???? 據(jù)天然氣新聞2021年2月24日波哥大報(bào)道，哥倫比亞國(guó)家石油公司（哥國(guó)油/Ecopetrol）計(jì)劃今年把其在美國(guó)二疊紀(jì)盆地的投資增加兩倍，達(dá)到6億美元，這一跡象表明，在國(guó)內(nèi)油氣產(chǎn)量增長(zhǎng)停滯的情況下，哥國(guó)油越來(lái)越關(guān)注國(guó)外油氣項(xiàng)目。

????哥國(guó)油首席執(zhí)行官Felipe Bayon 2月24日表示，哥國(guó)油與美國(guó)西方石油公司（Oxy）在德克薩斯州的合資企業(yè)將把石油日產(chǎn)量從去年的4500桶增加到今年年底前的14000桶。

????Bayon在與分析師的電話會(huì)議上表示，到2023年前，哥國(guó)油在美國(guó)二疊紀(jì)盆地的石油日產(chǎn)量份額可能達(dá)到2萬(wàn)桶。

????自2019年簽訂獲得49%股份的合作協(xié)議以來(lái)，哥國(guó)油已經(jīng)登記了1.6億桶額外探明儲(chǔ)量。

????哥國(guó)油和Oxy計(jì)劃今年在二疊紀(jì)盆地共鉆90口井，鉆井所需部分資金來(lái)自哥國(guó)油的6億美元投資，高于去年的1.93億美元。當(dāng)布倫特原油價(jià)格在45美元/桶時(shí)，哥國(guó)油今年的資本支出預(yù)算將達(dá)到35億至40億美元，但如果原油價(jià)格繼續(xù)上漲，今年的資本支出預(yù)算將高達(dá)50億美元。

????Colombia's Ecopetrol to triple Permian Basin investment this year to $600 million

????Colombia's state-controlled Ecopetrol plans to triple its investment in the US' Permian Basin this year to $600 million, in a sign of its increasing focus on foreign projects given stagnant domestic growth.

????CEO Felipe Bayon said Feb. 24 that the company's Texas joint venture with Occidental Petroleum will see production to Ecopetrol rise to as much as 14,000 b/d by the end of 2021 from an exit output of 4,500 b/d in 2020.

????Its output share there could reach 20,000 b/d by 2023, he said on a conference call with analysts.

????The company has already booked 160 million barrels in additional proved reserves since its 49% partnership interest was sealed in 2019.

????Ecopetrol and Oxy plan to drill a total of 90 wells in the Permian this year, financed in part by the Colombian company's $600 million investment, which would be up from $193 million last year. The company's total 2021 capex budget is slated at $3.5 billion-$4 billion at a $45/b Brent benchmark, but going as high as $5 billion if crude prices continue to rise.
