据《石油世界期刊》8月9日墨西哥城报道，必和必拓(BHP Group)上周五表示，批准将其在墨西哥的Trion石油项目推进至设计和工程阶段，并将斥资5.44亿美元以开发墨西哥湾的Shenzi North石油项目。
必和必拓董事会批准了2.58亿美元的资本支出，将墨西哥Trion石油项目推进到前端工程设计（ FEED ）阶段。
这些研究的重点将是从2022年年中开始完成达成最终投资决定所需的工程、商业安排和执行计划。
必和必拓拥有AE-0092和AE-0093区块的60%的参与权益和运营权，这些区块包含位于墨西哥近海墨西哥湾深水区的Trion发现。
墨西哥PEMEX勘探与生产公司持有这些区块 40%的股权。
作为Shenzi North油田的运营商，持有该油田72%的股份的必和必拓表示，该项目将增加两口井和水下设备，以建立一个新的钻井平台，日产量最高可达3万桶油当量。
拥有Shenzi North 项目剩余部分的西班牙石油公司雷普索尔(Repsol SA )预计将在今年晚些时候做出最终投资决定。
必和必拓石油业务总裁杰拉尔丁·斯莱特里( Geraldine Slattery )在一份声明中表示，对于我们的业务来说，从相对低碳强度的资源中提供了具有吸引力回报的Shenzi North和Trion都是强劲的增长型资产。
该矿商表示，Shenzi North项目预计将于2024财年开始生产。

BHP moves to develop the Trion projects in the Gulf of Mexico
BHP Group (BHPB.L), (BHP.AX) said on Friday approved advancing its Trion oil project in Mexico into the design and engineering phase and would spend $544 million to develop its Shenzi North oil project in the Gulf of Mexico.
The BHP Board approved US$258 million in capital expenditure to move the Trion oil project in Mexico into the Front End Engineering Design (FEED) phase.
The focus of these studies will be on completion of the engineering, commercial arrangements and execution planning required to progress to a Final Investment Decision from mid-calendar year 2022.
BHP holds a 60 per cent participating interest in and operatorship of blocks AE-0092 and AE-0093 containing the Trion discovery located in the deep-water Gulf of Mexico offshore Mexico.
PEMEX Exploration & Production Mexico holds a 40 per cent interest in the blocks.
BHP, which is the operator of Shenzi North and holds a 72% stake in it, said the project will add two wells and underwater equipment to establish a new drill with the capacity to produce up to about 30,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.
Spanish oil company Repsol SA (REP.MC) , which owns the rest of the Shenzi North project, is expected to make a final investment decision (FID) later this year.
"Both Shenzi North and Trion are strong growth assets for our business, providing attractive returns from relatively low carbon intensity resources," Geraldine Slattery, BHP's president of petroleum operations, said in a statement.
Production from the Shenzi North project is expected to start in fiscal 2024, the miner said.
