石油和天然气生产商Ithaca Energy董事长Yaniv Friedman周二在接受《金融时报》采访时表示,如果政府不批准其北海Rosebank油田项目,该公司可能会暂停在英国的进一步投资。
Friedman表示,公司希望在北海继续投资,但需要适当的监管和政治支持,他呼应了竞争对手Equinor的担忧。Ithaca Energy持有Rosebank油田20%的股份,其余由Adura持有,Adura是Equinor和Shell的合资企业。
Oil and gas producer Ithaca Energy will likely halt further investment in Britain if the government does not approve its Rosebank oilfield in the North Sea, chair Yaniv Friedman said in an interview with the Financial Times on Tuesday.
英国能源部长上周表示,虽然北海Jackdaw气田的决定即将出炉,但Rosebank的审批可能需要更长时间。
Friedman称,英国目前正面临来自其他机遇的竞争,特别提到Ithaca以12亿加元(约8.5088亿美元)从加拿大Suncor Energy收购的三项海上石油资产。Ithaca Energy未能立即回应路透社的置评请求。
The company wants to invest further in the North Sea but needs the appropriate regulatory and political support, Friedman said, echoing rival Equinor's (EQNR.OL)concerns Ithaca Energy owns 20% of Rosebank, with the rest held by Adura, a joint venture between Equinor and Shell (SHEL.L) Britain's energy minister said last week that while a decision on the Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea is imminent, Rosebank will take a little longer The UK is now competing with other opportunities in Canada, the chair said, referring to Ithaca's C$1.2 billion ($850.88 million) acquisition of three offshore oil assets from Canada's Suncor Energy (SU.TO) Ithaca Energy did not immediately respond to Reuters' request for comment
