阿根廷政府向国际海洋法庭提起法律诉讼,试图阻止英国在福克兰群岛以北地区授权进行的石油和天然气勘探活动。1此举针对的是由英国石油公司Rockhopper Exploration和以色列公司Navitas Petroleum合作开发的海狮油田项目。1该油田距离福克兰群岛约130英里(209公里),估计蕴藏石油储量1.7亿桶,预计于2028年投产。1
英国外交大臣埃德·米利班德表示,阿根廷试图恐吓从事合法商业活动的企业和个人是不可接受的。1英国方面表示将坚决反对阿根廷的诉讼请求。1一旦该油田投产,预计将为约3500名福克兰岛民带来巨额经济收益。1此前,阿根廷总统米莱曾威胁对开采福克兰群岛附近石油的公司实施经济制裁。1
Argentina has filed a legal claim with the International Court of the Law of the Sea seeking to halt oil and gas exploration authorized by the United Kingdom in waters north of the Falkland Islands 1. The action represents a direct challenge to the Sea Lion oil field project, a joint venture between British company Rockhopper Exploration and Israeli firm Navitas Petroleum 1.
The Sea Lion field, located approximately 130 miles (209 kilometers) from the Falkland Islands, is estimated to contain 1.7 billion barrels of oil reserves 1. The project is expected to begin production in 2028 and could generate substantial revenue for the archipelago's approximately 3,500 inhabitants 1. Argentine President Javier Milei has previously threatened to impose economic sanctions against companies involved in extracting oil near the Falkland Islands 1.
The United Kingdom has signaled its firm opposition to Argentina's legal action. British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband stated that attempts to intimidate companies and individuals engaged in legitimate commercial activity are unacceptable 1, and the UK government has pledged to take measures to protect businesses operating lawfully in the region 1.
