古晋，11 月 23 日：1974 年石油开发法案 (PDA74) 并未将其经营或曾经经营的区域的土地所有权授予国家石油有限公司 (Petronas)。
砂拉越法律顾问拿督斯里JC Fong解释说，PDA74仅授予PETRONAS勘探、开采和拥有石油的权利，而没有将土地本身归属于该公司。
“PDA74 从未将土地归属于 PETRONAS。根据《砂拉越土地法》，大陆架上的土地被定义为（砂）国有土地。”
如果石油和天然气枯竭，则有义务将土地归还给砂拉越，为(砂)国家提供决定其未来用途的机会。
“然后我们就可以决定如何处理它。在这种情况下，我们希望利用废弃或枯竭的油井或油田来开发碳储存场所。”
砂拉越正在积极探索将其 1,665 口废弃油井开发为碳储存中心的潜力，这一举措符合砂拉越对绿色经济的承诺。
能源与环境可持续发展部副部长拿督Hazland Abang Hipni博士表示，这些废弃油井有能力储存至少90亿吨碳。
这个数字超过了砂拉越森林的碳储存能力，估计在 7500 亿吨至 10 亿吨之间。
他进一步解释说，上述容量不包括沿海含水层（渗透岩层）所带来的潜力，该含水层也可以作为碳储存介质。
这项碳储存计划预计将抵消该地区的碳排放，同时减少总计60万吨的碳排放，并为砂拉越带来额外收入。
Petroleum Development Act only vests in Petronas right to mine

KUCHING, Nov 23: The Petroleum Development Act 1974 (PDA74) does not vest land ownership to National Petroleum Limited (PETRONAS) for the areas it operates or used to operate on.
Sarawak Legal Counsel Dato Sri JC Fong explained that PDA74 only grants PETRONAS the rights to explore, exploit, and own petroleum, without vesting the land itself in the company.
“PDA74 never vests the land in PETRONAS. The land in the continental shelf is defined as State land under the Sarawak Land Code,” Fong told DayakDaily.
In the event of oil and gas depletion, the obligation arises to return the land to Sarawak, providing an opportunity for the State to determine its future use.
“Then we can decide what to do with it. In this case, we want to develop the sites for carbon storage, by using the abandoned or depleted oil wells or oil fields,” said Fong
Sarawak is actively exploring the potential development of its 1,665 used oil wells as a carbon storage center, an initiative aligning with the Sarawak’s commitment to a green economy.
Deputy Minister of Energy and Environmental Sustainability Datuk Dr Hazland Abang Hipni said these used oil wells have the capacity to store at least nine billion tonnes of carbon.
This figure surpasses the carbon storage capacity of Sarawak’s forests, estimated to be between 750,000 million and one billion tonnes.
He further explained that the mentioned capacity does not include the potential posed by coastal aquifer (permeable rock layer), which can also serve as a carbon storage medium.
This carbon storage initiative is expected to offset carbon emissions in the region, while simultaneously reduce a total of 600,000 tonnes of carbon emissions, apart from raking in additional income for Sarawak. — DayakDaily
