据海湾油气网8月31日休斯顿报道，总部位于美国德克萨斯州的著名油气生产公司诺布尔能源公司(Noble Energy)日前在位于赤道几内亚海上的1号区块内获得了一个新的石油发现。

这家美国公司预计将在今年10月前利用现有的基础设施从这个新石油发现生产石油。

发现井Aseng 6P井完钻时的总深度超过了4000米。诺布尔能源公司正在把这个新石油发现与Aseng油田现有的基础设施连接起来。Aseng油田有5口水下油井，与一艘浮式产油储油卸油(FPSO)船相连。

Noble Energy Makes Oil Discovery Offshore Equatorial Guinea

Noble Energy has made a new discovery in Block 1 offshore Equatorial Guinea, with the U.S. company expecting to produce new oil by tapping into existing infrastructure by October. The Aseng 6P well was drilled to a depth of more than 4,000 metres and Noble was in the process of connecting it to existing infrastructure in the Aseng field, which has five subsea wells connected to a floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel.

Noble Energy is the operator of Aseng with a 40 percent interest and counts Glencore, Gunvor and Atlas Petroleum as partners.
