石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社8月14日开罗报道，埃及石油部长塔列克·莫拉周日对路透社记者表示，埃及计划在2017至2018财政年度内进口80船液化天然气（LNG）货物，比去年进口的LNG货物减少38船。 埃及一直在努力加快开发国内最近的天然气发现，以期在2019年之前停止进口LNG。 莫拉说：“我们曾计划在2016-2017财政年度内进口154船LNG货物，但由于国内天然气产量增加，我们只进口了118船LNG货物。” 埃及预计在本财年结束时，埃及的LNG产量每天将增加10亿立方英尺，LNG日产量届时将达到62亿立方英尺。 埃及的天然气生产将从意大利埃尼公司在2015年发现的祖尔大气田中获得巨大的提振。祖尔大气田估计拥有30万亿立方英尺的天然气储量。祖尔大气田预计将在2017年底投产，它将为埃及节省用于进口LNG的数十亿美元的硬通货币。

Egypt To Reduce Imports Of LNG To 80 Cargoes In 2017/18 Year Egypt is planning to import 80 cargoes of liquefied natural gas during the 2017-18 financial year that began in July, Petroleum Minister Tarek El Molla told Reuters on Sunday, down from the 118 cargoes imported last year. Egypt has been trying to speed up the development of recent gas discoveries with a view to halting imports by 2019. “We were planning to import 154 cargoes of LNG in 2016-17 but we only imported 118 cargoes because of the increase in local gas production,” Molla said. Egypt expects to increase its LNG production by 1 billion cubic feet per day by the end of the current financial year to reach 6.2 billion cubic feet per day. Gas production will get a big boost from Italian national oil company Eni’s Zohr field, discovered in 2015 with an estimated 30 trillion cubic feet of gas in place. That field is expected to come into production at the end of 2017 and will save Egypt billions of dollars in hard currency that would otherwise be spent on imports.
