石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯布鲁塞尔3月8日消息 欧盟委员会周五表示，欧盟将努力在未来四年将其美国液化天然气进口翻一番，达到每年至少80亿立方米，并寻求使美国成为欧洲的长期主要天然气供应国。 欧盟是仅次于美国的世界第二大单一天然气市场，并且已经进口了约70%的天然气，俄罗斯是其最大的单一供应国。 随着欧盟国内产出下降，预计这一进口份额将会上升，而欧盟也希望供应商多样化，以避免过度依赖俄罗斯。 报告称:“如果美国液化天然气的价格具有竞争力，它可以在欧盟天然气供应中发挥越来越大的作用，促进多样化和欧盟能源安全。” 欧盟委员会的数据显示，2018年欧盟从美国进口了33亿立方米液化天然气，较2017年的22亿立方米增长了50%。2017年欧盟天然气总需求为491亿立方米。 欧盟委员会表示，欧盟和美国计划于5月2日在布鲁塞尔举行首次能源理事会高层联合论坛，具体讨论如何向欧盟“大规模出口美国液化天然气”。 欧盟委员会表示，美国拥有39亿立方米的液化能力，预计到2023年将再增加80亿立方米。 它呼吁美国取消液化天然气出口必须事先获得批准的许可规定，以使向欧洲出口变得更容易。 欧盟委员会表示，欧盟和美国还计划“共同努力，完善欧洲缺失的关键基础设施和投资，以改善液化天然气的供应”。 欧洲委员会列出目前在欧盟兴建的三个液化天然气进口终端以及另外五个计划兴建的具有欧盟共同利益地位的项目。 吴慧丹 摘译自 普氏能源资讯 原文如下： EU plans work to double US LNG imports to 8 Bcm/year by 2023 The EU will work to double its US LNG imports to at least 8 Bcm/year over the next four years, and seek to make the US a major gas supplier to Europe longer term, the European Commission said Friday. The EU is the world’s second biggest single gas market after the US, and already imports around 70% of its gas, with Russia its biggest single supplier. This import share is expected to rise as the EU’s domestic output declines, and the EC is keen to diversify suppliers to avoid over-reliance on Russia. “US LNG, if priced competitively, can play an increasing role in EU gas supply, enhancing diversification and EU energy security,” it said. The EU imported 3.3 Bcm of US LNG in 2018, up 50% from 2.2 Bcm in 2017. Total EU gas demand in 2017 was 491 Bcm, according to EC data. The EU and US plan to hold their first joint Energy Council High Level Forum in Brussels on May 2, specifically to discuss how to move toward “large-scale US LNG exports” to the EU, the EC said. The US has 39 Bcm of liquefaction capacity and is foreseen to add a further 80 Bcm by 2023, the EC said. It called on the US to lift licensing rules requiring prior approval for exporting LNG, to make it easier to export to Europe. The EU and US also plan to develop “joint efforts to complete key missing infrastructures and investments in Europe to improve access to LNG,” the EC said. The EC listed three LNG import terminals currently being built in the EU, plus another five being planned which have EU project of common interest status.
