美国第二波LNG开发项目获得动力

中国石化新闻网讯 据烃加工在线伦敦/休斯敦/新加坡9月17日消息,随着全球液化天然气(LNG)市场基本面吃紧,美国LNG再次获得动力。根据已经达成的具有约束力的销售和采购协议(SPAs),自2018年初以来,美国第二波LNG开发项目每年将向市场投放1000万吨的LNG。
周一在巴塞罗那举行的Gastech会议上,全球自然资源咨询公司伍德麦肯兹公司的美国天然气研究主管克里斯蒂.克莱默表示:“SPAs的增加是值得注意的。自第一波美国LNG项目和2017年末期间,美国仅开发了200万吨/年的LNG供应能力。”
8月底,美国联邦能源监管委员会(FERC)宣布了12个LNG项目的监管时间表
克莱默补充称:“这意味着,除了通过监管程序的6个开发项目之外,还有11个项目将在2019年年中至年末之前收到来自FERC的最终批准。”
“与此同时,基本面走强意味着伍德麦肯兹认为,2025年全球LNG供需缺口将从4500万吨/年扩大至6500万吨/年。”
这加大了美国LNG项目的压力,要求它们敲定商业安排,因为它们希望在未来12-18个月内作出最终投资决定。

US LNG’s second wave gains momentum As global liquefied natural gas (LNG) market fundamentals tighten, US LNG has gained momentum again. Since early 2018, a second wave of projects set to bring more 10 million tonnes per annum (mmtpa) to the market under binding sales and purchase agreements (SPAs) have reached the starting blocks.
Speaking at the Gastech conference in Barcelona today, Kristy Kramer, director, Americas gas research, at global natural resources consultancy Wood Mackenzie, said: “The increase is in SPAs is remarkable. In the period since the first wave of US LNG projects and late 2017, just 2 mmpta had been locked in.”
At the end of August, the US Federal Energy Regulation Commission (FERC) announced regulatory timelines for 12 LNG projects.
Ms Kramer added: “This means that as well as the six developments that are through the regulatory process, 11 more should receive their final order from FERC by mid-to-late 2019.
“At the same time, strengthening fundamentals mean Wood Mackenzie believes the global LNG supply-demand gap in 2025 will increase from 45 mmpta to 65 mmpta.”
This increases the pressure on US LNG projects to finalise commercial arrangements as they look to take FID in the next 12-18 months.
