石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据世界天然气网站11月20日报道，马来西亚液化天然气运输巨头MISC周一表示，其液化天然气业务今年第三季度的收入下降了14.9％。 截至9月30日的季度，MISC的27个运营商和两个FSU的液化天然气船队赢得5.959亿林吉特（1.444亿美元），而2017年为7.0920亿林吉特。 MISC归因于下降主要是由于“2017年10月LNG运输公司续签合同后收入日数下降和租船费率下降”。 液化天然气运营利润为2.494亿林吉特，同比下降38.1％。 MISC在其季度财务报告中表示，由于中国进口量高于预期，今年开工率低迷，液化天然气现货价格在第三季度达到顶峰。 “集团的液化天然气运输部门将利用蓬勃的市场条件锁定其目前在现货市场中的两到三艘船的更高租船费率，”MISC说。 尽管如此，大型和核心液化天然气船队的营业收入继续由长期包机组合承保，它说。 李方征 编译自 世界天然气 原文如下： Malaysia’s MISC reports lower LNG revenue Malaysian LNG shipping giant MISC, a unit of Petronas, said on Monday its liquefied natural gas business logged a 14.9 percent decrease in revenue in the third quarter of this year. MISC’s LNG fleet of 27 carriers and two FSUs earned 595.9 million ringgit ($144.4m) in the quarter that ended September 30 as compared to 709.2 million ringgit in 2017. MISC attributed the drop mainly due to “lower earning days and lower charter rate following contract renewal of an LNG carrier in October 2017.” LNG operating profit of 249.4 million ringgit dropped 38.1 percent year-on-year. MISC said in its quarterly financial report that LNG spot rates rose to a peak in third quarter, after a lacklustre start for the year, fuelled by higher than expected Chinese imports. “The Group’s LNG shipping unit will take advantage of the buoyant market conditions to lockin higher charter rates for two to three of its vessels which are presently in the spot market,” MISC said. Nevertheless, the operating income of the larger and core LNG fleet continues to be underwritten by the portfolio of long-term charters that are in place, it said.
