伊拉克考慮在波斯灣建人工島提高石油出口能力
中國石化新聞網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)美國彭博新聞社3月19日巴格達報道，歐佩克第二大產油國伊拉克時下正在加大力度來擴大開采和出口石油的能力，伊拉克制定的計劃包括把海水注入油田以及在位于波斯灣的一個人工島上建造石油出口設施。
國營巴士拉石油公司總經理賈巴爾日前在一次采訪中說，伊拉克時下正在尋求來自6家公司對一個估計40億美元項目的投標。這個項目將把海水注入伊拉克南部的油田來從這些油田中開采出更多的原油。
賈巴爾說，巴士拉石油公司迄今已收到5家公司的報價。這5家公司有興趣建造一個處理設施把馬季努恩油田的石油日產量提高一倍至200萬桶。但他沒有披露投標公司的名字。
賈巴爾在巴士拉說，伊拉克時下還在研究一家荷蘭公司提出的有關在位于波斯灣的一個人工島上建造1000萬桶儲存設施和一個具有200萬桶/天能力的石油出口設施。

Iraq mulls building an island to boost oil-exporting capacity
OPEC’s second-biggest producer is ramping up efforts to expand capacity to pump and export oil, with plans that include the injection of seawater into crude deposits and the construction of export facilities on a man-made island in the Persian Gulf.
Iraq is seeking bids from six companies for an estimated $4-billion project to inject seawater into its southern oil fields to dislodge more crude from the deposits, Ihsan Abdul Jabbar, the director-general of state-run Basra Oil Co., said in an interview. The country has already received bids from five companies interested in building a processing facility to double output at the Majnoon field to 450,000 bpd, he said, without identifying the bidders.
Iraq is also studying a proposal with a Dutch company to build a 10-MMbbl storage facility and an oil-exporting terminal with a capacity of 2 MMbpd -- all on an artificial island off the country’s Gulf coast, Abdul Jabbar said in Basra.
