據(jù)油氣新聞5月16日消息稱，根據(jù)一項新的上游石油法案，南非希望獲得石油和天然氣勘探和生產(chǎn)企業(yè)20%的自由股份，該法案允許部長為黑人投資者保留石油區(qū)塊。

　　本周早些時候，內(nèi)閣批準了《上游石油資源開發(fā)法案》，旨在幫助監(jiān)管南非的一個新興行業(yè)。此前，法國道達爾在南非海岸發(fā)現(xiàn)了新的海上天然氣，幫助開辟了一個新的石油前沿。

　　如果該法案以目前的形式獲得通過，將意味著大量資金流入國庫。

　　但由于氣候變化，COVID-19影響石油巨頭的投資決策，在全球逐漸遠離化石燃料之際，這也可能讓投資者望而卻步。

　　路透社看到該法案說：“國家有權擁有石油權益20%的附帶權益，包括勘探和生產(chǎn)階段。”

　　該法案將“附帶權益”定義為國家通過對石油權的利益參與，“這種利益完全是為了國家的利益，其成本由石油權持有人承擔”。

　　S.Africa wants 20% free stake in new oil and gas ventures, draft bill shows

　　South Africa wants a free 20% stake in oil and gas exploration and production ventures under a new upstream petroleum bill, which allows the minister to reserve petroleum blocks for Black investors.

　　The Upstream Petroleum Resources Development Bill, approved by cabinet earlier this week, is meant to help regulate a nascent industry in the country following new offshore gas finds by France’s Total TOTF.PA that helped unlock a new petroleum frontier off South Africa’s coast.

　　If the legislation is passed in its current form it could mean vast sums flow into state coffers.

　　But it could also put off investors at a time when the world is turning away from fossil fuels due to climate change, and the impact of COVID-19 weighs on investment decisions by oil majors.

　　“The state has a right to a 20% carried interest in petroleum rights, including in both the exploration and productions phase,” said the bill seen by Reuters.

　　The bill defines “carried interest” as state participation through an interest in a petroleum right, “which interest vests exclusively for the benefit of the State and the costs of which are borne by the carrying holder of a petroleum right”.
