“柬埔寨人,Rosebank代表伊薩卡島的機會開發領域,將為英國的能源安全做出重大貢獻”。伊薩卡能源獲得了Siccar點的運營商有爭議的柬埔寨人在北海油田領域為15.2億美元。它就在一天前,鮑裏斯·約翰遜北海生產英國能源戰略的一個要點。柬埔寨人一直是一個試金石環保人士的廣泛抗議對該領域的發展。Siccar擁有70%的柬埔寨人,與殼牌其餘部分,但是英國石油巨頭已經倒轉的承諾表示將在12月,輟學導致發展被擱置。最近報道說殼牌可能再次改變主意與油價在110美元一桶,雖然今天表示,它的位置不變。明年預計最終的投資決策。未上市的伊薩卡,相比之下,沒有這樣的疑慮,說Siccar收購將鞏固地位領先英國北海的勘探生產操作員。柬埔寨人,這筆交易包括Rosebank,另一個未開發的領域,並結合這兩個最大的未開發和最具有重要戰略意義的發現在英國北海、。Siccar點已經在生產包括Schiehallion和水手的資產領域,在英國排名前十的生產商,與玉氣田感興趣,伊薩卡島是一個現有的合作夥伴。 Adding Siccar Point’s assets will double its recoverable reserves and support the production of at least 80,000 - 90,000 boe/d through the next decade, Ithaca added. “Cambo and Rosebank represent an opportunity for Ithaca to develop fields that will contribute significantly to the UK's energy security. The Cambo field on its own is anticipated to deliver up to 170 million barrels of oil equivalent during its 25-year operational life,” said its statement. Alan Bruce, chief executive, added: "This is a transformational deal for the company which cements Ithaca's position as a leading independent E&P operator in the North Sea... and means that we now have interests in a significant portion of the largest UKCS fields". Yesterday, the UK government announced a new licensing round for oil and gas projects in the North Sea adding that producing gas in the UK had a lower carbon footprint than that imported from abroad. "The development of the Cambo and Rosebank fields is a huge opportunity to not only help secure the UK's energy future for at least another quarter of a century, but also to create thousands of direct and indirect jobs in the process", said Bruce. Payment for Siccar comprises US$1.1bn upfront and a series of contingent payments totalling a maximum of US$360mln (mostly linked to new developments) with a further US$60mln contingent on crude and gas prices. Operatorship of key UK assets will transfer to Ithaca on closing with Siccor's management also moving across.
