據(jù)道瓊斯4月22日消息，荷蘭皇家殼牌集團周二表示，該公司推遲了北海的Jackdaw天然氣田開發(fā)項目，因為能源公司們正應(yīng)對油價暴跌而大幅削減支出。

分析師估計，該項目的價值約為10億美元，這是殼牌集團在該地區(qū)推遲的第二個項目。據(jù)殼牌及其項目合作伙伴Siccar Point稱，今年3月，關(guān)于是否繼續(xù)開發(fā)設(shè)得蘭群島西北部Cambo油田的決定被推遲到明年。Siccar Point是一家由黑石集團支持的油氣生產(chǎn)商。

推遲上述項目是為了應(yīng)對能源價格暴跌，同時公司削減預(yù)算，一些項目也不再具有經(jīng)濟效益。

Shell Delays $1 Billion North Sea Development

Royal Dutch Shell PLC has postponed its Jackdaw natural-gas field development in the North Sea, the company said Tuesday, as energy companies slash spending in response to plummeting prices.

The project, which analysts estimate to be valued around $1 billion, is the second that Shell has delayed in the region. In March, a decision on whether to proceed with developing the Cambo field northwest of the Shetland Islands was postponed until next year, according to Shell and its partner on the project, Siccar Point, an oil-and-gas producer backed by Blackstone Group Inc.

The delays are in response to plummeting energy prices as budgets are cut and some projects' economics no longer stack up.
