據(jù)油氣新聞5月28日消息稱，哥倫比亞石油監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)周三宣布，該國已探明的石油儲(chǔ)量在過去一年中略有增長，達(dá)到7.5年的消費(fèi)量，該國正在尋求更多的鉆探目標(biāo)，尤其是海上油田。

根據(jù)行業(yè)監(jiān)管機(jī)構(gòu)ANH發(fā)布的數(shù)據(jù)，2022年探明儲(chǔ)量總計(jì)20.74億桶，比上年增長1.7%，即約3500萬桶。

與此同時(shí)，去年的石油總產(chǎn)量達(dá)到約2.75億桶，即每天約75.3萬桶。

今年到目前為止，石油產(chǎn)量增長了近3%，達(dá)到77.3萬桶/天。

雖然哥倫比亞的石油工業(yè)仍然是一個(gè)重要的收入來源，但政府承諾將從石油和煤炭等化石燃料轉(zhuǎn)向更多的綠色能源。

預(yù)計(jì)政府將很快就新的勘探合同做出決定，以增加新發(fā)現(xiàn)以取代老化油田。

ANH的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，與石油儲(chǔ)量不同，去年年底已探明的天然氣儲(chǔ)量略有下降，降至2.82萬億立方英尺，相當(dāng)于7.2年的消費(fèi)量。

去年全年該國天然氣產(chǎn)量為0.39萬億立方英尺。

礦業(yè)和能源部長Irene Velez指出，2022年的采收率提高了，從2021年的21%增加到23%，采收率是衡量油井可采出多少石油的比率。

Velez在聲明中表示：“我們將繼續(xù)與碳?xì)浠衔镄袠I(yè)合作，以實(shí)現(xiàn)海上項(xiàng)目?！?/p>

Colombia’s proven oil reserves tick up slightly to 7.5 years worth

Colombia’s proven oil reserves grew slightly over the past year, the oil regulator announced on Wednesday, to reach 7.5 years-worth of consumption, as the country looks to certify more drilling targets, especially from offshore fields.

The 2022 proven reserves totaled 2.074 billion barrels, up 1.7% from the previous year, or by about 35 million barrels,according to the data released by sector regulator ANH.

Total oil production last year, meanwhile, reached around 275 million barrels, or some 753,000 barrels per day (bpd).

So far this year, oil output is up almost 3% at about 773,000 bpd.

While Colombia’s oil industry remains an important source of revenue, President has pledged to shift away from fossilfuels, including oil and coal, to more green energy.

The government is expected to decide soon on new exploration contracts, needed to add new discoveries to replace aging fields. 

Unlike the oil reserves, proven natural gas reserves at the end of last year edged down, dropping slightly to reach 2.82 trillion cubic feet (Tcf), or equivalent to 7.2 years of consumption, the ANH data showed.

Gas production for the year totaled 0.39 Tcf.

Mines and Energy Minister Irene Velez pointed to 2022’s improved recovery factor – a rate that measures how much oil can be extracted from a well – which increased to 23%, from 21% in 2021.

“We will continue working with the hydrocarbons sector so offshore projects materialize,” said Velez, as quoted in the ANH statement.
