中國石化新聞網訊 據Barents Observer網站8月11日莫斯科報道，在埃克森美孚公司和挪威北大西洋鑽井公司領導人的麵前，俄羅斯國有石油巨頭俄羅斯石油公司（俄油）總裁伊戈爾?謝欽在電視電話會議上向俄羅斯總統普京彙報了喀拉海University-1井鑽井作業的啟動情況。University-1井是俄油在喀拉海的一口具有曆史意義的勘探井。

 

 

　　根據謝欽所說
，喀拉海的石油資源超過了墨西哥灣、巴西大陸架、阿拉斯加和加拿大北部擁有的石油資源總量並能與沙特阿拉伯擁有的石油資源量比肩。

 

 

　　謝欽對普京總統說：“我們準備探究西西伯利亞石油資源的海上延伸部分
，我們打算在喀拉海開辟一個新的石油生產區。”

 

 

　　謝欽強調說：“University-1井位於74度以北

，距離俄羅斯大陸大約250公裏。迄今沒有其他人在這個高緯度上進行油氣作業。一年前
，沒有人認為這個鑽井作業是可行的。但是，今天我們開始在那裏鑽井。”

 

 

　　據此前報道，鑽井作業的鑽機由挪威Seadrill公司控製的在挪威上市的北大西洋鑽井公司提供。這部此前從未在北極海域作業過的West Alpha號鑽機由俄油租借兩年。

 

 

　　Nuiversity-1井鑽井作業是俄油和埃克森美孚公司之間全麵北極合作的一部分。

　　In the presence of leaders of ExxonMobil and the Norwegian North-Atlantic Drilling, Sechin reported to the president about the launch of the drilling operation at the University-1, the company’s historical well in the Kara Sea.

 

 

　　According to Sechin, the oil resources of the Kara Sea exceed the ones of the Bay of Mexico, Brasilian shelf,Alaska and northern Canada and can be compared with the resources of Saudi Arabia.

 

 

　　We are ready to explore the offshore extension of the western Siberian oil resources and intend to open a new Kara oil province, Sechin told the president in a televised call.

 

 

　　The University-1 well is located 74 degrees north, about 250 km north of the Russian mainland. ”Nobody else are working at these altitudes”, Sechin said. ”One year ago, nobody though this operation would be possible. But today we are starting drilling”, he underlined.

 

 

　　As previously reported, the operation is conducted with the West Alpha, a rig owned by North-Atlantic Drilling, the Norway-listed company controlled by Seadrill. The rig, which never before has operated in Arctic waters, has been hired by Rosneft for a two-year period.

 

 

　　The University-1 operation is part of the comprehensive Arctic cooperation between Rosneft and ExxonMobil.
