石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社5月8日吉隆坡报道，马来西亚国家石油公司Petronas上游业务负责人周一向路透社记者表示，该公司正在为该国的液化天然气开辟新的市场，包括提供作为船用燃料。 马来西亚国家石油公司的上游业务首席执行官Mohd Anuar Taib表示称，该公司看到印度、巴基斯坦、孟加拉国和东南亚部分地区巨大的LNG市场需求潜力。 Anuar称，“发展天然气业务的关键是找到拓宽并扩大客户群体的途径”，其补充表示，当前天然气价格的下滑打开了以前高气价难以触及的市场。 由于LNG的供过于求，自2014年以来亚洲LNG现货价格跌幅已经超过70%。根据周五公布的数据显示，6月交易的LNG现货价格为5.7美元/百万英热单位，而2014年的价格在20美元/百万英热单位以上。 马来西亚是列卡塔尔和澳大利亚之后的全球第三大LNG出口国。其液化天然气的首要目的地是日本，韩国和中国。但马国油正试图扩大其客户群体，其通过浮动LNG设施运输的第一批货物上个月已运往印度。 章盈盈 摘译自 路透社 原文如下： Malaysia’s Petronas targets new markets for LNG Malaysian oil company Petronas is looking to tap new markets to sell liquefied natural gas, including as fuel for ships, the head of its upstream operations told Reuters on Monday. State-owned Petroliam Nasional Berhad, known as Petronas, also sees significant growth potential for LNG in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and some parts of Southeast Asia, its upstream CEO Mohd Anuar Taib said. “The key for us in the LNG business is to figure out a way to broaden and expand the customer base,” Anuar said, adding that lower prices have opened up new markets that had previously been unable to afford LNG. Asian spot LNG prices have dropped by more than 70 percent since 2014, with production growing faster than demand. Spot prices for June delivery stood at about $5.70 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) on Friday, compared with $20-plus in 2014. Malaysia is the world’s third-biggest LNG exporter behind Qatar and Australia. The top destinations for its LNG are Japan, South Korea and China, but Petronas is broadening its horizons and the first cargo from its floating LNG facility was shipped to India last month.
