據離岸工程6月2日報道，總部位于英國的獨立油氣開發公司(IOG)已將第一階段井管理合同授予Petrofac公司，用于其北海天然氣開發的核心項目。

該決議是在上月，IOG的一項涵蓋其核心天然氣項目第一階段的油田開發計劃(FDP)獲得了英國石油天然氣管理局(Oil & Gas Authority)的批準后做出的。

根據合同，Petrofac將管理Blythe、Elgood和Southwark油田的5口井計劃，這是第一階段鉆井計劃的一部分，工作范圍包括計劃、實施和關閉階段。

Petrofac將代表IOG擔任油井運營商，該公司已在英國北海的其他9家石油公司中擔任過該職務。

IOG首席執行官安德魯?霍基（ Andrew Hockey）表示，Petrofac公司已經證明，他們擁有足夠的資質和專業知識，能夠在幫助IOG公司在明年上半年開展安全、高產、低成本的五口井一期鉆井作業方面發揮關鍵作用。近幾個月來，IOG鉆井和地下團隊已經與Petrofac團隊建立了牢固的工作關系，隨著第一階段鉆井準備工作的逐步展開，這種關系將進一步深化。

計劃包括詳細的井設計，風險評估以及與井相關的法規要求的管理。

IOG指出，Petrofac將管理油井工程、采購和后勤，確保油井建設和完整性，并在施工階段提供海上和陸上人事以支持鉆井。

Petrofac西部工程&生產服務部董事總經理Nick Shorten表示，通過部署我們廣泛的資產和油井管理專業知識，我們將與IOG緊密合作，以確保油井的完整性并提供安全且經濟高效的鉆探計劃以來支持促進他們的發展。

IOG selects Petrofac as operator for Core gas project in North Sea

UK-based development and production firm Independent Oil & Gas (IOG) has awarded the Phase 1 well management contract to Petrofac for its Core Project gas development in the North Sea.

The latest move comes after IOG secured approval from the UK Oil & Gas Authority last month for a field development plan (FDP) encompassing the first phase of its core gas project.

Under the contract, Petrofac will manage the five-well programme on the Blythe, Elgood and Southwark fields as part of a Phase 1 drilling programme, with the work scope covering planning, execution, and the close-out phases.

Petrofac will serve as the well operator on behalf of IOG, a role which the company has performed for nine other oil companies in the UK North Sea.

IOG CEO Andrew Hockey said: “Petrofac have demonstrated that they have the right credentials and expertise to execute what will be a critical role in helping IOG to deliver a safe, productive and cost-effective five-well Phase 1 drilling campaign kicking off in the first half of next year.

“The IOG drilling and subsurface teams have already established a strong working relationship with the Petrofac team in recent months and this will deepen further as Phase 1 drilling preparations ramp up.”

Planning includes detailed well design, risk assessment, as well as the management of well-related regulatory requirements.

IOG noted that Petrofac will manage well engineering, procurement and logistics, ensure well construction and integrity, as well as provide offshore and onshore personnel to support drilling during the execution phase.

Petrofac Engineering and Production Services West managing director Nick Shorten said: “Through the deployment of our extensive asset and well management expertise, we will work closely with IOG to assure the integrity of the wells and deliver a safe and cost-efficient drilling programme to support the advancement of their development.”
