據(jù)今日石油網(wǎng)2022年4月27日報道，美國油氣生產(chǎn)商赫斯公司4月27日在今年第一季度收益電話會議召開之前透露，圭亞那第4個石油開發(fā)項目Yellowtail項目預(yù)計將開發(fā)大約9.25億桶石油的總資源量。

按照布倫特原油目前的市場價格每桶100美元至102.5美元計算，Yellowtail項目總資源量將價值925億美元，即19.3萬億圭亞那元。  

赫斯公司回憶說，在開發(fā)計劃獲得圭亞那政府的批準以后，赫斯公司及其合作伙伴今年4月做出了最終投資決定，繼續(xù)在斯塔布魯克區(qū)塊實施投資100億美元的Yellowtail開發(fā)項目。

作為圭亞那區(qū)塊迄今為止最大的開發(fā)項目，Yellowtail項目將使用“ONE GUYANA 號”浮式產(chǎn)油、儲油和卸油（FPSO）船，其石油日產(chǎn)能預(yù)計高達25萬桶。預(yù)計將在2025年投產(chǎn)的Yellowtail項目計劃建設(shè)6個鉆井中心，共26口生產(chǎn)井和25口注水井。

扣除批準前成本和FPSO船采購成本，赫斯公司在這個項目中的開發(fā)成本凈份額預(yù)計約為23億美元，其中今年約為2.1億美元，2023年為4.3億美元，2024年為5.85億美元，2025年為3.9億美元，2026年為2.95億美元。

At current oil price, Yellowtail Project holds GY$19.3 trillion worth of oil

Ahead of its 2022 first quarter earnings call this morning, Hess Corporation disclosed that the Yellowtail Project is expected to develop a gross resource base of approximately 925 million barrels of oil.

At current market price for Brent crude, (US$100 to US$102.5 a barrel), the resource base is worth US$92.5B or GY$19.3 trillion.

Hess recalled that it was in April 2022, that a final investment decision was made to proceed with the US$10B Yellowtail development on the Stabroek Block after the development plan received approval from Guyana.

Yellowtail, the largest development thus far on the Block, will utilise the ONE GUYANA FPSO, which is expected to have a capacity of up to 250,000 gross bopd, with first production expected in 2025. Six drill centers are planned with up to 26 production wells and 25 injection wells.

Excluding pre-sanction costs and FPSO purchase cost, the Corporation’s net share of development costs is forecast to be approximately US$2.3 billion, of which approximately US$210 million is expected in 2022, US$430 million in 2023, US$585 million in 2024, US$390 million in 2025 and US$295 million in 2026.
