据道琼斯3月22日消息,乌干达财政部长Matia Kasaija表示,全球大宗商品价格居高不下,为乌干达提供了快速开发其23万桶/天石油项目的机会。汽油价格已突破每加仑4美元的纪录高位,这为乌干达等国提供了提升其未开发石油资产的机会。据估计,乌干达的原油储量为65亿桶。Kasaija表示:“我们将加快项目活动的实施,以确保石油生产及时开始,从而带来更多美元,增加我们的储备,这样乌干达银行就有足够的能力来对抗通胀。”包括道达尔能源在内的公司已在乌干达投资数十亿美元,希望到2025年开始在那里生产石油。

High Oil Prices Boost Uganda's Oil-Development Project
The prevailing high global commodity prices present opportunities for Uganda to fast-track the development of its 230,000 barrel-a-day oil project, Finance Minister Matia Kasaija says. Gasoline prices have reached records above $4 a gallon,which provides a chance for countries such as Uganda to advance its undeveloped oil assets, estimated at 6.5 billion barrels of crude. "We will expedite the implementation of project activities to ensure timely start of oil production to bring in more dollars to boost our reserves so that bank of Uganda has enough arsenal to fight inflation" Kasaija says. Companies including TotalEnergies have invested billions of dollars in Uganda, where they hope to start oil production by 2025.
