中国石化新闻网讯 据《世界油气新闻》1月7日华盛顿报道,美国石油学会(API)日前对美国内政部不久前提出的一项为期5年的海上石油和天然气租赁计划的新提议表示欢迎,称这项计划将允许更多进入位于美国外大陆架上的能源资源,从而使美国走上增加能源产量、经济增长和创造就业的正确轨道。 API上游主管埃里克·米利托说:“这项新的海上油气租赁计划是朝着为美国能源消费者利益利用我们国家的能源潜力迈出的重要一步。” 米利托说:“安全和负责任勘探和获得我们在北极、大西洋、太平洋和墨西哥湾东部地区的资源的能力是推进美国长期能源安全的一个重要部分。它还将鼓励经济增长、刺激制造业和投资、为美国额外创造数千个就业岗位和加强我们的国家安全。” 今年早些时候进行的一项研究结果显示,天然气和石油行业在2015年为美国经济提供了1030万个工作岗位并为美国经济增加了1.3万亿美元的收入。 李峻 编译自 世界油气新闻 原文如下: API: New offshore energy plan will strengthen U.S. energy security API welcomed the Interior Department’s new proposal for a five-year offshore oil and natural gas leasing plan to allow greater access to energy resources in the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf, putting the U.S. on the right track towards increased energy production, economic growth, and job creation. “This new offshore leasing plan is an important step towards harnessing our nation’s energy potential for the benefit of American energy consumers,” said API Upstream Director Erik Milito. “The ability to safely and responsibly access and explore our resources in the Arctic, Atlantic, Pacific and the Eastern Gulf of Mexico is a critical part of advancing the long-term energy security of the U.S. It will also encourage economic growth, spur manufacturing and investment, create thousands of additional U.S. jobs, and strengthen our national security.” A study earlier this year showed that the natural gas and oil industry supported 10.3 million U.S. jobs and added $1.3 trillion to the nation’s economy in 2015.
