DSME, Songa rig dispute deepensNorwegian rig contractor Songa Offshore says it is not responsible for losses incurred by Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering during the construction of one of its rigs. Songa said Tuesday it had received $199 million in claims submissions from the Korean shipbuilder for costs related to the semisubmursible Category D Songa Equinox.DSME asserts that inherent errors and omissions in the rig's design led to cost overruns and construction delays, but Songa says these claims are without substance."DSME is responsible for the delays and any attempt to recover cost overruns is of no merit due to the 'turn-key' nature of the construction contract," Songa said in a release.The confrontation is part of a larger dispute surrounding four Category D rigs: Songa Equinox, Songa Endurance, Songa Encourage and SongaEnabler. DSME launched arbitration proceedings in July.Statoil has hired all four rigs on eight-year firm contracts. Songa Offshore与大宇造船陷超支纠纷海上钻井承包商Songa Offshore和大宇造船就“Songa Equinox”号半潜式钻井平台的建造合同发生纠纷。

Songa Offshore已经成功接收“Songa Equinox”号,这是4座Category D型半潜式钻井平台中的首座,该钻井平台租给挪威国油,已经在10月抵达挪威海域。

2015年7月,Songa Offshore从大宇造船收到Category D型钻井平台建造合同的仲裁通知,然而当时大宇造船并没有说明具体争议。

2015年11月16日,Songa Offshore收到大宇造船的通知,要求赔偿1.99亿美元。

Songa Offshore表示,索赔涉及“Songa Equinox”号钻井平台建造成本超支。

大宇造船指控图纸设计固有错误导致遗漏额外的工作,造成建造成本超支。

Songa Offshore已经对索赔进行初步审查,认为大宇造船没有任何索赔的权利。

Songa Offshore表示有信心坚持自己的立场,认为大宇造船延迟交付、企图收回超支成本是没有任何法律依据的,违反建造合同“交钥匙”的本质。

Statoil to exit Alaska17 November 2015 14:23 GMTStatoil has decided to exit Alaska, as the leases in the Chukchi Sea are “no longer considered competitive within its global portfolio”, the Norwegian state-owned player said on Tuesday.The decision to drop its exploration portfolio in the area will mean leaving behind 16 Statoil-operated leases and its stake in 50 leases operated by ConocoPhillips.The leases, awarded in the 2008 lease sale, expire in 2020.Following the exit, Statoil will also close its office in Anchorage, it said."Since 2008 we have worked to progress our options in Alaska. Solid work has been carried out, but given the current outlook we could not support continued efforts to mature these opportunities," vice president for exploration Tim Dodson said.“Our understanding of the challenges and opportunities has increased considerably over the last years. This gives Statoil a unique position and experience which the company will continue to apply going forward,” Dodson continued.According to Dodson, “the studies, research and activities which have taken place in Alaska ... can be leverages in other opportunities in northern environments in the future”.In October, the US cancelled two lease sales in the Beaufort and Chukchi seas off Alaska, citing a lack of interest in the play following Shell's decision to abandon its high-profile drilling campaign in the area.The Department of the Interior (DoI) said at the time that it did not plan on hosting any further sales in the near future, as the industry’s interest in the two potential lease sales to be rolled out in 2016 and 2017 was nominal at best. 挪威国家石油公司退出阿拉斯加地区勘探业务挪威国家石油公司(Statoil)正在退出阿拉斯加地区的勘探业务,并关闭位于该州首府安克雷奇的办公室。

”该决定意味着挪国油将退出该公司运营的16个勘探租约区以及康菲石油公司运营的50个勘探租约区的股权。

这些勘探租约区均位于楚科奇海。

该公司在2008年获得了这些将于2020年到期的勘探租约。

”哥伦比亚将下调石油公司税率鼓励海上勘探作业哥伦比亚矿业和能源部长托马斯·冈萨雷斯11月9日在一份声明中披露,哥伦比亚将下调那些在位于加勒比海的一些海上区块内进行钻井作业的石油公司的石油税税率,哥伦比亚政府此举旨在鼓励石油公司在全球原油价格暴跌之际增加海上油气勘探作业。

冈萨雷斯在声明中说,各种海上区块合同的所得税将获得25%的折扣并将免征增值税和报关费。

冈萨雷斯说:“我们已经看到了哥伦比亚加勒比海油气未来的潜力。

这就是我们更积极投资海上油气资源的原因,我们将采取那些将激励勘探和生产的措施。

”他补充说,此举将有助于在中期内把哥伦比亚原油日产量保持在近100万桶。

该安第斯国家9月份平均日产100.7万桶原油。
