据世界石油网站2月18日报道 Crescent Point能源公司同意以约9亿加元（7.07亿美元）的价格收购荷兰皇家壳牌公司在加拿大西部的页岩业务，这是加拿大油气行业整合的最新实例。
总部位于卡尔加里的Crescent Point能源公司将以5.5亿美元现金和5000万股Crescent Point 普通股收购壳牌的Kaybob Duvernay资产。该公司在一份公告中称，预计到第二季度，这些资产将日产约3.5万桶油当量，其中包括一些即将投产的已钻井和未完工油井。
此次收购是加拿大西部能源生产商参与的一系列交易中的最新一笔。上周，Seven Generations能源有限公司和ARC资源有限公司同意合并。此前，Tourmaline石油公司去年秋天收购了竞争对手Jupiter Resources Ltd.和Modern Resources Inc.，油砂生产商塞诺佛斯能源公司收购了赫斯基能源公司。
壳牌公司的交易为Crescent Point 提供了新的富含凝析油的天然气生产，该地区位于阿尔伯塔省，页岩气产量不断增长。Crescent Point将2021年过剩现金流的指导值修改为3.75-6亿加元，基于每桶50-60美元的WTI价格。
壳牌在2017年出售了大部分油砂业务。该公司周三表示，通过出售油砂业务，可以专注于二叠纪盆地等“核心”上游位置。
壳牌上游董事Wael Sawan在一份声明中表示：“剥离这些资产是壳牌努力将上游投资组合集中在交付现金上的基础。虽然我们相信这些资产有价值，但撤资使我们能够专注于我们的核心上游位置，如二叠纪盆地，其具有完整的价值链，从而建立一个弹性强、风险较低、不太复杂的投资组合。”

Shell sells its Alberta shale assets to Calgary-based Crescent Point
Crescent Point Energy Corp. agreed to buy some of Royal Dutch Shell Plc’s Western Canadian shale operations for about C$900 million ($707 million) in the latest example of consolidation in the Canadian oil and gas sector.
Calgary-based Crescent Point, an oil driller with a focus on Saskatchewan, will acquire Shell’s Kaybob Duvernay assets for $550 million in cash and 50 million Crescent Point common shares. The assets are expected to produce about 35,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day by the second quarter, including a number of drilled and uncompleted wells that are about to come on stream, the company said in a release.
The acquisition marks the latest in a string of deals involving Western Canada energy producers. Last week, Seven Generations Energy Ltd. and ARC Resources Ltd. agreed to merge. That deal followed Tourmaline Oil Corp.’s purchase of rivals Jupiter Resources Ltd. and Modern Resources Inc. last fall, and a much larger deal in which oil sands producer Cenovus Energy Inc. took over Husky Energy Inc.
The Shell deal provides Crescent Point with new condensate-rich gas production in a growing shale play located in Alberta. Crescent Point revised its guidance for excess cash flow in 2021 to between C$375 and C$600 million, assuming WTI prices of $50 to $60 a barrel.
Shell, which sold most of its oil sands operations in 2017, said Wednesday’s sale allows the company to focus on “core” upstream positions such as the Permian Basin.
“Divesting these assets underpins Shell’s effort to focus the Upstream portfolio to deliver cash,” Wael Sawan, upstream director at Shell, said in a statement. “While we believe these assets hold value, the divestment allows us to focus on our core Upstream positions like the Permian Basin, with integrated value chains, thereby building a resilient, lower-risk and less complex portfolio.”
