據今日石油網2022年9月21日報道，菲尼克斯氣田位于阿根廷南部火地島海岸以外60公里處海域。這個天然氣項目將通過3口水平井進行開發，在水深70米的一個新的無人平臺上進行鉆井作業。

所產天然氣將通過35公里長的管道輸送到法國道達爾能源公司運營的Véga Pleyade平臺，并在同樣由道達爾能源公司運營的兩個陸上天然氣處理廠Rio Cullen和Ca?adon Alfa處理廠進行處理。 菲尼克斯氣田預計在2025年初投產時，其天然氣日產量將達到1000萬立方米(相當于每天7萬桶油當量)。這個項目預計投資大約7.06億美元。 

道達爾能源公司勘探與生產美洲區高級副總裁David Mendelson表示：“這一最新進展表明，道達爾能源公司有能力利用低技術成本和低碳排放的油氣項目組合，通過利用與現有設施的協同作用，可以快速投產。”“從最終投資決定獲得的第一批天然氣不到兩年半，菲尼克斯天然氣項目將有助于維持我們在火地島的天然氣生產水平，并確保對阿根廷天然氣市場的供應。由于碳強度為9公斤二氧化碳/每桶油當量，這個天然氣項目將受益于道達爾能源公司在降低碳強度方面的技術，如安裝風力發電場和熱回收系統?！?/p>

道達爾能源公司表示，在今年4月18日，阿根廷當局批準了包括菲尼克斯氣田在內的CMA-1特許經營權，將其延長10年，至2041年4月30日。菲尼克斯氣田還將在“19640號法”特別稅收制度規定的優惠下運營，該稅法是為阿根廷劃定的一個特別關稅區的工業公司設立的。 

道達爾能源公司通過其子公司道達爾Austral公司以37.5%的權益運營菲尼克斯天然氣項目，并與溫特斯豪Dea（37.5%）和泛美Sur公司（25%）合作。

TotalEnergies makes final investment decision on Argentina gas project

The Fenix field is located 60 kilometers (km) off the coast of Tierra del Fuego, Southern Argentina. It will be developed through three horizontal wells, drilled from a new unmanned platform in 70 meters water depth.

The gas will be transported through a 35km pipeline to the TotalEnergies-operated Véga Pleyade platform and treated onshore at the Rio Cullen and Ca?adon Alfa plants, also operated byTotalEnergies. At production start-up, expected early 2025, Fenix will produce 10 million cubic meters per day of natural gas (70,000 barrels of oil-equivalent per day). The expected investment is approximately US$706 million.

“This latest development demonstrates TotalEnergies’ ability to leverage its hydrocarbon portfolio with projects that have low technical costs and low emissions, that can be brought onstream fast by harnessing synergies with existing facilities,” David Mendelson, Senior Vice President, Americas at TotalEnergies Exploration & Production said. “With first gas less than two and a half years from FID, the Fenix project will contribute to maintaining our production levels in Tierra del Fuego and securing supply to the Argentinean gas market. With a carbon intensity of 9 kgCO2/boe, the project will benefit from the Company’s technologies in lowering the carbon intensity, such as the installation of wind farms and heat recovery systems.”

On April 18, 2022, TotalEnergies said, Argentina authorities granted the CMA-1 concession, including Fenix, an extension for 10 years until April 30, 2041. Fenix will also operate under benefits provided for under special tax regime in Law 19640, which was established for industrial companies in a delineated special customs area of Argentina.

Through its Total Austral affiliate, TotalEnergies operates the Fenix project with a 37.5% interest, in partnership with WintershallDea (37.5%) and Pan American Sur (25%).
