石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价网2月8日消息 日本经济、贸易和工业部长Hiroshige Seko周五在接受普氏能源的书面采访时表示，在全球石油市场日益不确定的情况下，日本正寻求加强与俄罗斯的能源合作，对莫斯科的国际制裁并不禁止合作。 据Seko称，日本几乎完全依赖进口原油和液化天然气来满足对这些产品的需求，日本认为，由于美国对伊朗实施制裁，全球石油市场的不确定性增加，俄罗斯远东地区的运输时间缩短，运输路线更安全，因此日本受益匪浅。 Seko对普氏能源表示：“俄罗斯原油和液化天然气的进口不会经过像霍尔木兹海峡等这样的任何要塞。因此，它们对日本能源进口来源的多样化至关重要，我希望俄罗斯将发挥更大的作用，我也希望继续努力扩大我们的合作。” 目前日本严重依赖从中东进口货物，货物必须通过霍尔木兹海峡，伊朗在过去几年多次威胁要封锁霍尔木兹海峡。 日本部长表示，日本公司也有兴趣参与俄罗斯的液化天然气计划项目，包括北极液化天然气2号项目、波罗的海液化天然气项目以及库页岛的第三条液化天然气项目。他指出，如果日本公司能确保参与，那么日本未来可能会增加从俄罗斯进口液化天然气。 Seko对普氏能源表示，对俄罗斯的制裁不是日本担心的问题，因为东京遵守了制裁相关条例，但制裁并未全面禁止日本与俄罗斯的能源合作。 日本和俄罗斯公司最近就液化天然气未来可能的合作达成了早期协议。 由于俄罗斯的液化天然气生产商诺瓦泰克（Novatek）正寻求向不断增长的亚洲市场增加液化天然气供应，俄罗斯公司最近与日本Saibu Gas签署了一份初步协议，根据该协议，俄罗斯公司将考虑在进入亚洲最终消费液化天然气市场方面进行潜在合作。该俄罗斯公司12月表示，诺瓦泰克将利用位于日本Saibu Gas公司的Hibiki液化天然气终端，优化其对亚太地区的液化天然气供应。 王磊 摘译自 今日油价 原文如下： Japan To Boost Energy Cooperation With Russia Amid growing uncertainties on the global oil market, Japan is looking to boost its energy cooperation with Russia, and international sanctions on Moscow don’t prohibit cooperation, Japan’s Economy, Trade and Industry Minister Hiroshige Seko said in a written interview with S&P Global Platts published on Friday. Japan, which relies almost exclusively on imports of crude oil and liquefied natural gas (LNG) to meet its demand for those products, sees the benefit of shorter travel times and safer routes for deliveries from Russia’s Far East, amid increased uncertainties in the global oil market with the U.S. sanctions on Iran, according to Seko. “Imports of Russian crude oil and LNG do not go through any chokepoints such as the Strait of Hormuz. Therefore they are important for the diversification of Japan’s energy import sources, and I hope that Russia will play an even larger role. I would like to continue working to expand our cooperation,” Seko told Platts. Currently, Japan relies heavily on imports from the Middle East, with cargoes having to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has threatened to block numerous times over the past few years. Japanese companies are also interested in taking part in planned LNG projects in Russia, including Arctic LNG 2, Baltic LNG, and the third train at Sakhalin, the Japanese minister said, noting that if Japanese firms secure participation, Japan could boost its LNG imports from Russia in the future. Sanctions on Russia are not a concern for Japan, because Tokyo complies with them, yet sanctions “do not comprehensively prohibit Japan’s energy cooperation with Russia,” Seko told Platts. Japanese and Russian firms have recently entered into an early agreement for possible future cooperation in LNG. As Russia’s LNG producer Novatek is looking to boost LNG supply to the growing Asian market, the Russian firm has recently signed a preliminary agreement with Japan’s Saibu Gas, under which the companies will consider potential cooperation in entering the end-consumer LNG market in Asia. Novatek will optimize its LNG supplies to the Asia-Pacific region by using Saibu Gas’s Hibiki LNG terminal in Japan, the Russian firm said in December.
