石油设备网讯 据管道新闻网5月28日消息称，壳牌中游公司宣布普罗透斯石油管道公司（“Proteus”）和恩底弥翁石油管道公司（“Endymion”）拥有的系统通过壳牌石油管道有限公司拥有和运营多年的新调试的马托克斯管道，从壳牌操作的阿波马托克斯浮式生产系统的启动中增加了原油量。壳牌中游公司拥有普罗透斯和恩底弥翁各10％的股份。
壳牌中游公司首席执行官Kevin Nichols表示：“墨西哥湾仍是美国石油产量的重要组成部分，这一点从这些新增产量就可以看出。在过去三年里，墨西哥湾19个被批准的项目中，大部分都流经我们的系统，为我们提供了获取增长的理想位置。我们的离岸走廊战略正在发挥作用，我们对墨西哥湾提供的韧性和增长感到满意。”
阿波马托克斯目前预计日产量为17.5万桶，并于2019年5月23日实现了首次采油。马托克斯输油管道将石油从阿波马托克斯输往普罗图斯和恩迪米恩系统，这两个系统最终通过洛杉机储藏中心连接到陆上市场。

Shell Midstream Partners, L.P. announces transportation of first oil from Appomattox
Shell Midstream Partners, L.P. announced that the systems owned by Proteus Oil Pipeline Company LLC (“Proteus”) and Endymion Oil Pipeline Company LLC (“Endymion”) increased volumes of crude oil from the start-up of the Shell-operated Appomattox floating production system via the newly commissioned Mattox Pipeline (“Mattox”), which is majority owned and operated by Shell Pipeline Company LP (“SPLC”). Shell Midstream Partners owns a 10% interest in each of Proteus and Endymion.
“The Gulf of Mexico remains an important part of the US production story – as evidenced by these new volumes,” said Kevin Nichols, CEO, Shell Midstream Partners. “Over the last three years, most of the 19 sanctioned projects across the Gulf of Mexico flow through our systems, giving us the ideal position to capture growth. Our offshore corridor strategy is working – and we are pleased with the resilience and growth that the Gulf of Mexico provides.”
Appomattox, which currently has an expected production of 175 000 boe/d, achieved first oil on 23 May 2019. The Mattox Pipeline is transporting oil from Appomattox into the Proteus and Endymion systems which ultimately connect to onshore markets via the Clovelly, LA storage hub.
