據(jù)4月28日Rigzone報(bào)道，巴西國家石油、天然氣和生物燃料局(ANP)于4月27日發(fā)布了第817/2020號(hào)決議，該決議涉及油氣勘探和生產(chǎn)設(shè)施的退役、地區(qū)回歸ANP的程序以及資產(chǎn)的出售和購回。該機(jī)構(gòu)稱之為石油行業(yè)的一個(gè)里程碑，更新的程序?qū)樵谠搰_展新業(yè)務(wù)和增加投資提供機(jī)會(huì)。

單就退役而言，新標(biāo)準(zhǔn)預(yù)計(jì)在未來五年內(nèi)將帶來至少45億美元的投資。據(jù)該機(jī)構(gòu)表示，這些資金將用于承包清理和廢棄油井、移除設(shè)備和回收區(qū)域承包服務(wù)。

該決議可能適用于計(jì)劃在未來幾年退役的項(xiàng)目設(shè)施，由于當(dāng)前油氣產(chǎn)量下降，這些設(shè)施最終需要在今年年初就停用。根據(jù)該決議，包括正在流轉(zhuǎn)程序中的陸上油田——這些油田的退役計(jì)劃已經(jīng)獲批，在預(yù)定的生產(chǎn)結(jié)束日期前24個(gè)月就可以開始啟動(dòng)相關(guān)程序，這樣就可以在不中斷生產(chǎn)的情況下進(jìn)行運(yùn)營商的過渡。

ANP在一份聲明中表示，簡化油田從一家公司轉(zhuǎn)移到另一家公司的規(guī)則，延長了油田的使用壽命，擴(kuò)大了油田的采收率，創(chuàng)造了就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)，提升了收入。

該決議是ANP、Ibama和巴西海軍共同努力的結(jié)果，它們統(tǒng)一了各自的程序，使得各個(gè)公司不再需要向每個(gè)機(jī)構(gòu)提交不同的文件，而是提供一個(gè)單一的設(shè)施退役計(jì)劃即可。

Brazil Could See $4.5B in Decomm Investments

The Brazilian National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) released Resolution 817/2020 on April 27, which deals with decommissioning oil and gas exploration and production facilities, the procedure for returning areas to the ANP and the sale and reversal of assets. The agency called it a milestone for its oil industry, as the updated procedures will provide opportunities for new business and increased investments in the country.

On the decommissioning alone, the forecast is that the new standard will result in at least $4.5 billion in investments in the next five years. The funds will be invested in contracting services for clearing and abandoning wells, removing equipment and recovering areas, according to the agency.

The resolution may be applied to installations with decommissioning scheduled for the coming years and which, eventually, need to be deactivated early this year due to the production declines tied to the coronavirus pandemic.

Under the resolution the ANP may include onshore fields that are in the process of being returned that have approved decommissioning plans, starting 24 months before the scheduled date for the end of production, so that there is a transition of operators without production interruption.

Simplifying the rules for transferring fields from one company to another extends fields' useful life and expands their recovery factor, generating jobs, income and increased royalties, the ANP said in a statement.

The resolution is the result of a joint effort between the ANP, Ibama and the Brazilian Navy, which unified their procedures; instead of delivering different documents to each agency, companies will now deliver a single facilities decommissioning plan.
