墨西哥將在9月拍賣中首次提供頁巖區塊
中國石化新聞網訊 據WENews.com網站3月3日墨西哥城報道，墨西哥將在今年9月份拍賣頁巖區塊的開發權，這將是墨西哥有史以來首次向私營石油公司提供開發這種在美國已經蓬勃發展多年的資源的機會。
墨西哥石油監管機構墨西哥國家油氣委員會（CNH）周四發起了對其首個頁巖招標投標的呼吁。首個頁巖招標包括9個將在9月5日頒發的合同區域。
這些區塊位于墨西哥的布爾戈斯盆地，位于墨西哥塔毛利帕斯州西北部邊境地區，墨西哥國家石油公司（Pemex）在過去在這個州內已鉆取了大約20口勘探井。
CNH總裁胡安·卡洛斯·塞佩達說，贏得開發權的公司將能開發常規油氣儲量以及位于常規油氣儲量上面或下面的頁巖地層。

Mexico To Offer First-Ever Shale Blocks In September Auction
Mexico will auction development rights to shale blocks in September, marking the first time the country has offered private oil companies the chance to develop the resource, which has been booming in the United States for years.
The National Hydrocarbons Commission (CNH), Mexico's oil regulator, on Thursday launched a call for bids for its first shale tender including nine contractual areas that will be awarded on Sept. 5.
The blocks are in Mexico's Burgos Basin, in the northwestern border state of Tamaulipas, where state-owned oil company Pemex has drilled some 20 exploratory wells in the past.
CNH President Juan Carlos Zepeda said companies that win development rights will be able to tap conventional oil and gas deposits as well as shale formations that may lie above or below.
