據今日石油網6月29日蘇里南帕拉馬里博報道，蘇里南最近在第58號區塊內又獲得了新的石油發現，使這個南美洲國家的可采資源量超過50億桶油當量。但這個數字僅僅是蘇里南盆地被認為擁有的石油儲量的一小部分。

由蘇里南國家石油公司（Staatsolie）獲得的地震數據表明，蘇里南盆地擁有大約300億桶油當量儲量，根據Staatsolie海上作業副總裁Glenn Corrie的話說，這才是蘇里南盆地的“真正的價值”。

Corrie是在蘇里南首都帕拉馬里博舉行的蘇里南能源、石油和天然氣峰會（SEOGS）上演講時發表上述講話的。

目前，蘇里南只有40%的海上石油區塊（約3200萬英畝）獲得了開發許可證，剩下60%的區塊尚未開發，且潛力巨大。

Corrie說：“蘇里南盆地中大約有300億桶油當量可采石油資源量，我們還沒有找到開采范圍。 這是未來活動的真正機會。這才是蘇里南盆地真正的價值所在。”

在今年第4季度前，蘇里南60%的未勘探海上探區將被出售，蘇里南希望為其油氣資源的開發創造良好的財政條件。

2023年，這個講荷蘭語的國家還計劃再次拍賣本國海上淺水區塊。  

Staatsolie副總裁表示：“這是一個絕對不能錯過的機會。”

Massive 30 billion barrels of oil now estimated offshore Suriname

Suriname’s recent oil finds in Block 58 put the South American nation’s recoverable resource count at over five billion oil-equivalent barrels. But that number is merely a tiny fraction of what is believed to be held in the Suriname basin.

Seismic data obtained by Staatsolie, Suriname’s National Oil Company (NOC), suggests that the Suriname basin holds some 30 billion barrels of oil equivalent and this, according to Staatsolie’s Vice President of Offshore, Glenn Corrie, “is the real prize”.

He was at the time giving a presentation at the Suriname Energy, Oil and Gas Summit (SEOGS) being held in the nation’s capital, Paramaribo.

Currently, just 40% of Suriname’s offshore oil blocks have been licensed, some 32 million acres, leaving over 60% untouched and ripe with potential.

“… about 30 billion barrels of oil recoverable resource is sitting there in the basin, that is yet to find our scope. That is the real opportunity for future activity. That is the real prize,” he stated.

By the fourth quarter, the 60% of unexplored offshore acreage will be up for grabs and Suriname is looking to get good fiscal terms for the development of its oil and gas resources.

In 2023, the Dutch-speaking nation has also planned another auction for shallow water blocks.

“It is an opportunity absolutely not to be missed,” the Staatsolie VP stated.
