石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社7月5日阿布贾报道，尼日利亚石油部5日在一份声明中说，尼日利亚政府内阁日前批准了一项国家天然气政策，这项国家天然气政策旨在通过增加天然气勘探和设施来减少该国对原油的依赖。 这项政策在上周举行的内阁会议上获得通过，但周三（5日）才公布于众。 尼日利亚数十年来一直依赖其充足的石油供应来资助本国的经济。但是，尽管拥有大量的原油，尼日利亚的大部分的原油被运往国外精炼，而尼日利亚不得不以高昂的代价进口精炼燃料。 尼日利亚拥有世界第9大天然气储量（187万亿立方英尺），使用天然气的举措可以减少进口精炼石油产品所需要的外汇支出。 石油部说，这100页的国家天然气政策寻求建立一个单一的独立石油监管机构。它还打算把上游从中游业务中分开以及把天然气基础设施所有权和业务从天然气交易中分开。这项政策还将把尼日利亚天然气公司划分成运输公司和天然气营销公司以及在过渡期以后引入“市场导向的批发天然气定价”。 李峻 编译自 路透社 原文如下： Nigeria’s cabinet approves national gas policy Nigeria’s cabinet has approved a national gas policy that aims to reduce the country’s dependence on crude oil by increasing gas exploration and facilities, the oil ministry said in a statement. The policy was passed in last week’s cabinet session but only made public on Wednesday. Nigeria has for decades relied on its ample supplies of oil to power its economy. But despite having a wealth of crude, the vast majority was sent overseas for refining, and the country instead has had to import refined fuels at great expense. Nigeria has the world’s ninth largest proven gas reserves, at 187 Tcf. A move to using gas could reduce the drain on foreign exchange that importing refined oil products requires. The 100-page National Gas Policy seeks to set up a single independent petroleum regulator. It also aims to separate upstream from midstream operations and to separate gas infrastructure ownership and operations from gas trading, the oil ministry said. The policy will also divide the Nigeria Gas Company into separate transport and gas marketing companies and introduce “market-led wholesale gas pricing” after a transitional period.
