据油价网2023年7月26日报道,法国能源巨头道达尔能源公司日前开始在位于乌干达阿尔伯特湖附近的蒂伦加油田钻第一口探井。法新社援引道达尔能源公司的话报道说,蒂伦加油田将在2025年投产。
蒂伦加项目是道达尔能源和亚洲大型海上开发巨头和乌干达政府为开发位于阿尔伯特湖地区的两个油田而达成的100亿美元协议的一部分。
东非原油管道(EACOP)将具有日输送21.6万桶原油的能力,全长1400多公里。这将是世界上最长的加热原油管道。
EACOP以后阶段的原油日输油能力可能会增加到24.6万桶。当道达尔能源和亚洲大型海上开发巨头和乌干达达成建设协议时,这个项目的成本估计为35亿美元。
对于内陆国家乌干达来说,如果要将其原油运往国际市场,EACOP是至关重要的。这个项目对邻国坦桑尼亚来说也是一个有利可图的机会。
然而,对于该地区的政府来说,开发他们的自然资源确实是一个好主意。由于石油收入,当地居民的生活水平有望提高,而且有机会像西方国家那样依靠石油和天然气致富。

Total Starts Drilling In Ugandan Oil Field
France’s TotalEnergies has started drilling its first well in the Tilenga field, near Lake Albert, in Uganda. Production is set to start in 2025, the company said, as quoted by the AFP.
The Tilenga project is part of a $10-billion deal between TotalEnergies and the Ugandan government for the development of two fields in the Lake Albert area.
The East African Crude Oil Pipeline, or EACOP, will have a capacity of 216,000 barrels of crude daily and will span across more than 1,400 km. It will be the world’s longest heated oil pipeline.
The capacity could be ramped up to 246,000 barrels at a later stage. The cost of the project was estimated at $3.5 billion when Total and Uganda sealed the deal for its construction.
For landlocked Uganda, EACOP is a vital necessity if it is to get its crude oil to international markets. The project is a lucrative opportunity for neighboring Tanzania, too.
For governments in the region, however, exploiting their natural resources is, indeed, a good idea. It was cited the prospects of improving the living standards of local populations thanks to oil revenues and the chance to do exactly what the West did thanks to oil and gas: wealthy.
