据OE网站7月1日报道，Equinor 公司位于挪威北海的马丁·林格(Martin Linge)油气田经过多年的拖延，以及巨大的成本超支，终于开始投产。

　　该油田原本预计在 2016 年开始生产，终于在周三中欧夏令时间21 时 56 分开始生产。

　　今年马丁·林格油气田开发的成本已上升到630亿挪威克朗[约合73亿美元]，而今年发展和运营计划(PDO)的原始费用为315亿挪威克朗[按2021年计算为36.50亿美元]。

　　Equinor于2018年3月收购了道达尔在该油气田的权益，以及完成该油气田开发项目的运营和责任。

　　Equinor表示，大约有2500人在海上和陆上为该平台的生产做准备。一般来说，海上完成一个延长几个冬季的项目来说是具有挑战性的。冠状病毒大流行，加上对人员和其他感染控制措施的限制，也导致了进一步的延误。

　　Equinor负责项目、钻井和采购的执行副总裁 Arne Sigve Nylund表示，这是一项非常艰巨的工作，比预期的更具挑战性，但我们已经与我们的供应商和我们的合作伙伴Petoro 一起完成了。马丁·林格将在未来的许多年里为社会创造就业机会和价值。对于Martin Linge项目的所有工作人员、Equinor以及我们的合作伙伴Petoro来说，这是重要的日子。我要感谢每一个努力实现这个项目的人。

　　该油田的预期可采资源量约为2.6亿桶油当量。产量平稳时，该油田的日产量约为11.5万桶油当量。

　　据Equinor称, 马丁·林格平台通过世界上最长的交流海底电缆接收电力，该电缆距离挪威西部kollsnes的陆上变电站163公里。

　　该平台于 2018 年 12 月接入了岸电，不久之后，马丁·林格油气田的存储船也加入进来。Equinor表示，这是世界上第一艘从岸上接收电力的储存船。

　　Equinor表示，马丁·林格也是挪威大陆架上第一个从海岸开始作业的平台。

　　生产井和加工厂在斯塔万格的控制室进行操作，海上作业人员在现场使用平板电脑与岸上控制室和作业中心的同事进行互动。陆上控制室将在运营阶段降低成本。

　　挪威勘探与生产公司南部业务高级副总裁Rune Nedregaard表示，马丁·林格是挪威油气生产的重要贡献者。由于这一地区的新基础设施，今后将有可能实现新的发现。Equinor 已经组建了一个跨学科的团队，他们正在寻找马丁·林格周边更广阔的机会。

　　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.
