原标题：澳大利亚将成为大洋洲油气产量最高的国家

中国石化新闻网讯 据油气新闻2月15消息称，在大洋洲地区的四个国家中，澳大利亚是唯一一个预计在2020年增加石油和天然气产量的国家。

根据领先的数据分析公司GlobalData的数据，该国涵盖了未来一年的所有最终投资决策，且其中71%的项目已经开工。到2020年，与液化天然气（LNG）项目有关的FID超过一 半，澳大利亚似乎将继续保持其液化天然气最大出口国的地位。2019年是该国液化天然气持续年出口量首次超过卡塔尔的一年。

GlobalData的上游油气分析师Joseph Wisdom评论道：“特别值得注意的是，斯卡伯勒和巴罗萨两个项目即将进行的液化天然气最终投资决策，预计将总共开采约10万亿立方英尺(tcf)的天然气。但是，也有一些规模较小的项目也希望利用该国的液化天然气形势。雅科仕将是该国第二个FLNG项目，希望利用该地区闲置的天然气资产。”

在大洋洲，2020年启动的一些关键项目包括Blackwatch、Haselgrove和Sole，全部位于澳大利亚，以及位于新西兰的毛伊岛再开发项目和Supplejack。

在Sole项目中，由于维多利亚州奥博斯特(Orbost)天然气厂的竣工被推迟，以及丛林大火威胁了工厂，首批天然气在2019年第四季度被推迟。可采储量估计为2320亿立方英尺(bcf)。开发项目包括通过管道连接到奥博斯特天然气厂的单一垂直海上油井。

至于FID，2020年大洋洲针对达成FID的关键项目包括斯卡伯勒、巴罗萨、雅科仕和克鲁斯，这些全部位于澳大利亚。

Australia expected to top oil and gas production in Oceania in 2020, says GlobalData

Of the four countries in the Oceania region, Australia is the only one expected to add oil and gas production in 2020 compared to the previous year.

According to leading data and analytics company GlobalData, the country comprises all Final Investment Decisions (FIDs) for the year ahead and 71% of the project starts. With over half the FIDs in 2020 relating to liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects, Australia looks set to retain its position as the top exporter of LNG; 2019 was the first year the country’s sustained annual exports of liquefied gas surpassed Qatar’s.

Joseph Wisdom, Upstream Oil Gas Analyst at GlobalData, comments: “Of particular note regarding the upcoming LNG FIDs are Scarborough and Barossa, which together are expected to recover around 10 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of gas. However, there are smaller scale projects also looking to capitalize on the country’s LNG situation. Equus would be the second FLNG project in the country, looking to take advantage of stranded gas assets in the area.”

In Oceania, some of the key project starts for 2020 include Blackwatch, Haselgrove and Sole, all in Australia, and Maui Redevelopment and Supplejack in New Zealand.

In the Sole project, first gas was pushed back in Q4 2019 after delays in completing the Orbost gas plant in Victoria, and again after bushfires threatened the plant. Recoverable reserves are an estimated 232 billion cubic feet (bcf). Development involves a single vertical offshore well connected via pipelines to the Orbost Gas Plant.

As for FIDs, key projects that are targeting FIDs in 2020 in Oceania include Scarborough, Barossa, Equus and Crux, all in Australia.
