據OE網站5月6日報道，法國石油巨頭道達爾已開始從安哥拉近海的Zinia二期項目生產石油，該項目與現有的Pazflor FPSO相連。

　　Zinia二期項目包括9口井的鉆探，預計到2022年年中日產量將達到4萬桶。

　　Zinia二期項目位于距安哥拉海岸約150公里、水深600 - 1200米的海域處，其石油儲量約為6500萬桶。

　　道達爾稱，該項目的開發按計劃進行，資本支出比預算低10%以上，節省了1.5億美元。其涉及300多萬工時的工作，其中200萬工時是在安哥拉完成的，沒有發生任何事故。

　　道達爾非洲勘探和生產總裁Nicolas Terraz表示，盡管疫情帶來了挑戰，但該項目的成功啟動表明道達爾致力于確保17號區塊的可持續產量，該區塊的生產許可證最近延長至2045年。Zinia二期項目反映了安哥拉投資回報率高的短周期項目的質量。

　　安哥拉國家石油、天然氣和生物燃料局（National Oil，Gas and Biofuels Agency）首席執行官保利諾·杰羅尼莫（Paulino Jeronimo）評論道，Zinia二期項目是安哥拉的一個重要項目，在適當的時候到來，以維持該國的生產。我們歡迎道達爾公司與我們在安哥拉的合作，該公司不斷與其合作伙伴投資開發該國的石油資源。

　　道達爾作為17號區塊運營商，持有38%的股份，另外合作伙伴有Equinor（22.16%）、埃克森美孚（19%）、BP勘探安哥拉有限公司（15.84%）和Sonangol P&P（5%）。該集團在該區塊的主要生產區運營四艘浮式生產儲油船，即Girassol、Dalia、Pazflor和CLOV。

　　Total Brings online Zinia Phase 2 Offshore Angola

　　French oil major Total has started oil production from the Zinia Phase 2 project offshore Angola, connected to the existing Pazflor FPSO.

　　The Zinia Phase 2 project includes the drilling of nine wells and is expected to reach a production of 40,000 barrels of oil per day by mid-2022.

　　Located in water depths from 600 to 1,200 meters and about 150 kilometers from the Angolan coast, Zinia Phase 2 resources are estimated at 65 million barrels of oil.

　　"The development of this project was carried out according to schedule and for a CAPEX more than 10% below budget, representing a saving of 150 million dollars. It involved more than 3 million manhours of work, of which 2 million were performed in Angola, without any incident," Total said.

　　"The successful start-up of this project, despite the challenges that have arisen as a result of the pandemic, demonstrates Total’s commitment to ensure a sustainable output on Block 17, for which the production license was recently extended until 2045. Zinia Phase 2 project reflects the quality of short-cycle projects in Angola with high return on investment”, said Nicolas Terraz, President Africa, Exploration and Production at Total.

　　Paulino Jeronimo, CEO of the National Oil, Gas and Biofuels Agency, commented as follows, “Zinia Phase 2 is a key project for Angola that comes at the right time to sustain the production of the country. We welcome our collaboration with Total in Angola, that keeps investing with its partners in the development of the country oil resources”.

　　Block 17 is operated by Total with a 38% stake, alongside with Equinor (22.16%), ExxonMobil (19%), BP Exploration Angola Ltd (15.84%) and Sonangol P&P (5%). The group operates four FPSOs in the main production areas of the block, namely Girassol, Dalia, Pazflor and CLOV.
