据路透社3月7日奥斯陆报道，挪威国有石油公司Petoro周四表示，2018年挪威大陆架石油生产成本在连续三年下降后有所上升。

在2014年原油价格大幅下跌之后，削减成本成为石油公司的重要议程，这使得开发以前被认为过于昂贵的油田成为可能，包括Equinor的北极Johan Castberg油田。

然而，油价已部分回升，成本通胀也因此恢复。

“生产成本降低的积极趋势已经逆转，成本在2018年有所增加，”负责管理挪威政府海外许可证股份的Petoro在其年度报告中表示。

它补充说，由于电力和碳排放价格上涨以及运营领域的成本普遍提高，调整后的生产成本（包括运营和维护成本）同比增长7％。

Petoro本身并不是运营商，而是众多许可证的合作伙伴，包括挪威最大的油气公司Equinor运营的油田。

Cost of producing Norway's oil and gas is rising again

Petroleum production costs on the Norwegian continental shelf rose in 2018 after falling for three consecutive years, state-owned oil firm Petoro said on Thursday.

Cost cuts were high on oil firms’ agenda following a sharp fall in crude prices in 2014, making it possible to develop discoveries that had previously been considered too expensive, including Equinor’s Arctic Johan Castberg field.

Oil prices have partly recovered however, and cost inflation has thus returned.

“The positive trend of reduction in production costs have reversed and costs increased in 2018,” Petoro, which manages the Norwegian government’s stakes in offshore licenses, said in its annual report.

Adjusted production costs, including operating and maintenance costs, rose by 7 percent year-on-year, driven by higher power and carbon emission prices, as well as generally higher costs of operating fields, it added.

Petoro is not itself an operator, but is a partner in a large number of licenses, including fields operated by Norway’s largest oil and gas firm Equinor.
