雷普索尔将延长Rev油田运营期限

据离岸工程6月26日报道，西班牙雷普索尔石油公司已获得挪威监管机构的同意，延长其位于北海的Rev油田的运营期限至2023年底。

该油田是生产许可证038C的一部分，雷普索尔是其运营商，位于北海挪威区南部英国边境附近，距离Varg油田南部4公里。

此生产许可证此前的有效期至2021年4月1日，现在已延长至2023年12月31日。在此基础上，雷普索尔已向挪威石油安全局（Petroleum Safety Authority Norway）申请同意延长油田使用寿命。PSA上周五表示：“我们现在已经同意雷普索尔在Rev的运营期限延长至2023年12月31日。”。

Rev油田于2001年发现，于2009年开始开采，但随后已减少到该油田在适当的储层压力下间歇生产的程度。

该气田是使用海底模板开发的，有三口天然气生产井与英国大陆架的Armada气田相连。挪威石油公司表示，该油田于2012年开始的负压开发，导致2013年停止了正常生产。

然而，油气井生产周期很短、压力恢复周期长是可能的。据挪威石油公司网站显示，预计循环生产将持续到退役。

Repsol to Extend Rev Field Life to 2023 End

Spanish oil company Repsol has received consent from the Norwegian regulators for life extension of the Rev field in the North Sea.

The field, part of production license 038 C, for which Repsol Norge is the operator is located near the UK border in the southern part of the Norwegian sector in the North Sea, four kilometers south of the Varg field.

This production license was previously valid until April 1, 2021, but has now been extended to December 31, 2023.

"On this basis, Repsol has applied to the PSA for consent to extend the life of the field. We have now given Repsol consent to use the facilities at Rev until 31 December 2023," The Petroleum Safety Authority Norway said Friday.

The Rev field, discovered in 2001, and roduction from Rev started in 2009, but it has then decreased to the point where the field produces intermittently at times of appropriate reservoir pressure.

The field has been developed using a subsea template with three gas production wells tied to the Armada field on the UK continental shelf.

According to norskpetroleum.no, negative pressure development starting from 2012 resulted in cessation of regular production in 2013.

It has, however, been possible to produce the wells with very short production periods and long pressure build-up periods. It is expected that cyclic production will continue until decommissioning begins, information at norskpetroleum.no website shows.
