據石油新聞2021年6月14日莫斯科報道,俄羅斯最大的原油生產商俄羅斯石油公司(俄油/Rosneft)日前表示,俄油已同意將其大型項目沃斯托克石油項目的5%股份出售給一個包括維多公司和Mercantile & Maritime能源公司在內的財團。
根據俄油的一份聲明,俄油首席執行官伊戈爾?謝琴說,“沃斯托克石油項目的資源潛力,石油的高質量和其經濟模式使這個項目成為全球能源行業中最具吸引力的投資目標,世界大公司對這個項目的高度興趣和領先投資銀行的評估證實了這一點。
沃斯托克石油項目的資產包括沃斯托克和帕亞哈油田群,估計總資源量超過60億噸或大約440億桶的優質原油。這個項目原油含硫量較低,為0.01% ~ 0.04%。
上述公司預計將在獲得必要的監管和公司批準后完成交易。
謝欽說:“石油行業缺乏投資,以及世界人口的增長和世界經濟的繁榮,導致對能源的需求增加,從而增加了對新的石油項目的需求。“
他補充說,俄油計劃進一步加強與這兩家公司的合作,包括在沃斯托克石油項目上的合作。
去年,托克公司同意持有這個項目10%的股份,這也反映了西方公司對俄羅斯上游項目的興趣,盡管氣候問題日益令人擔憂。
俄油表示,沃斯托克石油項目的生產成本較低,其碳足跡比全球其他主要新石油項目低75%。
俄油計劃通過北海航線運輸產自這個項目的原油。全球變暖促進了這條航線的發展,這條航線通過北極水域通往歐洲和亞洲市場。俄油此前曾表示,2024年該個項目可能向全球市場供應2500萬噸或約50萬桶/天的原油。

Rosneft agrees to sell 5% in Vostok Oil to Vitol and Mercantile & Maritime Energy
Russia's largest crude producer Rosneft said June 10 that it has agreed on terms for sale of a 5% stake in its Vostok Oil megaproject to a consortium including Vitol and Mercantile & Maritime.
"The resource potential of the Vostok Oil project, the high quality of oil and its economic model make the project one of the most attractive investment targets in the global energy industry, which is confirmed by the high interest of large world companies in it and the assessments of leading investment banks," Rosneft CEO Igor Sechin said, according to a company statement.
Vostok Oil's assets include the Vankor and Payakha clusters and contain combined estimated resources of over 6 billion mt, or around 44 billion barrels of premium crude. Crude at the project has a low sulfur content ranging from 0.01%-0.04%.
The companies expect to close the deal after receiving necessary regulatory and corporate approvals.
"Lack of investment in the oil industry, as well as the growth of the world population and its prosperity, is leading to an increase in demand for energy, which increases the need for new types of projects," Sechin said.
He added that Rosneft plans to further increase cooperation with the two companies including within the Vostok Oil project.
The deal follows Trafigura's agreement to take a 10% stake in the project last year, and reflects ongoing interest in Russian upstream among Western companies, despite growing climate concerns.
Rosneft said that the project has low production costs and its carbon footprint is 75% lower than other major new global oil projects.
Rosneft plans to ship crude from the project via the Northern Sea Route. Warming temperatures are facilitating the development of the route, which ships to both European and Asian markets through Arctic waters. Rosneft said previously the project may supply 25 million mt, or around 500,000 b/d of oil to global markets in 2024.
