阿根廷请求国际海洋法法庭叫停福克兰群岛以北“海狮”石油项目

据联合国新闻等媒体10月13日至14日报道,阿根廷已请求位于德国汉堡的国际海洋法法庭叫停福克兰群岛(马尔维纳斯群岛)以北的“海狮”(Sea Lion)海上石油项目,称英国批准该项目不合法。阿根廷外长巴勃罗·基尔诺就此表明立场。“海狮”油田位于群岛以北约130英里处,储量约17亿桶,由英国Rockhopper公司与以色列Navitas公司开发,预计2028年投产。英国大臣称阿方此举为经济胁迫,表示将予以抵制。
Argentina Asks Law of the Sea Tribunal to Halt Sea Lion Oil Project North of Falklands
UN News and other outlets reported on October 13-14 that Argentina has asked the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea in Hamburg to halt the Sea Lion offshore oil project north of the Falkland Islands (Malvinas), arguing that the United Kingdom authorised it illegally. Argentine Foreign Minister Pablo Quirno set out his government's position. The Sea Lion field lies about 130 miles north of the islands, holds an estimated 1.7 billion barrels, and is being developed by the UK's Rockhopper and Israel's Navitas, with production expected in 2028. UK ministers called Argentina's move economic coercion and said they would resist it.
