據今日油價網站8月12日消息 烏干達將成為今年11月開普敦非洲能源周(AEW)的一個重點,因為其蓬勃發展的石油工業看來將在未來幾年蓬勃發展。烏干達政府最近一直在努力鼓勵更多的外國投資,因為該國的目標是在未來十年大力發展其石油和天然氣行業。
AEW 2021將烏干達列為開普敦的重中之重。非洲能源商會執行主席NJ Ayuk表示:“該國豐富的資源、政治意愿和活躍的當地商業行業將使該國成為地區領導者,從而保證增加外國投資和相關發展。”
目前,烏干達估計擁有65億桶原油,遠低于非洲石油領袖尼日利亞,但就地區平均水平而言,這是一個相當大的數量。這可能使其在石油儲量方面在區域排名第五(如果探明的話),并鼓勵該行業的更大發展。目前,這些數量中有14億桶被認為是經濟上可采的。烏干達還希望在全面投產后將其生產水平提高到23萬桶/日的峰值。
自道達爾收購烏干達以來,烏干達一直在快速發展該行業,投入使用了世界上最長的電加熱管道,全長1440公里,耗資約35億美元。出口管道將從烏干達西部通往坦桑尼亞的印度洋港口坦加,為烏干達石油建立更大的國際聯系。

Uganda’s Oil Boom Is only Just Beginning
Uganda is set to be a key focus of African Energy Week (AEW) in Cape Town this November, as its flourishing oil industry looks set to boom in the coming years. Uganda’s government has been working hard to encourage more foreign investment recently as the country aims to develop its oil and gas industry significantly over the next decade.
“AEW 2021 has placed Uganda as a top priority in Cape Town. The country’s significant resources, political will, and active local business sector will position the country as a regional leader, warranting an increase in foreign investment and associated developments,” stated NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman of the African Energy Chamber.
At present, Uganda holds an estimated 6.5 billion barrels of crude oil, far less than African oil leader Nigeria but a significant amount in terms of the regional average. This could put it in fifth place regionally for oil reserves if proven, and encourage greater development in the sector. At present, 1.4 billion of these barrels are thought to be economically recoverable. Uganda also hopes to boost its production levels to a peak of 230,000 bpd when fully operational.
Uganda has been fast-developing the industry since Total’s takeover, commissioning the world’s longest electrically heated pipeline, at a length of 1440km and costing around $3.5 billion. The export pipeline will run from western Uganda to the Indian Ocean port of Tanga in Tanzania, building greater international links for Ugandan oil.
