PetroEcuador将增加在ITT油田钻探以提高其产量

据石油世界期刊3月10日报道，厄瓜多尔国家石油公司（PetroEcuador）3月9日表示，该公司计划在明年完成钻探活动后，提高伊什平戈-坦博科查-蒂普蒂尼（Ishpingo-Tambococha-Tiputini即ITT）油田的原油产量。

该公司总经理Gonzalo Maldonado在一份声明中表示，ITT油田位于亚马逊东部Oriente盆地的油田，预计2021年日均产量为6万桶，今年将在Tambococha钻井8口，2022年将在Ishpingo钻井72口。

据PetroEcuador公司称，该公司计划明年在Ishpingo安装两台钻机，目标是每口井日产600-3000桶原油。该公司迄今已在ITT油田钻探了168口井，截至3月份，该油田的日产量为59471桶。

Maldonado表示，ITT项目包括在Tiputini的一个8万桶/天的加工厂，目前已完成76%。我们正在确定一些预算参数，以便在2021年和2022年继续演习，我们将继续以对环境负责的政策携手发展这个项目。

占该国原油产量80%的PetroEcuador公司去年12月份的平均产量为411057桶/日。然而，厄瓜多尔2020年全年的原油总产量平均为479250桶/天，下降9.5%，由于为期三个月的全国新冠疫情封锁和管道关闭。

PetroEcuador to increase drilling at its ITT's Amazon oil fields to boost output

PetroEcuador aims to boost crude production at its Ishpingo-Tambococha-Tiputini oilfields after completing a drilling campaign next year, the state company said March 9.

The ITT fields in the eastern Amazon Oriente Basin, expected to average 60,000 b/d in output during 2021, will see eight wells drilled in Tambococha this year and 72 wells in Ishpingo in 2022, general manager Gonzalo Maldonado said in a statement.

PetroEcuador plans to install two drill rigs at Ishpingo next year with the aim of producing 600-3,000 b/d of crude per well, according to the company. The ITT fields, where the firm has drilled 168 wells to date, were producing 59,471 b/d through March.

The ITT project, which includes an 80,000 b/d processing plant at Tiputini, is 76% complete, Maldonado said.

"We're defining some budget parameters to continue the the drill campaign in 2021 and then in 2022," he said. "We'll continue to develop the block hand-in-hand with environmentally-responsible policies."

PetroEcuador, which accounts for 80% of the country's crude output, produced an average of 411,057 b/d in December. Ecuador's total crude production for the full-year 2020, however, averaged 479,250 b/d, down 9.5%, due to a three-month nationwide COVID-19 lockdown and to pipeline closures.
