据油价网6月23日消息称，挪威石油和能源部周三表示，挪威在北极边境地区颁发了四个新的勘探许可证，以支持其油气行业，并创造价值和就业机会。
作为第25轮许可证发放的一部分，挪威石油和能源部已经向7家公司提供了4个生产许可证的股份或经营权，其中一个在挪威海，三个在巴伦支海。所谓的编号许可轮通常包括挪威大陆架(NCS)的边界部分。
挪威石油部表示，这些地区将是最有可能拥有大型新发现油田的前沿地区。
挪威能源部长Tina Bru去年在部长提出扩大石油和天然气勘探区域时表示，挪威需要新的发现，以维持其最重要的行业之一及其供应链的就业，尤其是在过去几个月充满挑战之后。
在2020年11月宣布的第25轮许可中，公司可以申请9个不同地区的许可证，其中8个在巴伦支海，一个在挪威海。
该部今天表示，经过评估，挪威将股权和/或运营权授予壳牌、Equinor、日本出光石油公司、英力士勘探生产挪威公司、伦丁石油公司、OMV(挪威)等。
本月早些时候，挪威政府表示，它将赌注押在海上风能、氢气和电气化上，以实现其在巴黎协定下的承诺，但其石油和天然气部门将继续在长期创造就业、经济增长前景和国家价值方面发挥重要作用。
挪威是西欧最大的石油生产国，正准备迎接能源转型，但政府的白皮书“让能源投入工作”显示，它相信可以在其气候政策范围内开发石油资源以实现低排放生产。
Bru部长表示:“政府石油政策的主要目标是促进油气行业的长期盈利生产。”

Norway Expands Arctic Oil Exploration
Norway has awarded four new exploration licenses in frontier Arctic areas as it looks to support its oil and gas industry, as well as value and job creation, the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy said on Wednesday.
The ministry has offered seven companies stakes or operatorship in four production licenses, one in the Norwegian Sea and three in the Barents Sea, as part of its 25th licensing round. The so-called numbered licensing round typically includes frontier parts of the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS).
According to Norway’s oil ministry, it will be the frontier regions that are most likely to host large new discoveries.
Norway needs new discoveries to maintain employment in one of its most important industries and its supply chain, especially after the last few challenging months, Energy Minister Tina Bru said last year when the ministry proposed the expansion of areas for oil and gas exploration.
In the 25th licensing round, announced in November 2020, companies could apply for licenses in nine different areas—eight in the Barents Sea and one in the Norwegian Sea.
After evaluating the bids, Norway awarded stakes and/or operatorship to Shell, Equinor, Idemitsu Petroleum Norway, INEOS E&P Norway, Lundin, OMV (Norway), the ministry said today. Of the four licenses, Equinor will operate two, while it —majority held by Italy’s Eni—and INEOS will each operate one license.
Earlier this month, Norway’s government said that it is betting on offshore wind, hydrogen, and electrification to meet its commitment under the Paris Agreement, but its oil and gas sector will continue to play a major role in long-term job creation, economic growth prospects, and value for the country.
Norway, Western Europe’s largest oil producer, is preparing to face the energy transition, yet it believes that it can develop its petroleum resources to deliver low-emission production within its climate policy, the government’s White Paper ‘Putting Energy to Work’ showed.
“The main goal of the government’s petroleum policy - to facilitate profitable production in the oil and gas industry in a long term perspective - is firmly in place,” minister Bru said.
