中国海洋石油集团有限公司在渤海发现了一个估计原油和天然气储量超过1亿吨油当量的油田。该油田是过去三年来发现的第三个亿吨级油田。

Another oilfield in Bohai Sea

1 The China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) announced that it had discovered a field in the Bohai Sea with estimated crude oil and natural gas reserves exceeding 100 million tonnes of oil equivalent.

2 The oil field, Bozhong 26?6, 170 kilometers off Tianjin Municipality at an average depth of 22.1 meters, is the third discovery of an oilfield with over 100 million tons in the past three years.

3 The find further enhances Chinas offshore oil and gas reserve base and is of great importance for safeguarding Chinas energy security. Test drilling could produce 270 tons of crude and 0.32 million cubic meters of gas per day, demonstrating the oil fields potential.

4 The oilfield is estimated at 130 million tons of oil equivalent. It could produce 20 million tons of crude, enough to power 10,000 cars to run for 30 years. A total of 9 billion cubic meters of natural gas will be extracted (提取) during the process, enough to power up Tianjin, with its permanent population of nearly 14 million, for 15 years.

5 It has added oil and gas proven reserves totaling 1 billion tons in the last five years, providing a solid material guarantee for its Bohai Oilfield to churn out 40 million tons of crude per year. Bohai Oilfield is Chinas largest oil producing base. Experts said offshore oil has increasingly become a source of growth in Chinas energy reserves. In January, the company said it aims to produce 6.5 to 6.6 million barrels of oil equivalent for 2023.

6 Bozhong 26?6 is the third oilfield discovery with 100 million tons of reserves in the Bohai Sea after Kenli 6?1 and Kenli 10?2. CNOOCs discovery came at a time when the International Energy Agency (IEA) is predicting an increase in gas demand from China.

7 According to IEA Gas Market Report for the first quarter of 2023, Chinas gas consumption is projected to see a rebound (反弹) of nearly 7 percent in 2023. The report further noted that the uncertainty range for Chinas liquefied natural gas (LNG) (中国液化天然气) demand is 40 billion cubic meters.
