据油气新闻5月16日消息称，根据一项新的上游石油法案，南非希望获得石油和天然气勘探和生产企业20%的自由股份，该法案允许部长为黑人投资者保留石油区块。
本周早些时候，内阁批准了《上游石油资源开发法案》，旨在帮助监管南非的一个新兴行业。此前，法国道达尔在南非海岸发现了新的海上天然气，帮助开辟了一个新的石油前沿。
如果该法案以目前的形式获得通过，将意味着大量资金流入国库。
但由于气候变化，COVID-19影响石油巨头的投资决策，在全球逐渐远离化石燃料之际，这也可能让投资者望而却步。
路透社看到该法案说：“国家有权拥有石油权益20%的附带权益，包括勘探和生产阶段。”
该法案将“附带权益”定义为国家通过对石油权的利益参与，“这种利益完全是为了国家的利益，其成本由石油权持有人承担”。

S.Africa wants 20% free stake in new oil and gas ventures, draft bill shows
South Africa wants a free 20% stake in oil and gas exploration and production ventures under a new upstream petroleum bill, which allows the minister to reserve petroleum blocks for Black investors.
The Upstream Petroleum Resources Development Bill, approved by cabinet earlier this week, is meant to help regulate a nascent industry in the country following new offshore gas finds by France’s Total TOTF.PA that helped unlock a new petroleum frontier off South Africa’s coast.
If the legislation is passed in its current form it could mean vast sums flow into state coffers.
But it could also put off investors at a time when the world is turning away from fossil fuels due to climate change, and the impact of COVID-19 weighs on investment decisions by oil majors.
“The state has a right to a 20% carried interest in petroleum rights, including in both the exploration and productions phase,” said the bill seen by Reuters.
The bill defines “carried interest” as state participation through an interest in a petroleum right, “which interest vests exclusively for the benefit of the State and the costs of which are borne by the carrying holder of a petroleum right”.
