Kina-trusler stopper Vietnam-efterforskning

Efter påståede "trusler" fra Kina har Vietnam beordret det spanske olieselskab Repsol til at standse sin efterforsknings-aktivitet i Block 136-03, et udforskningsområde nær Vanguard Bank i Det Sydkinesiske Hav på den vietnamesiske kontinentalsokkel omkring 200 sømil sydøst for Vung Tao.

Ifølge diplomatiske kilder har Kina truet med at angribe vietnamesiske installationer på Spratly-øerne, hvis Repsol ikke stoppede sit arbejde. Vietnam har siden starten af 1980'erne opretholdt

bemandede poster på banken, som skal virke afskrækkende for Kinas territoriale ambitioner.

Vietnam hævder de omliggende farvande er en del af landets økonomiske zone. Vanguard ligger dog også inden for et område, som Kina gør krav på. Den Faste Voldgiftsdomstol i Haag afviste Kinas krav sidste år og fandt, at landet ikke havde noget grundlag for kravet med henvisning til De Forenede Nationers havretskonvention (UNCLOS). Beijing har stort set ignoreret afgørelsen.

Udforskninglicensen i Vanguard er i fællesskab ejet af det statskontrolleret PetroVietnam, det UAE-baserede Mubadala Development og operatøren Repsol. Odfjell er Repsols boreentreprenør og udfører arbejdet med det sjettegenerations ultradeepwater boreskib Deepsea Metro I.

Rapporter hævder, at Repsol muligvis har afdækket en større gasreserve ved Vanguard kort før selskabet blev bedt om at standse arbejdet.
