据Ruth Liao、Rodrigo Orihuela和Antonio Vanuzzo报道，随着特朗普政府推动开发南美国家的能源储备，埃尼（Eni SpA）和雷普索尔（Repsol SA）正在考虑引入外部投资者参与委内瑞拉海岸的Perla天然气田项目。
SpA and Repsol SA are considering bringing in outside investors into the giant Perla natural gas field off Venezuela’s coast, as the Trump administration pushes to unlock the South American country’s energy reserves.
这两家各持有该项目50%股份的合作伙伴正在评估是否出售部分股份以筹集更多资金，用于该气田的开发。埃尼和雷普索尔拒绝对此事发表评论。
The two partners, which each own 50% of the offshore venture, are evaluating whether to sell a portion of their stakes to bring in more funds, according to people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified discussing confidential information. The capital would be used to help develop the field.
委内瑞拉虽然拥有丰富的石油储备，但其天然气资源尚未实现出口。
Eni and Repsol declined to comment.
上个月，委内瑞拉与美国宣布与包括雪佛龙（Chevron Corp.）、GE Vernova Inc.和埃尼在内的多家石油公司合作，旨在提高原油产量。
Venezuela, which holds vast oil reserves, also has very large gas deposits. But the nation doesn’t export it.
同时，埃尼和雷普索尔已与加拉加斯签署协议，计划到2031年底开始从该国出口天然气，试图重启长期停滞的Perla气田扩产计划。
Last month, Venezuela and the US announced partnerships with major oil companies including Chevron Corp., GE Vernova Inc. and Eni aimed at boosting crude production.
据彭博社今年早些时候报道，他们目标是将委内瑞拉湾Perla气田的产量提高一倍以上，并通过浮动终端以液化天然气的形式进行出口。
At the same time, Eni and Repsol have signed an agreement with Caracas to start exporting gas from the country by the end of 2031, seeking to revive a long-stalled effort to expand production from Perla. They aim to more than double production from the field in the Gulf of Venezuela and export the fuel as liquefied natural gas from a floating terminal, Bloomberg reported earlier this year.
