Equinor啟動Eirin氣田項目，提升歐洲天然氣供應

-- 挪威國家石油公司 (Equinor，股票代號：EQNR) 週二發布聲明稱，該公司已將艾琳 (Eirin) 氣田投入生產，釋放了約 2,760 萬桶油當量可採資源，主要為天然氣，以支持歐洲的天然氣供應。 Equinor 表示，該公司正透過位於北海的吉娜·克羅格 (Gina Krog) 和斯萊普納 A (Sleipner A) 平台出口艾琳氣田的天然氣，從而增強挪威對歐洲的天然氣輸送。 Equinor 指出，從計畫啟動到投產，該公司僅花了大約三年時間就開發完成了這個海底氣田。該公司表示，艾琳氣田於 1978 年被發現，但由於經濟效益不佳而擱置了該項目。 2023 年，隨著俄羅斯入侵烏克蘭後挪威天然氣需求的成長，該公司重新評估了該氣田。 Equinor 為開發該氣田投資了約 45 億挪威克朗（約 4.865 億美元），將海底設施與吉娜·克羅格平台連接，並透過斯萊普納樞紐出口天然氣。該計畫將把吉娜·克羅格平台的營運壽命從2029年延長至2036年，從而支持持續生產並保住相關就業機會。 Equinor於2023年完成了吉娜·克羅格平台的電氣化改造，使Eirin工程得以實現低排放，其碳排放強度約為每桶油當量3公斤二氧化碳。 Equinor高級副總裁琳達·卡達·霍蘭德表示：“在當前充滿挑戰的時期，雙方看到了為歐洲能源安全做出貢獻的機會。我們制定了一項雄心勃勃的計劃，旨在實現快速、經濟高效且安全的開發。” 霍蘭德補充說：“Eirin項目將使吉娜·克羅格平台的生產壽命延長七年，該項目將為歐洲輸送天然氣，同時支持與該資產相關的價值創造和就業崗位。”

Market Chatter: Japan Advances Energy Loan Talks With South Africa, Promotes Ammonia Co-Firing

Japan is accelerating talks on a yen-denominated energy loan for South Africa while promoting ammonia co-firing technology, Bloomberg said Tuesday, citing Japanese diplomatic officials.Japan will use the proposed loan to support South Africa's energy transition, though it did not disclose the amount, the report said, citing officials.Japan's initiative adds to about $10 billion in climate financing already pledged to South Africa by European countries under an existing energy transition agreement.Germany and Japan are expanding efforts to position their companies in South Africa, targeting opportunities in a market with strong solar and significant green hydrogen production potential.Leaders first discussed the loan during a meeting between President Cyril Ramaphosa and former Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba in Yokohama in August, the report added.Japan is promoting ammonia co-firing, which replaces part of coal use at power plants with ammonia to reduce emissions while maintaining existing infrastructure.South Africa can produce green hydrogen using its solar and wind resources, then convert it into ammonia for easier storage and transport, supporting cleaner energy pathways.However, critics say ammonia co-firing could extend the life of coal plants, as South Africa still generates about three-quarters of its electricity from coal, the report noted.has reached out to South Africa's Department of Electricity and Energy for any comments.(Market Chatter news is derived from conversations with market professionals globally.
