中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社3月6日休斯敦报道,雪佛龙公司周二表示,该公司预计全球液化天然气(LNG)市场在2025年前将面临供应短缺,雪佛龙公司的此番表白回应了最大的LNG贸易商荷兰皇家壳牌公司上周所作的评论。 由于诸如中国那样的国家寻求控制环境污染,比煤炭和石油燃烧更清洁的天然气需求出现了猛增。 澳大利亚高更和惠特斯通LNG项目的所有者雪佛龙公司说,该公司预计全球LNG年需求量在2035年前将达到近6亿吨,而LNG供应量届时可能只有这个数字的一半。 雪佛龙公司负责下游的执行副总裁皮埃尔·布列柏在公司分析日上说,中国对LNG需求正在显著增加,他们制订了一个在加热工业应用中去除煤炭使用LNG的非常积极的计划。 由于这个世界第2大经济体在农历新年到来前增加供应,中国1月份的LNG进口量达到了创历史新高的水平。 李峻 编译自 路透社 原文如下: Chevron Expects LNG Supply Shortage By 2025 Chevron Corp said on Tuesday it expected supply shortage in the global liquefied natural gas (LNG) market by around 2025, echoing comments made last month by top LNG trader Royal Dutch Shell. Demand for natural gas, which burns cleaner than coal and oil, has surged as countries such as China look to curb environmental pollution. Chevron, owner of the giant Gorgon and Wheatstone LNG projects in Australia, said it expects global demand to be nearly 600 million metric tonne per annum (mmtpa) by 2035, while supply could be just about half of that. “China’s demand is increasing significantly – they’ve had a very active program to move off of coal in heating industrial applications, and that’s pulled on LNG,” Pierre Breber, EVP -downstream at Chevron, said during the company’s analyst day. China imported record levels of LNG in January, as the world’s second-largest economy shored up supplies ahead of the Lunar New Year celebrations.
