巴西的Eneva SA希望将委内瑞拉长期被忽视的天然气转化为其他形式的能源，该公司表示，这种模式将在简化监管的情况下蓬勃发展。
Eneva SA wants to transform Venezuela’s long-neglected natural gas into other forms of energy, a model that it says would thrive with streamlined regulations.
这家总部位于里约热内卢的公司正在评估委内瑞拉的成熟油田，在那里它将把伴生天然气货币化，同时寻求在奥里诺科河石油带建立更多资本密集型绿地项目的合作伙伴关系，据Eneva委内瑞拉总干事伊万·贝当古说。
The Rio de Janeiro-based company is evaluating mature oil fields in Venezuela, where it would monetize associated natural gas, while pursuing partnerships for more capital-intensive greenfield projects in the Orinoco oil belt, according to Ivan Betancourt, Eneva’s director general for Venezuela.
他本周在加拉加斯举行的一次油气会议上接受采访时表示，该公司将把委内瑞拉的天然气开发成一系列“银行可接受的产品”，如石油液体、电力、甲醇和工业气体。
The company would develop Venezuela’s gas into a series of “bankable products” such as petroleum liquids, electricity, methanol and industrial gases, he said in an interview at a sold-out oil and gas conference in Caracas this week.
贝当古说，委内瑞拉要想成功扭转其能源部门的局面，就需要“协调监管环境”。他指的是该国单独的碳氢化合物、天然气和电力规则。
For Venezuela to succeed in turning around its energy sector, it needs to “to harmonize the regulatory environment,” Betancourt said, referring to the country’s separate hydrocarbons, gas and electricity rules.
与巴西不同，Eneva专门开发用于发电的偏远干天然气矿藏，大多数委内瑞拉天然气富含液体。他说，这是“一个挑战，也是一个重要的机会”。“这里的模式将对每个人都有利。”他补充说，埃内娃愿意单干，“只要有意义且规模合适。”
Unlike Brazil, where Eneva specializes in developing remote dry gas deposits for electricity generation, most Venezuelan gas is rich in liquids. That’s “a challenge but also a significant opportunity,” he said. “The model here is going to be beneficial for everybody.”Eneva is willing to go it alone, he added, “where it makes sense and the size is right.”
他说，埃内瓦正在与国有的委内瑞拉国家石油公司“直接对话”，预计年底前达成一份谅解备忘录，并形容PDVSA“非常乐于接受”。作为第二选择，Eneva正在寻求在加里诺科重油带（西班牙语称为Faja）建立“战略合作伙伴关系”，该带是世界上最大的石油和天然气矿藏之一。
Eneva is “talking directly” to state-owned Petroleos de Venezuela SA in anticipation ofg a memorandum of understanding by year-end, he said, describing PDVSA as “very receptive.”As a secondary option, Eneva is looking to forge a “strategic partnership” in the Orinoco heavy oil belt, known in Spanish as the Faja, one of the world’s largest deposits of oil and gas.
贝当古说：“法哈拥有大量储量，但从技术角度来看，它是最复杂的生产地点之一。”“你谈论‘我们将生产无数桶石油’，是的，随着时间的推移，这可能会发生，但这需要大量的投资、大量的技术能力、大量的技术。”挑战之一是获得混合原料来运输和加工石油带的特重油。
“The Faja has a significant amount of reserves, but from a technical point of view it is one of the most complex places to produce,” Betancourt said. “You talk about ‘we’re going to produce zillions and zillions of barrels of oil’, yes, it might happen over time, but it will require a lot of investment, a lot of technical capability, a lot of technology.”Among the challenges is accessing a blendstock to transport and process the oil belt’s extra-heavy oil.
Eneva最近与石油服务巨头Halliburton Co.签署了一项非约束力、非排他性协议，共同探索委内瑞拉的机会。
Eneva recently signed a non-binding, non-exclusive agreement with oil services giant Halliburton Co. to jointly explore opportunities in Venezuela.
贝当古说，埃尼瓦的目标不是储量丰富、需要数千口油井和大量技术专业知识和资本来开采的法哈，而是“一个产量较低的成熟油田”。他补充说，在西部马拉开波湖周围或东部北莫纳加斯靠近基础设施和物流的油田，“短期内经济状况可能会更好”。
Rather than the reserves-rich Faja that requires thousands of wells and considerable technical expertise and capital to tap, Eneva is eyeing “a mature field with lower production,” Betancourt said. “The economics may work better in the short term for us” in fields around Lake Maracaibo in the west or North Monagas in the east, near infrastructure and logistics, he added.
