據OE網站7月1日報道，Equinor 公司位于挪威北海的馬丁·林格(Martin Linge)油氣田經過多年的拖延，以及巨大的成本超支，終于開始投產。

　　該油田原本預計在 2016 年開始生產，終于在周三中歐夏令時間21 時 56 分開始生產。

　　今年馬丁·林格油氣田開發的成本已上升到630億挪威克朗[約合73億美元]，而今年發展和運營計劃(PDO)的原始費用為315億挪威克朗[按2021年計算為36.50億美元]。

　　Equinor于2018年3月收購了道達爾在該油氣田的權益，以及完成該油氣田開發項目的運營和責任。

　　Equinor表示，大約有2500人在海上和陸上為該平臺的生產做準備。一般來說，海上完成一個延長幾個冬季的項目來說是具有挑戰性的。冠狀病毒大流行，加上對人員和其他感染控制措施的限制，也導致了進一步的延誤。

　　Equinor負責項目、鉆井和采購的執行副總裁 Arne Sigve Nylund表示，這是一項非常艱巨的工作，比預期的更具挑戰性，但我們已經與我們的供應商和我們的合作伙伴Petoro 一起完成了。馬丁·林格將在未來的許多年里為社會創造就業機會和價值。對于Martin Linge項目的所有工作人員、Equinor以及我們的合作伙伴Petoro來說，這是重要的日子。我要感謝每一個努力實現這個項目的人。

　　該油田的預期可采資源量約為2.6億桶油當量。產量平穩時，該油田的日產量約為11.5萬桶油當量。

　　據Equinor稱, 馬丁·林格平臺通過世界上最長的交流海底電纜接收電力，該電纜距離挪威西部kollsnes的陸上變電站163公里。

　　該平臺于 2018 年 12 月接入了岸電，不久之后，馬丁·林格油氣田的存儲船也加入進來。Equinor表示，這是世界上第一艘從岸上接收電力的儲存船。

　　Equinor表示，馬丁·林格也是挪威大陸架上第一個從海岸開始作業的平臺。

　　生產井和加工廠在斯塔萬格的控制室進行操作，海上作業人員在現場使用平板電腦與岸上控制室和作業中心的同事進行互動。陸上控制室將在運營階段降低成本。

　　挪威勘探與生產公司南部業務高級副總裁Rune Nedregaard表示，馬丁·林格是挪威油氣生產的重要貢獻者。由于這一地區的新基礎設施，今后將有可能實現新的發現。Equinor 已經組建了一個跨學科的團隊，他們正在尋找馬丁·林格周邊更廣闊的機會。

　　Equinor's Martin Linge Field Brought online after Years of Delays

　　After years of delays, and hefty cost overruns Equinor's Martin Linge oil and gas field in the North Sea off Norway, has come on on stream.

　　The field, which was originally expected to start producing in 2016, finally started production on Wednesday at 21.56 CEST.

　　"The costs of the Martin Linge field development have risen to BNOK 63 (2021 NOK) [USD 7.3 billion], compared to the original 31,5 [$3,65 billion in 2021 terms] in the 2012 plan for development and operation (PDO).

　　Equinor acquired Total’s interests in the field in March 2018, and the operatorship and responsibility for completing the field development project.

　　"Approximately 2500 people offshore and onshore have worked on preparing the platform for production. In general, offshore completion is challenging for a project extending over several winter seasons. The corona pandemic, with restrictions on personnel and other infection control measures, have also led to further delays," Equinor said.

　　"It has been a very demanding job, and more challenging than expected, but we have reached the finish line together with our suppliers and our partner Petoro. Martin Linge will now produce and create jobs and value for society for many years ahead,” says Arne Sigve Nylund, Equinor’s executive vice president for Projects, Drilling & Procurements.

　　“This is a big day for everyone working on the Martin Linge project, for Equinor, and for our partner Petoro. I would like to thank everyone who has worked hard to deliver this project,” Nylund said.

　　Expected recoverable resources from the field, powered from shore, are approximately 260 million barrels of oil equivalent (boe). At plateau, the field will produce around 115 000 boe per day.

　　Per Equinor, the Martin Linge platform receives power via the world’s longest alternating-current sea cable measuring 163 kilometers from the onshore substation at Kollsnes in Western Norway.

　　The platform was connected to shore power in December 2018 and was soon followed by the storage vessel on the Martin Linge field. This is the world’s first storage vessel receiving power from shore, Equinor said.

　　Martin Linge is also the first platform on the Norwegian continental shelf to be put on stream from shore, Equinor said.

　　The production wells and processing plant are operated from the control room in Stavanger, and the offshore operators use tablets in the field to interact with their colleagues in the onshore control room and operations center. onshore control room will reduce costs in the operating phase. Equinor said.

　　“Martin Linge is an important contribution to Norwegian oil and gas production. Thanks to new infrastructure in this area it will be possible to realize new discoveries in the future. Equinor has formed a cross-disciplinary team who is looking into the opportunities of a wider area surrounding Martin Linge,” says Rune Nedregaard, senior vice president for operations south of Exploration & Production Norway.
