据能源世界网5月19日伦敦报道，荷兰皇家壳牌公司（royaldutchshell）首席执行官本•范•贝尔登（benvanbeurden）周二表示，该公司正与尼日利亚政府就出售其在陆上油田的股份进行谈判。
壳牌是这个西非国家陆上油气合资企业SPDC的运营商。多年来，由于管道盗窃和破坏以及运营问题，该公司一直在尼日尔三角洲遭遇石油泄漏。石油泄漏导致了昂贵的修复操作和备受关注的诉讼。
壳牌首席执行官本•范•贝尔登在公司年度股东大会上表示，壳牌不能再面临盗窃和蓄意破坏的风险。我们不能解决尼日尔三角洲的社区问题，这也许是尼日利亚政府要解决的。我们可以尽力而为，但在某个时刻，我们还必须得出结论，这是一种不再符合我们风险偏好的风险敞口。我们已经得出了这个结论，现在我们正与尼日利亚政府就未来的方向进行谈判。
尼日利亚石油部长Timipre Sylva证实，政府正与壳牌就如何剥离陆上股权进行谈判。
Sylva在一份声明中表示，双方正在考虑将这些股权转让给SPDC或另一家当地公司，或出售给一家外国公司。
壳牌在尼日利亚的陆上合资企业SPDC在过去十年中出售了约50%的石油资产。壳牌在SPDC的股权使其在2020年每天获得15.6万桶油当量，其中6.6万桶是石油。

Shell in talks with Nigeria to divest onshore oil stakes
Royal Dutch Shell is in talks with the Nigerian government to sell the Anglo-Dutch company's stake in onshore oilfields, CEO Ben van Beurden said on Tuesday.
Shell, the operator of the West African country's onshore oil and gas joint venture SPDC, has struggled for years with spills in the Niger Delta as a result of pipeline theft and sabotage as well as operational issues. The spills have led to costly repair operations and high-profile lawsuits.
Speaking at the company's annual general meeting, CEO Ben van Beurden said that Shell can no longer be exposed to the risk of theft and sabotage.
"We cannot solve community problems in the Niger Delta, that's for the Nigerian government perhaps to solve. We can do our best, but at some point in time, we also have to conclude that this is an exposure that doesn't fit with our risk appetite anymore," van Beurden said.
"We've drawn that conclusion, and we're now talking to the Nigerian government on the way forward."
Nigerian Oil Minister Timipre Sylva confirmed the government was in talks with Shell on how to divesting its onshore stakes.
The sides are considering transferring the stakes to SPDC or to another local company or selling it to a foreign company, Sylva said in a statement.
Shell's Nigerian onshore joint venture SPDC has sold about 50% of its oil assets over the past decade. Shell's stake in SPDC gave it 156,000 barrels per day of oil equivalent in 2020, of which 66,000 barrels were oil.
