Westmount Energy Ltd.'s shares fell on Monday after it said that drilling of the Sapote-1 well on Guyana's Canje Block encountered noncommercial hydrocarbons, as confirmed by investee company JHI Associates Inc.
西山能源有限公司(Westmount Energy Ltd.)周一股价下跌，此前该公司表示，被投资公司JHI Associates Inc.证实，在圭亚那Canje区块的Sapote-1油井钻探遇到了非商业性碳氢化合物。
Shares at 0910 GMT were down 4.37 pence, or 36%, at 7.63 pence.
格林威治时间0910，股价下跌4.37便士，至7.63便士，跌幅36%。
The AIM-listed energy company said Sapote-1 is the sixth well offshore Guyana that it has participated in since 2019, and that although the drilling portfolio has yielded three oil discoveries, there has been no standalone commercial success to date.
这家在AIM上市的能源公司表示，Sapote-1是该公司自2019年以来参与圭亚那近海开发的第六口油井，尽管钻探组合已经发现了三处石油，但到目前为止还没有独立的商业成功。
It said that one of the block's operators, ExxonMobil subsidiary Esso Exploration & Production Guyana Ltd., has submitted an application for environmental authorization regarding a new 12-well drilling program on the block from 2022 with the Guyanese Environmental Protection Agency.
该公司称，该区块的运营商之一埃克森美孚(ExxonMobil)子公司埃索勘探与生产圭亚那有限公司(Esso Explore&Production圭亚那Ltd.)已向圭亚那环保局提交了一份环境授权申请，要求从2022年起在该区块开展一个新的12口井钻井项目。
JHI partners alongside Esso Exploration & Production Guyana, TotalEnergies E&P Guyana B.V., and Mid-Atlantic Oil & Gas Inc., in the Canje Block.
JHI与埃索勘探与生产圭亚那公司(Esso Explore&Production圭亚那)、TotalEnergy E&P圭亚那B.V.和大西洋中部石油天然气公司(Mid-Atlantic Oil&Gas Inc.)在Canje区块建立了合作伙伴关系。
Westmount holds an indirect interest in the Canje Block as a result of an interest of around 7.2% in JHI's issued share capital.
由于拥有JHI已发行股本约7.2%的权益，Westmount持有Canje区块的间接权益。
