石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯伦敦10月30日消息称，英国石油公司首席财务官Brian Gilvary周二表示，英国石油公司及其合作伙伴Kosmos能源公司有望在2018年底前对西非Tortue液化天然气项目做出最终投资决定。 基于毛里塔尼亚/塞内加尔海上边界地区的约15万亿立方英尺（4250亿立方米）的天然气，该项目预计将于2022年生产出第一批天然气。 近年来，由于液化天然气价格相对较低以及大量新项目的出现，全球液化天然气供应行业的新FID寥寥无几，但随着液化天然气市场可能会从2021年左右开始紧缩，预计会有很多投资决策出台。 Gilvary在公司第三季度业绩发布后与分析师召开的电话会议上表示：“该项目于2018年4月进入燃料供应阶段，我们仍然瞄准2018年底的FID和2022年的第一批天然气。” 今年2月，在毛里塔尼亚和塞内加尔政府签署了关于该项目的政府间协议之后，英国石油公司和总部位于美国的Kosmos向Tortue液化天然气项目的FID又迈进了一步。 Gilvary表示，在第一阶段，Tortue液化天然气的产能将达到250万吨/年，之后将达到1000万吨/年的最高产量。 Tortue液化天然气项目将增加西非现有的液化天然气出口设施，包括6列尼日利亚液化天然气列车、安哥拉液化天然气列车和赤道几内亚液化天然气列车。 然而，位于赤道几内亚附近的由Ophir能源公司运营的Fortuna液化天然气项目—新型浮式液化天然气工厂，由于这家总部设在英国的运营商在年末公司执照到期前满足FID的时间所剩不多，该计划陷入停滞状态。 但在壳牌及其合作伙伴本月早些时候完成装运两列年产量为1400万吨的加拿大液化天然气列车项目的最终投资决定后，全球预计会有更多的FID。 到2019年，FID可能包括在卡塔尔、俄罗斯Novatek运营的北极LNG 2项目、阿纳达科运营的莫桑比克液化天然气项目以及美国数家工厂新增4列新型大型液化天然气列车。 壳牌综合天然气公司负责人Maarten Wetselaar上个月表示，全球液化天然气市场将在明年夏天可能出现疲软，而后从2021年末开始紧缩。 壳牌在2月份发布的最新液化天然气展望报告中表示，由于液化天然气行业投资自2014年油价暴跌以来大幅下降，到2020年代中期，全球面临液化天然气供应短缺的风险。 陈菲 摘译自 普氏能源资讯 原文如下： BP on track to take FID on West African Tortue LNG project by year-end: CFO Gilvary BP and its partner Kosmos Energy are on track to take the final investment decision for the West African Tortue LNG project by the end of 2018, BP CFO Brian Gilvary said Tuesday. The project — based on an estimated 15 Tcf (425 Bcm) of gas in an area straddling the Mauritania/Senegal maritime border — is expected to produce its first gas in 2022. New FIDs in the global LNG supply industry have been few and far between in recent years due to relatively low LNG prices and the slew of new projects starting up, but more investment decisions are expected as the LNG market looks likely to tighten from around 2021. “The project entered the FEED [phase] in April 2018, and we are still targeting FID at the end of 2018 and first gas in 2022,” Gilvary said during a conference call with analysts after the release of the company’s third-quarter results. In February, BP and US-based Kosmos moved a step closer to FID on Tortue LNG after the governments of Mauritania and Senegal signed an intergovernmental deal on the development. Gilvary said that in the first phase, Tortue LNG would have a capacity of 2.5 million mt/year before moving to peak production of 10 million mt/year. Tortue LNG would add to the existing LNG export facilities in West Africa that include the six-train Nigeria LNG, Angola LNG and Equatorial Guinea LNG. A new floating LNG plant off Equatorial Guinea — the Ophir Energy-operated Fortuna LNG project — has, however, stalled with time running out for the UK-based operator to reach FID before the company’s license expires at the end of the year. But more FIDs are expected globally after Shell and its partners earlier this month took FID on the two-train, 14 million mt/year LNG Canada project. FIDs in 2019 could include the addition of four new mega LNG trains in Qatar, the Novatek-operated Arctic LNG 2 in Russia, the Anadarko-operated Mozambique LNG project and a handful of plants in the US. Shell’s head of integrated gas Maarten Wetselaar said last month that the global LNG market would tighten from late 2021 after a possible “soft” period from next summer. In its latest LNG outlook published in February, Shell said the world risked an LNG supply crunch by the mid-2020s due to the collapse in LNG-sector investment since the 2014 oil-price slump.
