據(jù)油價(jià)網(wǎng)2021年6月14日?qǐng)?bào)道，沙特阿拉伯是石油的代名詞，歐盟癡迷于可再生能源，而美國(guó)是世界上最大的天然氣生產(chǎn)國(guó)，但很少有國(guó)家像阿拉伯聯(lián)合酋長(zhǎng)國(guó)那樣積極地追求這三種能源。

　　在國(guó)際能源署(IEA)的鼓勵(lì)下，大多數(shù)西方國(guó)家正在避免使用化石燃料，而全球能源需求仍在持續(xù)增長(zhǎng)。如果沒有足夠的可再生能源開發(fā)來滿足這一需求，阿聯(lián)酋正在承認(rèn)自己在石油和天然氣領(lǐng)域的世界領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者地位，而在未來10年乃至更長(zhǎng)的時(shí)間里，世界仍然非常需要石油和天然氣。

　　通過Belbazem海上區(qū)塊的全面開發(fā)，阿布扎比正在進(jìn)一步擴(kuò)大其業(yè)已強(qiáng)大的石油行業(yè)，預(yù)計(jì)未來幾年的巨額投資將提高本國(guó)的石油產(chǎn)量。

　　這份合同涵蓋了Belbazem、Umm Al Salsal和Umm Al Dholou等海上邊際油田。預(yù)計(jì)從2023年開始，該開發(fā)項(xiàng)目中的海上設(shè)施將日產(chǎn)4.5萬桶輕質(zhì)原油。

　　由于Adnoc的國(guó)內(nèi)價(jià)值(ICV)計(jì)劃符合公司2030年戰(zhàn)略，預(yù)計(jì)約65%的合同價(jià)值將直接進(jìn)入阿聯(lián)酋經(jīng)濟(jì)。

　　阿聯(lián)酋Adnoc明確表示，將在未來10年增加石油產(chǎn)量，部分原因是石油需求在經(jīng)歷了一年的停滯后出現(xiàn)反彈，但也因?yàn)閾?dān)心需求在本10年晚些時(shí)候達(dá)到峰值。

　　然而，這并不是阿聯(lián)酋關(guān)注的唯一焦點(diǎn)。作為阿聯(lián)酋從石油轉(zhuǎn)向多元化的計(jì)劃的一部分，其天然氣行業(yè)正變得越來越強(qiáng)大。事實(shí)上，阿聯(lián)酋的目標(biāo)是到2030年前實(shí)現(xiàn)天然氣供應(yīng)自給自足。

　　今年早些時(shí)候在阿布扎比酋長(zhǎng)國(guó)和迪拜酋長(zhǎng)國(guó)之間發(fā)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)天然氣田，這是過去15年來發(fā)現(xiàn)的同類氣田中最大的一個(gè)氣田。Jebel Ali氣田對(duì)阿聯(lián)酋來說是一個(gè)鼓舞人心的發(fā)現(xiàn)，有潛力滿足該國(guó)長(zhǎng)達(dá)30年的天然氣需求。此外，沙迦酋長(zhǎng)國(guó)還宣布發(fā)現(xiàn)陸上天然氣，這是上世紀(jì)80年代初以來的首次天然氣發(fā)現(xiàn)。

　　盡管阿聯(lián)酋的傳統(tǒng)能源行業(yè)持續(xù)繁榮，但它并沒有回避替代能源的開發(fā)。事實(shí)上，阿布扎比希望在未來十年成為世界上綠色氫燃料的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者。

　　目前，Adnoc已經(jīng)為其下游業(yè)務(wù)生產(chǎn)氫氣。然而，去年11月，阿布扎比王儲(chǔ)謝赫穆罕默德·本·扎耶德下達(dá)了一項(xiàng)命令，鼓勵(lì)A(yù)dnoc從天然氣中提取的氫和氨，以滿足日益增長(zhǎng)的國(guó)際需求。

　　Adnoc將通過傳統(tǒng)能源生產(chǎn)中的碳捕獲，以及利用可再生能源的電解法從水中提取氫氣，來探索該國(guó)的藍(lán)色氫和綠色氫能源潛力。為此，位于迪拜的穆罕默德·本·拉希德·阿勒馬克圖姆太陽能園區(qū)有望成為中東地區(qū)的第一個(gè)通過太陽能發(fā)電提供電力的氫氣廠。

　　阿聯(lián)酋不僅在繼續(xù)發(fā)展其激烈的石油工業(yè)，而且該國(guó)旨在實(shí)現(xiàn)能源工業(yè)和經(jīng)濟(jì)的多元化，這意味著天然氣的顯著進(jìn)步，以及氫等先進(jìn)的綠色能源。這當(dāng)然是阿聯(lián)酋未來幾年值得關(guān)注的問題。

　　The UAE Is Poised To Become The Next Middle East Energy Giant

　　Saudi Arabia is synonymous with oil, the EU is obsessed with renewable energy, and the U.S. is the world's leading natural gas producer, but there are few countries pursuing all three of these energy sources with as much vigor as the UAE.

　　While much of the West, encouraged by the International Energy Agency (IEA) aim for net-zero, is shunning fossil fuels, energy demand continues to rise across the globe. Without sufficient renewable energy development to meet this demand, the UAE is acknowledging its position as a world leader in oil and gas, which are still very much still needed to power the world over the next decade and beyond.

　　Abu Dhabi is further expanding upon its already strong oil industry through the full-field development of its Belbazem offshore block, with heavy investment expected to boost oil output in the coming years.

　　The contract covers the marginal offshore fields Belbazem, Umm Al Salsal, and Umm Al Dholou. It is expected that offshore facilities in the development will produce 45,000 bpd of light crude starting in 2023.

　　Around 65 percent of the award value is expected to go directly into the UAE economy thanks to the Adnoc’s In-Country Value (ICV) program in line with the company’s 2030 strategy.

　　The UAE’s Adnoc has been clear in its plans to ramp up oil production over the coming decade, partly due to the rebound in oil demand following a year of stagnation, but also due to fears of a demand peak later this decade.

　　However, this is not the country’s only focus. As part of the UAE’s plan to diversify away from oil, its gas industry is going from strength to strength. In fact, the state is aiming to become self-sufficient in gas supply by 2030.

　　The discovery of a natural gas reservoir earlier this year, situated between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, was the biggest of its kind from the last 15 years. The Jebel Ali reservoir presents an optimistic find for the UAE, with the potential to meet the country’s gas needs for up to 30 years. In addition, the Sharjah emirate also announced an onshore gas discovery, its first since the early 1980s.

　　While the UAE’s traditional energy sector continues to boom, it isn’t shying away from alternative energy developments. In fact, Abu Dhabi is hoping to become a world leader in green hydrogen fuel over the next decade.

　　At present, Adnoc already produces hydrogen for its downstream operations. However, last November Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed delivered a mandate encouraging the exploration of hydrogen and ammonia derived from natural gas, to meet increasing international demand.

　　Adnoc will explore the country’s blue and green hydrogen energy potential, through carbon capture in traditional energy production, as well as the extraction of gas from water using electrolysis fuelled by renewable sources. To this end, the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park, based in Dubai, is expected to be the first solar-powered hydrogen plant in the Middle Eastern region.

　　Not only is the UAE continuing to develop its fierce oil industry, the country’s aim to diversify its energy industry and economy has meant significant advances in gas, as well as cutting edge green energies such as hydrogen. This is certainly one to watch over the coming years.
