石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社12月14日報道，周五，聯邦能源監管機構工作人員發布了一份環境報告草案，該草案表明了安諾瓦LNG公司在德克薩斯州的Brownsville LNG出口終端在獲得聯邦政府批準建造方面又向前邁出了一步。 在這份被稱為環境影響說明的報告中，聯邦能源管理委員會（FERC）的工作人員得出結論，該項目的建設和運營將會對環境造成一些不利影響，但是，如果該公司遵循報告草案中的建議，這些影響不會很大。FERC在一份新聞稿中說，其委員們在決定該項目時將考慮到FERC工作人員的建議，但FERC并沒有說委員們什么時候會做出這一決定。 Brownsville項目包括液化設施、兩個液化天然氣儲罐、一個管道儀表站和海上轉運設施。由芝加哥能源公司Exelon集團支持的安諾瓦公司在其網站上表示，Brownsville項目將耗資近30億美元。 該項目旨在每年生產600萬噸液化天然氣，約為每天8億立方英尺的天然氣。而10億立方英尺的天然氣足夠每天為500萬個家庭提供燃料。安諾瓦表示，公司計劃在2019年第四季度對該項目做出最終投資決定，并在2024年投入使用。 安諾瓦的項目是美國、加拿大和墨西哥正在開發的幾十個LNG出口終端之一，這些終端正在尋找客戶，以便在未來幾年內建成，滿足全球日益增長的燃料需求。 2017年，美國成為包括LNG在內的天然氣凈出口國，這是60年來的第一次。從目前正在建設的工廠來看，美國LNG的出口能力預計將從目前的約每天52億立方英尺上升到2019年的每天89億立方英尺，2020年的每天103億立方英尺。 參與安諾瓦項目的其他公司包括Black & Veatch公司和Kiewit公司。 詹曉晶摘自路透社 原文如下： Annova’s Texas Brownsville LNG export plant passes environmental test Annova LNG’s proposed Brownsville liquefied natural gas export terminal in Texas took a step toward receiving federal approval for construction on Friday after staff at the federal energy regulator issued a draft environmental report. In the report, known as an environmental impact statement, staff at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) concluded construction and operation of the project would result in some adverse environmental impacts, but those impacts “would not be significant” if the company follows recommendations in the draft report. FERC said in a release its commissioners will take the FERC staff’s recommendations into consideration when they decide on the project. FERC did not say when the commissioners would make that decision. The Brownsville project includes liquefaction facilities, two LNG storage tanks, a pipeline meter station and marine transfer facilities. Annova, which is backed by Chicago-based energy company Exelon Corp, said on its website the Brownsville project would cost nearly $3 billion. The project is designed to produce 6.0 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of LNG, which is roughly 0.8 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) of natural gas. One billion cubic feet is enough gas to fuel about 5 million homes for a day. Annova said it plans to make a final investment decision to build the project in the fourth quarter of 2019 and put the facility into service in 2024. Annova’s project is one of dozens of LNG export terminals under development in the United States, Canada and Mexico seeking customers so they can get built over the next several years to meet growing global demand for the fuel. The United States became a net exporter of gas, including LNG, for the first time in 60 years in 2017. Looking at the plants currently under construction, U.S. LNG export capacity is expected to rise to 8.9 bcfd in 2019 and 10.3 bcfd in 2020, from around 5.2 bcfd in service now. Other companies involved in the Annova project include Black & Veatch Corp and Kiewit Corp. ?
