???? 據離岸工程網站4月8日消息 據路透社注意到的高盛集團證實的一份銷售文件顯示，澳大利亞天然氣生產商桑托斯已聘請高盛出售其Dorado石油項目20-30%的股權，并在西澳大利亞近海進行勘探。

????Carnarvon擁有Dorado 20%股份，包括1.5億桶石油資源（2C石油儲量）。文件顯示，預計2022年上半年將對其開發作出最終投資決定。

????桑托斯的一位發言人在一份電子郵件聲明中表示：“此次出售符合桑托斯的戰略，即分階段實施增長項目，并根據嚴格的資本管理審查股本水平?！?/p>

????文件稱，該盆地還遠未開發，擁有9.9億桶油當量的遠景資源，其中約一半為石油。

????桑托斯上個月最終批準了其36億美元的巴羅薩天然氣項目，同時還考慮出售生產Van Gogh油田和生產船52.5%的股份，以及Pyrenees油田29%的股份。

????這位發言人補充說：“對于希望早日投產的競購者來說，收購Van Gogh和Pyrenees將是一種選擇，但不屬于核心銷售的一部分?！?/p>

????Australia: Santos Looking to Sell Down Stake in Dorado Offshore Oil Project

????Australian gas producer Santos has hired Goldman Sachs to sell a 20%-30% stake in its Dorado oil project and Bedout exploration portfolio offshore western Australia, according to a sales document seen by Reuters and confirmed by the group.

????Dorado, of which Carnarvon owns 20%, contains 150 million barrels of contingent, so-called 2C oil resources. A final investment decision on its development is expected in the first half of 2022, according to the document.

????"This offering is in line with Santos’ strategy which is to phase growth projects and review equity levels consistent with disciplined capital management," a Santos spokesman said in an emailed statement.

????The Bedout basin is further from development but contains prospective resources of 990 million barrels of oil equivalent, about half of which is oil, the document said.

????Santos, which last month gave the final go-ahead for its $3.6 billion Barossa gas project, is also considering selling a 52.5% stake in the producing Van Gogh oil field and production vessel as well as a 29% stake in the Pyrenees oilfield.

????"For bidders looking for early production, buying in to Van Gogh and Pyrenees will be an option, but is not part of the core sale," the spokesman added.
