據離岸工程網12月15日報道 Equinor的一位高級管理人員周二表示，2022年Equinor將在挪威附近鉆探更多的油氣探井，以幫助維持公司未來的現金流。

Equinor挪威勘探部負責人Jez Averty向路透社表示，公司計劃在挪威鉆25口探井，今年為16口，重點放在其現有油田和平臺附近的地區。

他說：“勘探是挪威大陸架未來價值創造的關鍵，未來價值創造是現金流的關鍵，現金流是實現能源轉型的關鍵?！?/p>

Jez Averty表示，Equinor明年將在現有油田附近（包括北極巴倫支海）鉆探約80%的探井，因為潛在的發現可能會在短時間內開發出來。

Jez Averty表示，計劃在挪威開采的25口探井預計耗資3-4億美元。Equinor公司的一位發言人表示，公司計劃明年在美國墨西哥灣、加拿大近海、安哥拉和巴西以及俄羅斯陸上的東西伯利亞鉆探10-13口井。

Equinor計劃今年在全球范圍內投資約9億美元用于勘探，但其不再為2022年提供可比的指導。

Equinor to Drill More Oil and Gas Exploration Wells Off Norway in 2022

Equinor will drill more oil and gas exploration wells off its native Norway in 2022 than this year to help sustain the company's future cash flow, a senior executive said on Tuesday.

The majority state-owned company plans to drill 25 exploration well in Norway, up from 16 wells this year, focusing on areas near its existing fields and platforms, Equinor's head of exploration Norway, Jez Averty, told Reuters.

"Exploration is the key to future value creation on the Norwegian continental shelf, future value creation is the key to cash flow, which is the key to delivering on the energy transition," he said.

Equinor will drill about 80% of its exploration wells next year near existing fields, including in the Arctic Barents Sea, as potential discoveries could be developed in a short time, Averty said.

Averty said the planned 25 exploration wells in Norway were estimated to cost between $300 million and $400 million. Internationally, Equinor plans to drill around 10-13 exploration wells next year, including in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, offshore Canada, Angola, and Brazil, as well as in East Siberia, onshore Russia, a spokesperson for the company said.

Equinor plans to spend around $900 million on exploration globally this year, but it no longer provides a comparable guidance for 2022.
