El gobierno de Aruba conserva todav\u00eda la esperanza de hallar gas y petr\u00f3leo en las costas de la isla. La empresa espa\u00f1ola REPSOL ha sido una de las pocas en avivar esas esperanzas, bajo la l\u00f3gica de que si en el lado venezolano existen recursos energ\u00e9ticos, en las aguas pr\u00f3ximas a Aruba tambi\u00e9n han de existir.<\/p>\n

Pero hasta los momentos no han sido rentable los esfuerzos exploratorios de la petrolera espa\u00f1ola, en funci\u00f3n a las reservas que se cree pudieran haber en las costas de Aruba.<\/p>\n

Aunque el tema augura un posible conflicto lim\u00edtrofe con Venezuela, los compromisos que en Aruba existir\u00edan entre el gobierno y REPSOL, dadas algunas inversiones econ\u00f3micas que todav\u00eda Oranjestad no ha podido retribuir, hacen que el gobierno de la primera ministra Evelyn Wever-Croes, d\u00e9 muestras desesperadas en querer devolver los favores.<\/p>\n

REPSOL detiene las actividades de exploraci\u00f3n<\/strong><\/h3>\n

La empresa gubernamental Compania Arubano di Petroleo (CAP) ha informado al Gobierno de Aruba que REPSOL ha detenido la exploraci\u00f3n de gas y petr\u00f3leo en las aguas circundantes de Aruba.<\/p>\n

REPSOL no proceder\u00e1 con la fase 4 del acuerdo firmado con Petroleum Company of Aruba.<\/p>\n

El acuerdo firmado en diciembre de 2012 fue terminado el 30 de noviembre de 2019, luego de 7 a\u00f1os de exploraciones.<\/p>\n

Se tom\u00f3 la decisi\u00f3n de detener las exploraciones despu\u00e9s de perforaciones de prueba insatisfactorias de \u00abBon Bini-1X\u00bb ubicadas al norte de Aruba, que resultaron en un \u00abagujero seco\u00bb.<\/p>\n

Estos resultados se correlacionaron con los datos s\u00edsmicos obtenidos en 2014 – 2015.<\/p>\n

La correlaci\u00f3n hizo posible reevaluar las antiguas perspectivas con la esperanza de encontrar nuevas perspectivas en las aguas que rodean Aruba. Despu\u00e9s de la reevaluaci\u00f3n por parte de REPSOL y el hecho de que REPSOL no pudo encontrar otro socio para la costosa exploraci\u00f3n, REPSOL desisti\u00f3.<\/p>\n

El Gobierno de Aruba agradeci\u00f3 a Petroleum Company of Aruba, REPSOL y todas las partes interesadas, organizaciones e instituciones por sus esfuerzos durante los \u00faltimos 7 a\u00f1os. El Gobierno tambi\u00e9n agradece al Ministro de Asuntos Econ\u00f3micos de los Pa\u00edses Bajos por su ayuda.<\/p>\n

El Gobierno est\u00e1 analizando la decisi\u00f3n de REPSOL y solicita una segunda opini\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

La Compania Arubano di Petroleo (CAP) tiene un papel crucial en este asesoramiento.<\/p>\n

English edition<\/strong><\/p>\n

The island government insists on wanting to find gas and oil off the coast of Aruba despite the disappointing results of REPSOL’s explorations<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Aruban government still hopes to find gas and oil off the coast of the island. The Spanish company REPSOL has been one of the few to fuel those hopes, under the logic that if there are energy resources on the Venezuelan side, they must also exist in the waters near Aruba.<\/p>\n

But until now, the exploratory efforts of the Spanish oil company have not been profitable, based on the reserves that are believed to exist on the coast of Aruba.<\/p>\n

Although the issue augurs a possible border conflict with Venezuela, the commitments that would exist in Aruba between the government and REPSOL, given some economic investments that Oranjestad has not yet been able to repay, make the government of Prime Minister Evelyn Wever-Croes show signs desperate to want to return the favors.<\/p>\n

REPSOL stops exploration activities<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The government-owned company Compania Arubano di Petroleo (CAP) has informed the Government of Aruba that REPSOL has stopped oil and gas exploration in the waters surrounding Aruba.<\/p>\n

REPSOL will not proceed with phase 4 of the agreement signed with the Petroleum Company of Aruba.<\/p>\n

The agreement signed in December 2012 was completed on November 30, 2019, after 7 years of exploration.<\/p>\n

The decision to stop exploration was made after unsuccessful test drilling of \u00abBon Bini-1X\u00bb located north of Aruba, which resulted in a \u00abdry hole\u00bb.<\/p>\n

These results were correlated with seismic data obtained in 2014 – 2015.<\/p>\n

The correlation made it possible to reassess old perspectives in the hope of finding new perspectives in the waters surrounding Aruba. After REPSOL’s re-evaluation and the fact that REPSOL was unable to find another partner for the expensive exploration, REPSOL withdrew.<\/p>\n

The Government of Aruba thanked the Petroleum Company of Aruba, REPSOL and all the stakeholders, organizations and institutions for their efforts during the last 7 years. The Government also thanks the Minister for Economic Affairs of the Netherlands for his help.<\/p>\n

The Government is analyzing REPSOL’s decision and is requesting a second opinion.<\/p>\n

The Compania Arubano di Petroleo (CAP) has a crucial role in this advice.<\/p>\n
