中國(guó)石化新聞網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)路透社5月9日布宜諾斯艾利斯報(bào)道,在公布了超過預(yù)期的一季度業(yè)績(jī)一天以后,阿根廷國(guó)家控制的能源公司YPF 9日在布宜諾斯艾利斯表示,該公司預(yù)計(jì)今年的石油和天然氣產(chǎn)量分別增加5%和18%。
在2012年被國(guó)有化的YPF表示,導(dǎo)致今年產(chǎn)量增加的主要原因是收購(gòu)資產(chǎn)以及其巨大的巴塔哥尼亞頁巖油氣地層Vaca Muerta或Dead Cow的新的非常規(guī)油氣產(chǎn)量。YPF是Vaca Muerta的主要作業(yè)者。
YPF首席財(cái)務(wù)官Daniel Gonzalez說,他預(yù)計(jì)今年Vaca Muerta的頁巖產(chǎn)量有顯著增長(zhǎng)。
YPF 8日曾說,其一季度的油氣日產(chǎn)量增加了10.7%,達(dá)到了52.97萬桶油當(dāng)量。
美國(guó)能源部日前的一份報(bào)告顯示,阿根廷頁巖中蘊(yùn)藏的天然氣儲(chǔ)量超過了整個(gè)歐洲,774萬億立方英尺的頁巖氣儲(chǔ)量可以改變西半球能源供應(yīng)的前景。阿根廷擁有的頁巖氣儲(chǔ)量?jī)H次于中國(guó)和美國(guó)。

Argentina's YPF Sees 2014 Jump In Oil And Gas Output
BUENOS AIRES, May 9 (Reuters) - Argentina's state-controlled energy company YPF said on Friday it sees crude oil production increasing by 5 percent this year and natural gas output rising 18 percent, a day after reporting stronger-than-expected first-quarter results.
YPF, which was nationalized in 2012, said increased production this year was due to acquisitions and new unconventional production at its vast Patagonian shale oil and gas formation Vaca Muerta, or Dead Cow.
YPF Chief Financial Officer Daniel Gonzalez said he had "significant growth expectations for shale production". YPF is the main operator at Vaca Muerta.
YPF said on Thursday production of hydrocarbons rose 10.7 percent in the first quarter to 529,700 barrels of oil equivalent per day.
A U.S. Department of Energy report has shown that Argentina has more natural gas trapped in shale rock than all of Europe, a 774-trillion-cubic-feet bounty that could transform the outlook for Western Hemisphere supply. The country's shale gas reserves trail only China and the United States.
