中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社墨爾本9月25日報道,澳大利亞政府周一警告說,該國的東部地區在2018年的天然氣短缺情況比預期的要差,但競爭監管機構表示,這一缺口很容易填補,因為它可以將未收縮的出口轉移到當地市場。
現在由政府決定在11月1日之前決定是否啟動其澳大利亞國內的天然氣安全機制。在發生供應缺口的任意一年,這一機制允許政府控制本國東海岸的液化天然氣(LNG)出口量。
到目前為止,三家東海岸天然氣出口商——由荷蘭皇家殼牌運營的昆士蘭的柯蒂斯液化天然氣(QCLNG),由康菲石油和Origin Energy運營的澳大利亞太平洋液化天然氣(APLNG),以及由桑托斯運營的——均認為則格萊斯頓液化天然氣是最容易受到影響的。

Australian gas supply crunch squeezes east coast LNG exporters
MELBOURNE – The Australian government on Monday warned that the country’s east faced a worse-than-expected natural gas shortfall in 2018, but the competition watchdog said the gap could easily be filled by diverting uncontracted exports to the local market. It is now up to the government to decide by Nov. 1 whether to pull the trigger on its Australian Domestic Gas Security Mechanism, which allows it to curb liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports from the nation’s east coast if it determines there will be a shortfall in any year. Up to now, the three east coast gas exporters – Queensland Curtis LNG (QCLNG) run by Royal Dutch Shell , Australia Pacific LNG (APLNG) run by ConocoPhillips and Origin Energy , and Gladstone LNG run by Santos Ltd – had all seen Gladstone as the most vulnerable to any controls.
