原标题：诺布尔能源今年资本预算重点是美国陆上增长

中国石化新闻网讯 据美国彭博新闻社2月12日休斯顿报道，作为诺布尔能源公司今年资本支出和产量展望的一部分，诺布尔能源公司今年将利用海上现金流来专注于美国的DJ盆地和特拉华盆地。

诺布尔能源公司董事长兼首席执行官戴维· 斯托弗认为公司的低成本供应投资组合使得转变成为可能。他说：“在去年陆上业务方面，我们通过持续削减钻井和完井成本极大降低了维修资金需求。由于我们今年专注于集中投资DJ盆地和特拉华盆地的大片相连区块，我们预计我们的资本效率将进一步提升。”

诺布尔能源公司今年的资本项目规模在16亿至18亿美元之间，比去年减少了31%，其中美国国内项目计划投资13亿美元，其60%用于DJ盆地，40%用于特拉华盆地。DJ盆地今年将完成110到120口井的钻探和完井作业，特拉华盆地还将增加50到60口井。诺布尔能源公司公司预计，这些盆地的钻井成本将比去年平均降低10%。其中3500万美元将用于与EPIC原油管道相关的充满新管线所需原油的项目，该项目将于今年第一季度启动。

由于诺布尔能源公司对以色列海上利维坦项目的开发结束，该公司今年海上开发支出将低于去年。今年大约2.75亿美元用于近海开发，其中大部分指定用于在赤道几内亚的Alen项目来推进天然气货币化。

Noble Energy targets U.S. onshore growth in 2020 capital budget

Noble Energy will take advantage of offshore cash flow to focus on drilling in the DJ and Delaware basins in the U.S., as part of the company’s capital expenditure and production outlook for 2020.

David L. Stover, Noble’s chairman and CEO credited the company’s low cost of supply portfolio with making the shift possible, saying “In our onshore business in 2019, we materially lowered maintenance capital needs through sustainable drilling and completion cost reductions, and we anticipate even further capital efficiency gains as we focus 2020 investment in our large contiguous acreage positions in the DJ and Delaware basins.”

Noble’s 2020 capital program stands between $1.6 and $1.8 billion, A 31% reduction from the previous year. The U.S. program is planned at $1.3 billion, with 60% dedicated to the DJ basin, and 40% to the Delaware basin. The DJ basin will see 110 to 120 wells drilled and completed in 2020, with an additional 50 to 60 wells added in the Delaware. The company anticipates well costs in these areas to average 10% lower than 2019. Included in these funds is $35 million for linefill associated with the EPIC Crude Pipeline, due to start in the first quarter of the year.

Offshore development spending for 2020 will come in lower than the previous year, as Noble concludes development of the Leviathan project offshore Israel. Approximately $275 million is allocated for offshore development, the majority of which is earmarked to progress natural gas monetization at the Alen project in Equatorial Guinea.
