重依賴(lài)，進(jìn)口石油占消費(fèi)量的80%以上。就在本月，印度石油公司與俄羅斯石油公司簽署了明年供應(yīng)200萬(wàn)噸原油的協(xié)議。印度也是中東和美國(guó)原油的主要進(jìn)口國(guó)。

11月的最新原油進(jìn)口數(shù)據(jù)顯示，日均進(jìn)口量為408萬(wàn)桶，高于10月份的396萬(wàn)桶/天。其中，293萬(wàn)桶/天來(lái)自中東生產(chǎn)商。北美和南美的原油進(jìn)口量降至不足70萬(wàn)桶/天。

這是自6年前該政策出臺(tái)以來(lái)，第三次提供已發(fā)現(xiàn)的小油田。在前兩次招標(biāo)中，該州授予了54個(gè)區(qū)塊的許可證，吸引了17.6億美元的投資。

India Launches Biggest Its Biggest Ever Oil Tender

India launched a tender for 75 oil and gas blocks—the biggest oil and gas tender in the history of its industry.

The tender is for so-called discovered small fields, or DSFs, across 32 contract areas both onshore and offshore, the Indian Directorate General of Hydrocarbons said. Bids will begin being accepted on February 1 next year, Upstream reported.

The terms of the tender include a single license for conventional and unconventional hydrocarbon reserves, and attractive tax rules, as well as the absence of a signing bonus requirement.

News of the tender first emerged last year in June, when then Energy Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said this would be the last auction of small fields and added, "There will be no DSF next time. Next time, it will be a 'major' round (auction of large fields)."

The 75 discovered small fields to be auctioned in February were initially licensed to state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) and India Oil but turned out to be too small for profitable development by the two majors.

The tender aims to alleviate a heavy national dependence on imported oil, which accounts for more than 80 percent of consumption. Just this month, Indian Oil Corp. inked a deal with Russia's Rosneft for the supply of 2 million tons of crude next year. India is also a major importer of Middle Eastern and U.S. crude.

The latest crude oil import figures for November show average intakes of 4.08 million barrels daily, up from 3.96 million bpd in October. Of this, 2.93 million bpd came from Middle Eastern producers. imports from North and South America went down to less than 700,000 bpd.

This is the third offering of discovered small fields since the policy was introduced six years ago. In the first two tenders, the state awarded licenses for 54 blocks, attracting investments of $1.76 billion.
