中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社12月15日新加坡報道,亞洲LNG現貨價格在本周結束了三周的大幅下跌,并最終走高,預計冬季的到來將提振對天然氣的供暖需求。不過,由于預計下周大部分時間東京、北京和首爾(亞洲對天然氣的最大需求中心)的氣溫將比往常高,以及越來越多的現貨供應將從美國和俄羅斯進入亞洲市場,因此價格漲幅有限。 一些行業人士表示,明年1月份交貨的現貨價格小幅上漲了約10美分,至8.9美元/ mmBtu左右,貨物價格從8.5美元/ mmBtu至9.1美元/ mmBtu不等。明年2月份交貨的價格也略有上漲,估計在9.1美元/ mmBtu至9.3美元/ mmBtu左右,使價格曲線保持在期貨溢價。 一位新加坡LNG交易員表示:“現貨市場可能已經觸底,價格基本持平,我聽說有更多的人在尋找貨物?!?在供應方面,切尼爾能源公司從其位于德克薩斯州的科珀斯克里斯蒂LNG設施中裝載了LNG貨物,這是第三個大型LNG出口終端,將在美國48個州投入使用。 希臘本周表示,將于12月29日進口第一批來自切尼爾15萬立方米的美國LNG。 俄羅斯的亞馬爾LNG已經提前12個月在其工廠啟動了3號生產線,該工廠的年產能達到1650萬噸。 詹曉晶摘自路透社 原文如下: Asian prices snap three-week losing streak as winter kicks in Asian spot prices for liquefied natural gas (LNG) snapped a three-week losing streak to end higher this week, with the onset of winter expected to boost demand for natural gas for heating. But gains were limited amid forecasts of warmer-than-usual temperatures for most of next week in Tokyo, Beijing and Seoul, the top demand centers for natural gas in Asia, and as more spot supply entered the market from the United States and Russia. Spot prices for January delivery edged up about 10 cents to around $8.90 per million British thermal units (mmBtu), with cargoes trading from as low as $8.50 per mmBtu to as high as $9.10 per mmBtu, several industry sources said. Prices for February delivery also inched higher and were estimated at around $9.10 to $9.30 per mmBtu, keeping the price curve in contango. “The (spot) market has probably bottomed out with (prices) being pretty flat and I am hearing of more people looking for cargoes,” said a Singapore-based LNG trader. On the supply side, Cheniere Energy (LNG.A) loaded the commissioning cargo of LNG from its Corpus Christi liquefaction facility in Texas, the third big LNG export terminal to enter service in the lower 48 U.S. states. Greece this week said it would import its first U.S. LNG cargο of 150,000 cubic meters on Dec. 29 from Cheniere. Russia’s Yamal LNG has started up train 3 at its plant, 12 months ahead of schedule, with the plant reaching full capacity of 16.5 million tonnes a year. ? ?
