據7月30日NS Energy報道，美國油氣勘探公司阿帕奇及其合作伙伴道達爾在蘇里南近海獲得了重大石油發現。

這些石油是由58號區塊Noble Sam Croft鉆探的Kwaskwasi-1井發現的，阿帕奇公司持有50%的股份，道達爾公司作為合作伙伴持有剩余股份。

這口井的鉆探深度約為6645米，測試了上白堊統Campanian和Santonian層段中是否存在油氣。

這是蘇里南海域繼1月份和4月份發現油氣資源后，連續第三次發現油氣資源。

阿帕奇公司表示，第一批流體樣本和測試結果表明，在兩個層段內，凈油和揮發性油氣凝析油的產量層約為278米。

據該公司介紹，較淺的Campanian油層包含約63米的凈油層和86米的凈揮發性油氣凝析油層。

阿帕奇將在58號區塊開采第四個遠景區Keskesi，該公司首席執行官兼總裁John J. Christmann表示:“這是迄今為止我們在該盆地所鉆的最優質的一口井，在質量最好的儲層中，凈產量最高。盡管我們還有很多工作要做，但對這種質量和規模的發現值得我們加快評估步伐，從而可以選擇加速首次生產。”

該公司表示，58號區塊占地140萬英畝，除了Kwaskwasi、Sapakara West和Maka Central的發現外，該區塊還有巨大的潛力。

Apache and Total make major oil discovery offshore Suriname

US-based hydrocarbon exploration company Apache and its partner Total have made a major oil discovery offshore Suriname.

The oil was discovered at the Kwaskwasi-1 well drilled by the Noble Sam Croft in Block 58, where Apache is the operator with a 50% stake and Total as its partner holding the remaining stake.

The well, which was drilled to a depth of about 6,645 meters, was tested for the presence of hydrocarbons in multiple stacked targets in the upper Cretaceous-aged Campanian and Santonian intervals.

The discovery of hydrocarbon resource is marked as the third consecutive discovery offshore Suriname, following discoveries in April and January.

Apache said that the first fluid samples and test results have indicated approximately 278 meters of net oil and volatile oil / gas condensate pay in two intervals.

According to the company, the shallower Campanian interval contains around 63 meters of net oil pay and 86 meters of net volatile oil / gas condensate pay.

Apache to drill Keskesi, the fourth prospect in Block 58

Apache CEO and president John J. Christmann said: “This is the best well we’ve drilled in the basin to date, with the highest net pay in the best quality reservoirs.

“While we have a lot more work to do, a discovery of this quality and magnitude merits a pace of evaluation that enables the option of accelerated first production.”

The company said that the Block 58, which consists of 1.4 million acres, provides significant potential beyond the discoveries at Kwaskwasi, Sapakara West and Maka Central.
