石油设备网讯 据普氏能源资讯墨西哥城5月21日消息 墨西哥国家石油周二表示，将扩大对韦拉克鲁斯盆地山麓地带油气田的勘探。据估计，韦拉克鲁斯盆地拥有15亿桶石油储量。
墨西哥国家石油在一段视频中表示，该公司在2016年发现了巨大的Ixachi油田，拥有超过13亿桶已探明、可能和可能储量的油当量。并表示，Ixachi油田预计到2023年将日产8万桶轻质原油和凝析油，再加上600百万立方英尺/天的天然气。
墨西哥国家石油公司表示，该公司已开始开发，预计将耗资580亿比索(合30亿美元)，目前该油田日产量为3900桶和3000万立方英尺。
墨国油周二补充称将钻探Ixachi-1101和Ixachi 2001两口新的评估井，以期进一步扩大该油田的储量。
最近几周，墨西哥国家碳氢化合物委员会已经批准了韦拉克鲁斯盆地的另外两个高压高温勘探目标。分别是Rabassa 1001-EXP和Yaxjut-1EXP，它们将在年底前完成。

Pemex to further explore foothill oil, gas targets in onshore southern Mexico
Mexico's state Pemex said Tuesday it will expand its exploration of a foothill trend along the Veracruz Basin holding an estimated 1.5 billion boe of prospective resources.
Pemex in 2016 found the giant Ixachi Field, which has over 1.3 billion boe of proved, possible and probable reserves, the company said in a video to accompany a presentation by President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador later in the day. Ixachi is expected to produce 80,000 b/d of light crude and condensates plus 600 MMcf/d of gas by 2023, Pemex said.
The company has begun its development, which is expected to cost Peso 58 billion ($3 billion), and the field currently produces 3,900 b/d and 30 MMcf/d, Pemex said.
Pemex Tuesday also said it was going to drill two new appraisal wells, Ixachi-1101 and Ixachi 2001, hoping to extend the field's reserves further.
In recent weeks, Mexico's National Hydrocarbon Commission already approved two other high-pressure, high-temperature exploration targets in the Veracruz Basin. These are Rabassa 1001-EXP and Yaxjut-1EXP, which are to completed before the end of the year.
