中国石化新闻网讯 据油气新闻5月28日消息称，哥伦比亚石油监管机构周三宣布，该国已探明的石油储量在过去一年中略有增长，达到7.5年的消费量，该国正在寻求更多的钻探目标，尤其是海上油田。

根据行业监管机构ANH发布的数据，2022年探明储量总计20.74亿桶，比上年增长1.7%，即约3500万桶。

与此同时，去年的石油总产量达到约2.75亿桶，即每天约75.3万桶。

今年到目前为止，石油产量增长了近3%，达到77.3万桶/天。

虽然哥伦比亚的石油工业仍然是一个重要的收入来源，但政府承诺将从石油和煤炭等化石燃料转向更多的绿色能源。

预计政府将很快就新的勘探合同做出决定，以增加新发现以取代老化油田。

ANH的数据显示，与石油储量不同，去年年底已探明的天然气储量略有下降，降至2.82万亿立方英尺，相当于7.2年的消费量。

去年全年该国天然气产量为0.39万亿立方英尺。

矿业和能源部长Irene Velez指出，2022年的采收率提高了，从2021年的21%增加到23%，采收率是衡量油井可采出多少石油的比率。

Velez在声明中表示：“我们将继续与碳氢化合物行业合作，以实现海上项目。”

Colombia’s proven oil reserves tick up slightly to 7.5 years worth

Colombia’s proven oil reserves grew slightly over the past year, the oil regulator announced on Wednesday, to reach 7.5 years-worth of consumption, as the country looks to certify more drilling targets, especially from offshore fields.

The 2022 proven reserves totaled 2.074 billion barrels, up 1.7% from the previous year, or by about 35 million barrels,according to the data released by sector regulator ANH.

Total oil production last year, meanwhile, reached around 275 million barrels, or some 753,000 barrels per day (bpd).

So far this year, oil output is up almost 3% at about 773,000 bpd.

While Colombia’s oil industry remains an important source of revenue, President has pledged to shift away from fossilfuels, including oil and coal, to more green energy.

The government is expected to decide soon on new exploration contracts, needed to add new discoveries to replace aging fields.

Unlike the oil reserves, proven natural gas reserves at the end of last year edged down, dropping slightly to reach 2.82 trillion cubic feet (Tcf), or equivalent to 7.2 years of consumption, the ANH data showed.

Gas production for the year totaled 0.39 Tcf.

Mines and Energy Minister Irene Velez pointed to 2022’s improved recovery factor – a rate that measures how much oil can be extracted from a well – which increased to 23%, from 21% in 2021.

“We will continue working with the hydrocarbons sector so offshore projects materialize,” said Velez, as quoted in the ANH statement.
