石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社10月30日圣地亚哥报道，智利总统塞巴斯蒂安皮内拉周二表示，阿根廷已经开始向智利出口天然气，因为这两个南美邻国正在寻求日益整合其能源供应和电网。 这种非常规天然气来自阿根廷内乌肯盆地的富含油气和天然气的瓦卡姆尔塔页岩油田，然后从安第斯山脉运往智利南部的Biobio省。 “我们正在与（阿根廷）总统毛里西奥·马克里积极合作，整合我们的能源供应，”皮内拉在一次演讲中说。 出口标志着该地区能源贸易的转折点。阿根廷位于世界第二大页岩气储量之上，曾经是智利天然气的主要供应国，但在其自身供应量不足的情况下，通过切断货运引发了2000年代中期的外交危机。 此举使智利成为一家全球矿业巨头，几乎没有自己的碳氢化合物，争先恐后地寻找新的供应来源。这一举措也有助于促进智利风能和太阳能等替代能源的转变。 皮内拉说，这两个国家的能源需求差异很大，但往往是互补的，根据一年中的时间和情况，可以在共同的边境出口或进口燃料和电力。 “这将允许我们互相支持，而不必花费过多的钱来做到这一点，”他说。 李方征 编译自 路透社 原文如下： Argentina restarts natural gas exports to Chile Argentina has begun exporting natural gas to Chile after a 12 year interlude, Chilean President Sebastian Pinera said on Tuesday, as the two South American neighbors seek to increasingly integrate their energy supply and electricity grids. The unconventional gas is being piped from Argentina’s oil- and gas-rich Vaca Muerta shale field in the Neuquen basin, then sent over the Andes mountain range to Chile’s southern province of Biobio. “We are working enthusiastically with (Argentine) President Mauricio Macri to integrate our energy supply,” Pinera said in a speech. The exports mark a turning point in energy trade in the region. Argentina, which sits atop the world’s No. 2 shale gas reserves, was once a major supplier of natural gas to Chile, but triggered a diplomatic crisis in the mid-2000s by cutting off shipments when its own supplies ran low. The move sent Chile, a global mining powerhouse that has few hydrocarbons of its own, scrambling to find new sources of supply. The spat also helped foster a move towards alternative energy sources like wind and solar in Chile. Pinera said the two countries had very different, but often complementary, energy needs, and that depending on the time of year and circumstance, could either export or import fuel and electricity across their shared border. “This will permit us to back one another up without having to spend excess money to do so,” he said.
