对国内现行SEC储量评估方式的思考与建议

Current SEC reserve evaluation methods in China

开展SEC储量评估是《美国联邦法规》的要求。2000年开始,中国石油、中国石化、中国海油先后在美国纽约证券交易所上市,此后各公司每年按照SEC要求披露油气作业方面的内容。三家石油公司于上市伊始便分别委托外国储量评估公司进行储量评估。这种做法存有一定的信息安全风险,且不利于国内石油公司油气储量自身评估人才的培养,同时会造成国内石油公司缺乏与美国SEC"面对面"的沟通能力,易丧失话语权。因此,可考虑从国家和石油公司两个层面建立SEC储量评估机构和机制,建立独立于生产与经营部门的储量评估与监管(内控)体系,培养SEC储量评估专家人才,完善储量评估技术体系,强化储量数据管理,适当开展与国外储量评估公司的合作,分阶段逐步实现SEC储量独立评估。

Reserve evaluation is required by the SEC in the Code of Federal Regulations. Since listing on the New York Stock Exchange in 2000, Petro China, Sinopec and CNOOC have annually disclosed the amount of oil and gas in their areas of operation in compliance with SEC regulations. Once listed, the three oil companies commissioned independent foreign reserve evaluation companies. This practice opened the companies to a certain level of information security risk, wasn't conducive to cultivating in-house reserve evaluation talent, and could also result in a lack of skill in person-to-person communication with the SEC and in easily losing the right to speak before the SEC. Therefore, establishing SEC reserve estimation institutions and mechanisms was considered at two levels, state and company, in particular a reserve evaluation and supervision(internal control) system which is independent of the production and operations functions, and where experts in SEC reserve evaluation are trained, reserve evaluation techniques are improved, reserve-data management is strengthened, and adequate cooperation is developed with foreign reserve evaluation companies, to achieve a phased-in independent SEC reserve estimation capability.
