據(jù)世界石油8月19日消息稱，南非預(yù)計(jì)道達(dá)爾能源將在幾周內(nèi)提交一份生產(chǎn)計(jì)劃，利用一個(gè)高產(chǎn)的海上天然氣發(fā)現(xiàn)，這將成為增加該行業(yè)投資的關(guān)鍵部分。

南非石油管理局首席執(zhí)行官Phindile Masangane在一次采訪中表示，南非石油管理局“非常有信心”，這家法國石油巨頭將完成與國有石油公司PetroSA的談判，并完成保留許可證所需的產(chǎn)量計(jì)劃，否則許可證將于9月6日到期。道達(dá)爾能源發(fā)言人拒絕置評(píng)。

新發(fā)現(xiàn)的11B/12B區(qū)塊的產(chǎn)量可能會(huì)恢復(fù)PetroSA每天4.5萬桶的Mossel Bay天然氣制液廠，該廠已用完原料。南非還計(jì)劃使用這種燃料來擺脫對(duì)煤炭的依賴，該國幾乎所有的電力都是由煤炭提供的。

South Africa confident TotalEnergies will develop offshore gas discovery

South Africa expects TotalEnergies SE to submit a production plan within weeks to utilize a prolific offshore gas discovery that will form a key part of increasing investment in the sector.

Petroleum Agency South Africa is “very confident” that the French major will finish talks with state-owned PetroSA and complete the required output plan to retain the license, which would otherwise expire on Sept. 6, Chief Executive Officer Phindile Masangane said in an interview. A TotalEnergies spokeswoman declined to comment. 

Production from the newly-discovered Block 11B/12B could revive PetroSA’s 45,000-barrel-a-day Mossel Bay gas-to-liquids plant, which has run out of feedstock. South Africa also plans to use the fuel to transition away from coal, which is used to generate nearly all of the nation’s electricity.
