挪威海底采矿公司生产系统将与2026年建成

据离岸工程网3月16日消息 总部位于挪威的地震勘探服务提供商Seabird Exploration最近成立了海底矿产开采公司Green Minerals，该公司希望在油价周期影响下实现业务多元化。该公司周二表示，预计2026年其海洋矿产生产系统将就绪。

Green Minerals 表示：“公司预计生产系统将准备在2026年开始试生产。”

Green Minerals预计将于3月23日左右在奥斯陆泛欧交易所开始交易。

Seabird Exploration公司今年1月表示，Green Minerals重点将是深海开采海洋矿产和稀土元素（REE）的绿色转移关键，消除陆上开采的社会成本，同时减少环境足迹。

该公司的计划是让Green Minerals被公认为近海采矿的先驱和海洋矿产的领导者。

从中期来看，Green Minerals的计划是赢得在挪威大陆架上调查、勘探和生产海洋矿产的许可证，从而利用价值7000亿挪威克朗的资源潜力。

从长远来看，Green Minerals希望凭借挪威大陆架技术在国际上获得采矿许可证，并将公司打造成全球领先的离岸矿商。

Green Minerals' Production System to Be Ready in 2026

Green Minerals, a subsea minerals mining company recently created by Seabird Exploration, a Norway-based provider of seismic survey services wanting to diversify its business suffering from oil price cycles, on Tuesday said it expects to have its marine minerals production system ready in 2026.

"The company expects the production system to be ready to commence pilot production in 2026," Green Minerals said.

Green Minerals is expected to start trading on Euronext Growth Oslo on or about March 23.

Seabird Exploration said in January that Green Minerals focus would be deep-sea mining of marine minerals and Rare Earth Elements (REE) key to the green shift, "eliminating the social costs in onshore mining while reducing the environmental footprint"

The company's plan is for Green Minerals to be recognized as a pioneer in offshore mining and a leader in Marine Minerals.

Medium-term, Green Minerals' plan is to win licenses to survey, explore and produce Marine Minerals on the Norwegian Shelf, "thereby "capitalizing on a NOK 700bn worth of resource potential."

Long term, Green Minerals hopes to win mining licenses internationally based on our Norwegian Shelf technology, and establish the company as a leading offshore miner globally.
