据哈特能源6月10日消息，美国能源经济与金融分析研究所(IEEFA)编制的IHS Markit数据显示，埃克森美孚新墨西哥州特拉华盆地平均液体产量在前12个月出现下滑。
根据一份着眼于2018-2019年数据的新报告，埃克森美孚在美国页岩气田部分地区的油井产量下降，因为该公司增加了总体支出和产量。
2017年，埃克森美孚以66亿美元收购了新墨西哥的土地，使其在横跨德克萨斯州西部和新墨西哥的二叠纪盆地的持股增加了一倍。二叠纪盆地的新墨西哥区块是埃克森美孚的首要任务之一，其目标是到2025年将页岩产量提高到70万桶/天。
根据IEEFA编制的IHS Markit数据，2019年，埃克森美孚在新墨西哥州特拉华盆地的平均液体产量从2018年的平均635桶/天下降至521桶/天。
数据显示，在大型上市公司中，该公司单井产量从第一名降至第六名，落后于西方石油公司、EOG资源公司和其他公司。
2020年的完整数据尚不可用，由于疫情大流行，该盆地的许多油井都已关闭，但对油井生产高峰月份的初步数据发现“表明该公司在特拉华州的油井继续落后”。
埃克森美孚发言人Julie King表示:“我们将继续执行我们的战略，最大限度地提高包括新墨西哥业务在内的二叠纪盆地的产量。”
在今年3月向投资者发表的报告中，埃克森美孚称，在2018年至2020年期间，每口井的收益稳步增长，主要得益于其“新墨西哥核心开发项目”。
IEEFA副总裁Neil Chapman告诉投资者，该公司在二叠纪盆地的持股“每年都达到或超过我们的预期”，已经持续了六年。
生产商通常会先开采他们最大的油田。
咨询公司IHS Markit的分析师Raoul LeBlanc表示，2018年，埃克森美孚专注于特拉华盆地的最佳区块，那里有一层产油区。从那以后，也开始从其他区层生产。
根据IEEFA周三公布的数据，埃克森美孚单井产量下降的同时，该盆地的平均产量提高了约5%。过去10年，美国二叠纪盆地的页岩油产量大幅增长，但随着石油公司关注利润而非产量，产量增长放缓。
特拉华盆地的平均单井产量从上一年的454桶/天上升到2019年的478桶/天。IEEFA表示，2020年的初步结果显示，平均产量达到501桶/天。

Exxon Mobil’s Shale Output per Well in Permian Basin Slips
Exxon Mobil’s average liquids output over a well's first 12 months fell in its Delaware Basin holdings in New Mexico, according to IHS Markit data compiled by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis.
Exxon Mobil Corp.’s oil wells in part of a marquee U.S. shale field generated fewer barrels per well as it ramped up overall spending and production, according to a new report that looks at data from 2018-19.
A $6.6 billion acquisition in 2017 of New Mexico acres doubled Exxon Mobil holdings in the Permian Basin that spans west Texas and New Mexico. The Permian’s New Mexico portion is among Exxon Mobil’s priorities with a goal to boost shale output to 700,000 bbl/d by 2025.
Exxon’s average liquids output over a well's first 12 months fell to 521 bbl/d in 2019 in its Delaware Basin holdings in New Mexico, down from an average of 635 bbl/d in 2018, according to IHS Markit data compiled by the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA).
It dropped to 6th from first on a per-well production basis among a group of large, publicly-traded producers, the data showed, behind Occidental Petroleum Corp., EOG Resources Inc. and others.
Full data for 2020 is not yet available and many wells across the basin were shut-in due to the pandemic, but initial findings of data that looks at the peak month of a well’s production “suggest that the company’s Delaware wells have continued to fall behind,” said Clark Williams-Derry, an IEEFA analyst.
“We continue to execute on our strategy to maximize production in the Permian, which includes our New Mexico operations,” said Exxon Mobil spokesperson Julie King.
In a March presentation to investors, Exxon Mobil reported steady per-well gains between 2018 and 2020, citing its “core New Mexico development.”
The company’s Permian Basin holdings have “met or exceeded our volumes projections each year” for six years, Senior Vice President Neil Chapman told investors.
Producers commonly drill their greatest prospects first.
In 2018, Exxon Mobil was focused on the best slice in the Delaware Basin, which has a layer cake of oil-producing zones, said Raoul LeBlanc, analyst with consultants IHS Markit. It since has started to produce from other layers as well.
Exxon Mobil’s declining output per well came as the basin’s average improved about 5%, according to data released on Wednesday by IEEFA. U.S. shale production in the Permian rose sharply last decade but has slowed as oil companies focus on profit over output.
The Delaware Basin’s per well average overall rose to 478 bbl/d in 2019 from 454 bbl/d the year before. Initial results for 2020 show the average reaching 501 bbl/d, IEEFA said.
