据离岸工程1月28日报道称,欧洲独立石油和天然气勘探和生产公司伦丁石油已经增持了其在挪威北海的Rolvsnes大型油田的股份,这标志着该公司最终会收回其运营的Edvard Grieg油田。伦丁石油的业务主要集中在挪威。
瑞典石油天然气公司在一份新闻声明中称:“伦丁已与雷克斯国际控股有限公司的子公司Lime石油达成协议,将收购其位于Rolvsnes和Goddo基底区的整个Utsira High区域。”
此次收购将使伦丁挪威在PL338C的Rolvsnes石油发现和最近获得的相邻许可区域PL338E1中的工作权益提高50%到80%,并将PL815中Goddo勘探区域的权益提高40%至60%。这将巩固该公司在靠近Edvard Grieg工厂的Utsira High已被证实的风化和裂缝基底区的地位。
该交易自2019年1月起生效,涉及Lime石油公司4300万美元的现金对价和额外200万美元的或有款项,交易完成后须经过政府的批准。
伦丁石油公司首席执行官兼总裁Alex Schneiter表示:“我很高兴宣布收购Lime 石油公司在Rolvsnes和Goddo的工作权益,这不仅进一步巩固了我们在我们核心领域的地位,而且还提供了机会进一步受益于这个成功测试的基底区的巨大潜力,这在挪威大陆架上是独一无二的。”

Lundin Petroleum Buys Stakes in Norwegian Rolvsnes, Goddo Assets
Lundin Petroleum, Europe's independent oil and gas exploration and production company with operations focused on Norway, has increased its stake in the major Rolvsnes oil discovery in the Norwegian North Sea, flagging a potential tieback eventually to its operated Edvard Grieg oil field.
A press statement from the Swedish oil and gas company said: "Lundin has entered into an agreement with Lime Petroleum, a subsidiary of Rex International Holding Limited, to acquire its entire Utsira High acreage position covering the Rolvsnes and Goddo basement area."
The acquisition takes Lundin Norway’s working interest in the Rolvsnes oil discovery in PL338C and in the recently awarded, adjacent licence PL338E1 from 50 to 80 percent and the Goddo prospect in PL815 from 40 to 60 percent. This will consolidate the Company’s position in the proven weathered and fractured basement play on the Utsira High, close to the Edvard Grieg facilities.
The transaction, which is effective from January 2019, involves a cash consideration to Lime Petroleum of USD 43 million and a contingent payment of a further USD 2 million, with completion subject to customary government approvals.
Alex Schneiter, CEO and President of Lundin Petroleum commented: “I am very pleased to announce the acquisition of Lime Petroleum’s working interests in Rolvsnes and Goddo, which not only further consolidates our position in one of our core areas, but also offers the opportunity to further benefit from the significant potential in this successfully tested basement play, which is unique on the Norwegian Continental shelf.
