據《能源年》7月12日墨爾本報道，巴斯石油公司(Bass Oil )周一宣布，該公司已通過與庫珀能源公司就其非經營利益達成的買賣協議進入澳大利亞的上游部門。這筆價值48.6萬美元的交易包括PPL 207區塊的Worrior油田30%的權益，PEL 93區塊30%的權益，PEL 100區塊19.7%的權益和PEL 110區塊20%的權益。所有陸上資產都已探明儲量，PPL 207 的 Tyrell 油田有230萬桶，PEL 100 的 Athelstan 油田有120萬桶和PEL100 的Frostfang油田有330萬桶。

　　巴斯石油公司董事總經理蒂諾·古列爾莫(Tino Guglielmo )表示，一段時間以來，巴斯一直在尋求將其勘探、開發和生產資產多元化，而不只是在印尼南蘇門答臘盆地Tangai-Sukananti生產許可區的經營權益。此次收購將使巴斯石油公司的已探明和可能儲量增加54000桶。

　　Bass Oil has entered Australia’s upstream sector through a sale and purchase agreement with Cooper Energy for its non-operated interests, the acquiring company announced on Monday.The USD 486,000 deal includes a 30% stake in the producing Worrior field in the PPL 207 block, 30% interest in the PEL 93 block, 19.7% interest in the PEL 100 block and 20% interest in the PEL 110 block. All onshore assets all have proven reserves, with 2.3 million barrels at PPL 207’s Tyrell field, 1.2 million barrels on PEL 100’s Athelstan field, and 3.3 million barrels at PEL 100’s Frostfang field.

　　“Bass has been looking to diversify its exploration, development and production assets beyond its operating interest in the producing Tangai-Sukananti licence in Indonesia’s South Sumatra Basin for some time,” said Tino Guglielmo, Bass Oil’s managing director. The acquisition will raise Bass Oil’s proven and probable reserves by 54,000 barrels.
