石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據世界天然氣網站11月20日報道，馬來西亞液化天然氣運輸巨頭MISC周一表示，其液化天然氣業務今年第三季度的收入下降了14.9％。 截至9月30日的季度，MISC的27個運營商和兩個FSU的液化天然氣船隊贏得5.959億林吉特（1.444億美元），而2017年為7.0920億林吉特。 MISC歸因于下降主要是由于“2017年10月LNG運輸公司續簽合同后收入日數下降和租船費率下降”。 液化天然氣運營利潤為2.494億林吉特，同比下降38.1％。 MISC在其季度財務報告中表示，由于中國進口量高于預期，今年開工率低迷，液化天然氣現貨價格在第三季度達到頂峰。 “集團的液化天然氣運輸部門將利用蓬勃的市場條件鎖定其目前在現貨市場中的兩到三艘船的更高租船費率，”MISC說。 盡管如此，大型和核心液化天然氣船隊的營業收入繼續由長期包機組合承保，它說。 李方征 編譯自 世界天然氣 原文如下： Malaysia’s MISC reports lower LNG revenue Malaysian LNG shipping giant MISC, a unit of Petronas, said on Monday its liquefied natural gas business logged a 14.9 percent decrease in revenue in the third quarter of this year. MISC’s LNG fleet of 27 carriers and two FSUs earned 595.9 million ringgit ($144.4m) in the quarter that ended September 30 as compared to 709.2 million ringgit in 2017. MISC attributed the drop mainly due to “lower earning days and lower charter rate following contract renewal of an LNG carrier in October 2017.” LNG operating profit of 249.4 million ringgit dropped 38.1 percent year-on-year. MISC said in its quarterly financial report that LNG spot rates rose to a peak in third quarter, after a lacklustre start for the year, fuelled by higher than expected Chinese imports. “The Group’s LNG shipping unit will take advantage of the buoyant market conditions to lockin higher charter rates for two to three of its vessels which are presently in the spot market,” MISC said. Nevertheless, the operating income of the larger and core LNG fleet continues to be underwritten by the portfolio of long-term charters that are in place, it said. ?
