据离岸工程9月16日报道称,图洛石油公司首席执行官Paul McDade周一表示,继在圭亚那发现第二批石油后,该公司计划明年在该国钻探三口或更多石油勘探井。
继上个月发现Jethro-1油田之后,伦敦上市的图洛石油公司宣布,它也在Orinduik区块的Joe-1井中发现了石油。
在格林尼治标准时间16:30(美国东部时间下午12:30),图洛的股价上涨超过8%,这也与周末沙特阿拉伯的生产设施遭到袭击后原油价格大幅上涨有关。
圭亚那没有生产石油的历史,但近年来图洛和埃克森美孚公司的一系列近海发现将改变这个南美国家的经济。预计明年将出现第一批原油供应。
“圭亚那继续受到我国大量石油发现的鼓舞,”政府能源主管Mark Bynoe在一份声明中表示。“对所有圭亚那人来说,专注于如何支出和投资石油收入的时机已经成熟。”

Tullow to Drill at Least 3 New Guyana Wells in 2020
Tullow Oil plans to drill three or more oil exploration wells in Guyana next year, Chief Executive Officer Paul McDade said on Monday after the firm's second oil discovery in the country.
Following the Jethro-1 discovery last month, London-listed Tullow announced it had also hit oil at the Joe-1 well in the Orinduik block.
Tullow shares were trading more than 8% higher at 16:30 GMT (12:30 p.m. EDT), also supported by a sharp rise in crude oil prices following a weekend attack on Saudi Arabia's production facilities.
Guyana has no history of oil production, but a series of offshore discoveries in recent years by Tullow and Exxon Mobil are set to transform the South American country's economy. The first crude flows are expected next year.
"Guyana continues to be encouraged by the prolific rate of discovery in our country," Mark Bynoe, the government's energy director, said in a statement. "The time is ripe for all Guyanese to focus on how they want to see their oil revenues spent and invested."
