据OGJ网站7月25日报道，墨尔本卡隆能源有限公司签署协议，以6.55亿美元收购巴西桑托斯盆地特许经营BM-S-40的Bauna油田100％的经营权益。

租赁区有两个生产油气存储器-Bauna和Piracaba-这两个油气存储都与租赁的西达德·德·伊塔贾伊浮式生产、储存和卸货船联系在一起。另一个未开发的发现叫做帕托拉就在附近。

卡隆说，在计划的开发改造之前，这些存储器目前每天生产2万桶轻质含硫原油。

卡隆董事总经理罗伯特·霍斯金(Robert Hosking)表示，这笔收购预计还将为该公司现有的全资拥有的南部桑托斯盆地资产Neon和Gola的潜在发展提供物质运营和物流上的协同效应。

霍斯金表示，该公司一直在努力工作3年，以获得具有强劲经济回报的高质量生产资产。

购货价格将从2019年1月1日起的实际销售日起由经营现金流抵消。

该交易有待巴西最终监管部门批准，预计将于2020年上半年完成。

Karoon acquires Bauna oil field offshore Brazil

Karoon Energy Ltd., Melbourne, has signed an agreement to acquire a 100% operating interest in Bauna field in concession BM-S-40 in the Santos basin offshore Brazil for $665 million.

The concession has two producing reservoirs—Bauna and Piracaba—both of which are tied back to the leased Cidade de Itajai floating production, storage, and offloading vessel. Another undeveloped discovery called Patola is nearby.

Karoon said the reservoirs are currently producing 20,000 b/d of light, sweet crude before planned development workovers.

Robert Hosking, Karoon managing director, said the acquisition also is expected to deliver material operational and logistical synergies for the potential development of the company’s existing wholly owned southern Santos basin assets, Neon and Gola.

“The company has been working hard for 3 years to acquire a high-quality production asset with robust economic returns,” Hosking said.

The purchase price will be offset by operating cash flows from the effective sale date of Jan. 1, 2019.

The transaction is subject to final Brazilian regulatory approval, which is expected during first-half 2020.
