石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據世界天然氣網站12月4日報道，總部位于韓國的FSRU項目開發公司EPIK已與澳大利亞紐卡斯爾港(Port of Newcastle)簽訂了一項項目開發選擇協議，啟動擬議中的液化天然氣FSRU進口終端的初步工程。 該項目名為紐卡斯爾液化天然氣公司，位于紐卡斯爾港，該公司位于新南威爾士天然氣市場，天然氣價格仍高于亞洲液化天然氣價格，EPIK周二在聲明中表示。 EPIK創始人兼董事總經理Jee Yoon表示，“基于我們對新南威爾士天然氣市場的評估，特別是沿紐約州和悉尼等沿海需求地區，我們有信心通過新的低成本FSRU進口LNG終端，我們將能夠提供一個基礎設施解決方案，能夠長期為該地區提供具有成本效益的替代天然氣供應來源?！?紐卡斯爾港位于現有天然氣輸送網絡的后端，是澳大利亞最大的港口之一，也是主要的貿易和物流樞紐，使其成為開發液化天然氣進口碼頭的最佳區域。 Yoon補充說，該公司打算通過討論其他潛在項目，如燃氣發電廠和液化天然氣加注設施，擴大與紐卡斯爾港的關系。 紐卡斯爾液化天然氣項目的潛在投資估計在4億美元至4.3億美元之間，其中包括17萬立方米的FSRU新建項目和相關的岸上基礎設施。 EPIK預計將向FSRU新造船廠下訂單，但需要獲得監管機構對該項目的批準。 李方征 編譯自 世界天然氣 原文如下： EPIK nets FSRU project development deal in Australia EPIK, a South Korea-based FSRU project development company, has entered into a project development option agreement with Port of Newcastle, Australia to start preliminary works on a proposed LNG FSRU import terminal. The project, named Newcastle LNG, will be sited within the Port of Newcastle, located to serve the New South Wales gas market where natural gas prices remain higher than Asian LNG prices, EPIK said in its statement on Tuesday. Jee Yoon, EPIK’s founder and managing director, said, “Based on our assessment of the New South Wales gas market, particularly along coastal demand regions such as Newcastle and Sydney, we are confident that by importing LNG via a new, low-cost FSRU terminal, we will be able to provide an infrastructure solution that is capable of delivering a cost-efficient source of alternative gas supplies to the region on a long-term basis.” Situated at the back-end of the existing gas transmission network, Port of Newcastle is one of Australia’s largest ports and a major trade and logistics hub, together making it an optimal area to develop an LNG import terminal. Yoon added that the company intends to expand its relationship with the Port of Newcastle by discussing other potential projects, such as a gas-fired power plant and an LNG bunkering facility. The potential investment for the Newcastle LNG project is estimated to be between $400 million and $430 million, which will include a 170,000-cbm FSRU newbuild and associated on-shore infrastructure. EPIK expects to place an order for the FSRU newbuild with a shipyard subject to receiving regulatory approvals for the project. ?
