石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社11月14日西班牙港口報道，特立尼達和多巴哥總理Keith Rowley星期二呼吁天然氣出口國論壇（GECF）制定并實施天然氣價格指數，以確保成員國在碳氫化合物銷售中獲得足夠的回報。 隨著越來越多的天然氣供應通過LNG進口供應給消費國，生產商旨在通過鼓勵他們認為公平的價格來確保出口收入。 Rowley在西班牙港舉行的第20屆GECF部長級會議開幕式上表示：“現在比以往任何時候都更需要這樣一個全球參考價格，以保護生產者和消費者?！?英國石油公司的《世界能源統計評論》顯示，受歐洲、中東、非洲和亞太地區需求增長的推動，去年天然氣消耗量增長了3%，達到3.67萬億立方米。 但產量卻以更高的速度增長，突顯出買方市場繼續阻止實行以美國亨利中心為指標的價格（即目前價格未增長到生產者可以接受的水平）。 亨利中心的價格最近已從過去四年的每百萬英熱單位3美元以下的水平回升到11月份的每百萬英熱單位4美元以上。但美國能源信息管理局上周預測，到2019年，美國天然氣價格的下行壓力平均為每百萬英熱單位2.98美元。 詹曉晶摘自路透社 原文如下： Producer Trinidad calls for global gas pricing index Trinidad and Tobago’s Prime Minister Keith Rowley on Tuesday called on the Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) to develop and implement a gas pricing index to ensure members receive adequate returns on the sale of the hydrocarbon. As gas supplies become increasingly available for consuming countries through Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) imports, producers aim to secure revenue from exports by encouraging what they consider to be fair pricing. “Now more than ever, the need for such a global reference price is evident, in order to protect both producers and consumers alike,” Rowley said at the opening of GECF’s 20th Ministerial Meeting in Port of Spain. Natural gas consumption grew 3 percent to 3.67 trillion cubic meters last year, pushed by bigger demand in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia-Pacific, according to BP’s Statistical Review of World Energy. But production increased at a higher rate, underlining a buyers’ market that continues stopping prices indexed to the U.S. Henry Hub from growing to levels acceptable to producers. Prices at the Henry Hub have recently recovered from levels below $3 per million British Thermal Unit (BTU) in the last four years to surpass $4 per million BTU in November. But the U.S. Energy Information Administration last week forecast downward pressure on prices to an average of $2.98 per million BTU in 2019. ? ?
