英国石油天然气公司推进阿雷顿油田项目

据路透社3月25日报道，英国石油天然气公司(UK Oil & Gas PLC)周一表示，已经提交了一份计划申请，准备在怀特岛(Isle of Wight)的阿雷顿(Arreton)油田进行钻井评估和流量测试。

英国石油天然气公司持有阿雷顿油田65%的股份，该公司表示，在尽量减少噪音方面“花费了大量时间进行了大量研究，研究结果将很快呈现于公众面前”。

根据第三方的计算，阿雷顿油田含有1.27亿桶（P50）石油。英国石油天然气公司表示，该油田的中期可采资源量所占份额预计为1490万桶。

该公司首席执行官斯蒂芬?桑德森（Stephen Sanderson）表示：“虽然公司的主要精力仍将放在维持Horse Hill石油生产的长期持续稳定和盈利上，但我们还将继续努力，采取必要行动，确保阿雷顿石油和洛斯利天然气评估项目在当前英国局势允许的情况下尽快推进。”

UK Oil & Gas Files Arreton Application With Isle Of Wight Council

UK Oil & Gas PLC on Monday said it has filed a planning application to conduct appraisal drilling and flow testing at the onshore Arreton oil discovery on the Isle of Wight.

The application was filed with the Isle of Wight Council and, following a week-long statutory notice period, should go "live" on Friday this week. Included in the application are details of a "planned construction, operation and eventual decommissioning of a well site for the appraisal of hydrocarbons" in a three-year period.

UK Oil & Gas, which has a 65% interest in Arreton, stated that it has "spent considerable time and undertaken much research" on minimising noise and said that site "will be largely screened from public view".

It contains 127 million gross barrels of P50 oil based on third party calculations. UK Oil & Gas said its share of the mid case recoverable contingent resource volumes at Arreton is expected to be 14.9 million barrels.

Chief Executive Stephen Sanderson said: "Whilst [UK Oil & Gas's] primary focus will remain on maintaining continued long-term stable and profitable oil production at Horse Hill, our efforts will also continue with those actions necessary to ensure that both the Arreton oil and Loxley gas appraisal projects move forwards as swiftly as the current UK situation permits."?
