Colin Kinley, Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer of Eco Atlantic, commented:
Eco Atlantic聯合創始人兼首席運營官科林·金利評論說:
"We are very happy to have support from the Minister of Natural Resources and the Government of Guyana and their approval to transfer 60% of the Working Interest and Operatorship of the Orinduik Block to Eco. We have always been very involved with the exploration and interpretation of the Block, and our experienced team will step directly into Operatorship to finalize target selection.
“我們很高興得到自然資源部長和圭亞那政府的支持,他們批准將Orinduik區塊60%的營運權益和運營權轉讓給Eco。我們一直積極參與區塊的探索和解讀,我們經驗豐富的團隊將直接進入Operatorship以完成目標選擇。
"After nearly 10 years of exploration and interpretation, and multiple regional discoveries at the Cretaceous level of close to 11 Billion Barrels of recoverable oil, our team has a good understanding of the Cretaceous play and we have a great deal of confidence in drilling our first well, targeting a stacked pay target in this well proven horizon. This Transaction structure allows Tullow to continue to share upside in a discovery.
“經過近10年的勘探和解讀,以及在白堊紀水平上多次發現接近110億桶的可開採石油,我們的團隊對白堊紀的開採情況有了很好的了解,我們對鑽探我們的第一口油井充滿信心,在這個久經考驗的地平線上實現高薪目標。這種交易結構使塔洛能夠繼續分享一項發現的上行空間。
"Eco now seeks qualified partners in this high-value play and has commenced a formal farm-out process for the Block. Recent interest from supermajors and other well capitalized energy companies in the latest licencing bid round in Guyana, for blocks up dip of us, supports our thesis of the oil migration and the high quality and charged reservoirs we see on our Block."
“Eco現在正在這個高價值的項目中尋找合格的合作伙伴,並已開始了該區塊的正式分包程序。超級巨頭和其他資本充足的能源公司最近對圭亞那最新一輪的許可競標感興趣,這支持了我們關於石油遷移以及我們在區塊上看到的高質量和帶電儲層的論點。”
