据美国钻井网站2022年3月18日报道,中欧地区最大的油气公司奥地利油气集团(OMV)宣布,OMV在2030年前将减少20%的石油和天然气产量,到2050年前完全停止作为能源使用的石油和天然气生产。
OMV日前发布了其2030年新战略,这个新战略强调,OMV的目标是成为一家领先的、综合的可持续燃料、化学品和材料公司,重点关注循环经济解决方案。
OMV的新战略预计,到2030年前后,其原油产量将减少30%左右,天然气产量将减少15%左右。 OMV指出,石油和天然气生产的投资将持续到2026年,重点是开发天然气项目,之后将大幅减少。 OMV表示,从2022年4月1日起,其天然气销售和物流业务(不包括OMV 石油公司)将被合并到勘探与生产(E&P)业务,以发挥协同效应。
OMV强调该公司将投资55亿美元开发低碳业务来减少温室气体排放,诸如地热能、碳捕获和储存项目。OMV指出,在地热能领域,其优势在于其广泛的地下和地表专业知识和经验,现有的油藏和基础设施,以及在欧洲强劲的市场增长。 OMV表示,它还将扩大其太阳能和风能发电的专属用途,并探索天然气和氢气存储解决方案的机会。
OMV副首席执行官兼负责勘探与生产业务的执行董事会成员Johann Pleininger在一份公司声明中表示:“利用我们的勘探与生产资产、产能和专业知识,我们将建立和扩大低碳业务。”
Pleininger在声明中补充说:“我们的首要目标是提供现金和可持续能源解决方案,以支持能源转型。”
美国钻井网站已通过电子邮件询问OMV减少并最终停止油气生产的计划是否会影响其全体员工,但截至发稿时尚未收到OMV的回复。 根据最新的集团报告,OMV在2021年雇佣了22434人,比该公司在2020年雇佣的25291人减少了11%。

OMV to Cease Oil and Gas Production
OMV has announced that it will reduce its oil and gas production by around 20 percent by 2030 and completely cease oil and gas production for energy use by 2050.
The announcement was made as the international, integrated oil, gas and chemicals company presented its new Strategy 2030 this week, which highlighted that OMV aims to become a leading, integrated sustainable fuels, chemicals and materials company with a strong focus on circular economy solutions.
OMV’s new strategy foresees a decrease in crude oil production by around 30 percent and natural gas production by around 15 percent by 2030. Investment in oil and gas production will be continued until 2026, with a focus on developing gas projects, after which it will decrease significantly, OMV noted. As of April 1, 2022, the company said its gas sales and logistics business, excluding OMV Petrom, will be consolidated in E&P to leverage synergies.
OMV highlighted that it will invest around $5.5. billion (EUR 5 billion) in the development of low-carbon businesses such as geothermal energy and carbon capture and storage to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. The company noted that, in geothermal energy, it sees its advantage in its extensive subsurface and surface expertise and experience, existing reservoirs and infrastructure, and strong market growth in Europe. OMV said it will also expand its solar and wind power generation for captive use and explore opportunities in gas and hydrogen storage solutions.
“Leveraging our E&P assets, capacity, and know-how, we will build and expand the Low Carbon Business,” Johann Pleininger, OMV’s deputy CEO and member of the executive board responsible for Exploration & Production, said in a company statement.
“Our overarching goal is to provide cash and sustainable energy solutions to support the transformation,” Pleininger added in the statement.
Rigzone has asked OMV via email if the company’s plans to reduce and eventually cease oil and gas production will impact its workforce but is yet to receive a reply at the time of writing. According to its latest group report, OMV employed 22,434 people in 2021, which marked an 11 percent decrease from the company’s 2020 workforce figure of 25,291.
