中國石化新聞網訊 據普氏首爾1月14日消息,韓國國有企業韓國天然氣公司(Korea Gas Corp .)的管理人士周一表示,由于發電需求減弱和冬季天氣溫和,該公司12月份的液化天然氣銷量同比下降6.6%。 在連續12個月上漲后,這是連續第二個月下跌。 在11月和12月天然氣銷量下降之前,這家國有公用事業公司10月份液化天然氣銷量同比增長37.9%,創下2010年4月以來8年多來的最大增幅。 在國內天然氣銷售中擁有壟斷地位的科加斯公司去年12月銷售了429萬噸天然氣,高于上年同期的460萬噸。 但12月份的銷量較11月份的310萬噸增長了38.3%。 在該公司上個月的液化天然氣總銷量中,發電機的購買量同比下降12.2%,至157萬噸,這也是連續第二個月下降。 12月,面向家庭和企業的零售天然氣公司銷售同比下降3%,至272.1萬噸。 Kogas沒有透露其在2018年全年售出了多少液化天然氣,但普氏能源資訊基于Kogas之前的報告計算得出的數據顯示,該公司在1月至12月期間銷售了3622萬噸,較2017年的3216萬噸增長了12.6%。 2018年全年,對發電企業的天然氣銷售增長19.1%至1640.6萬噸,而家庭和企業的銷售增長7.7%至1981.3萬噸。2017年,Kogas的液化天然氣銷售較2016年的3277萬噸下降1.9%。 Kogas將去年液化天然氣銷售量的增長歸因于天然氣發電廠的運營增加,這與總統Moon Jae-in推動減少該國嚴重依賴煤炭和核電發電的努力相一致。 在Moon推動提高核安全的努力下,該國24個核反應堆中的許多都因維修而關閉。 該國還在3月至6月關閉了五個老化的燃煤發電廠,為期四個月,這是減少空氣污染的舉措之一,也助于提高用于發電的液化天然氣消費量。 Kogas一位官員表示:“在政府推動能源從煤炭和核能向可再生能源和液化天然氣轉型的背景下,預計今年Kogas的液化天然氣銷售將保持強勁?!?陳菲 摘譯自 普氏能源資訊 原文如下: South Korean Kogas’ Dec LNG sales fall 6.6% on year South Korean state-owned Korea Gas Corp’s LNG sales fell 6.6% year on year in December due to weaker demand for power generation and mild winter weather, company officials said Monday. It marks the second consecutive month of decline after rising for 12 months in a row. The declines in November and December came after the state utility’s LNG sales jumped 37.9% year on year in October which marked the biggest increase in more than eight years since April 2010. Kogas, which has a monopoly in domestic natural gas sales, sold 4.29 million mt in December, compared with 4.60 million mt a year earlier. But the December sales were up 38.3% from 3.10 million mt sold in November. Of the utility’s total LNG sales last month, purchases by power generators dipped 12.2% year on year to 1.57 million mt, which was also the second straight month of decline. Sales to retail gas companies for households and businesses also fell 3% year on year to 2.721 million mt in December. Kogas did not disclose how much LNG it sold for the full 2018 year, but S&P Global Platts calculations based on Kogas’ previous reports showed it sold 36.22 million mt over January-December, up 12.6% from 32.16 million mt in 2017. For full-year 2018, sales to power generators jumped 19.1% to 16.406 million mt, while sales to households and businesses rose 7.7% to 19.813 million mt. Kogas’ LNG sales fell 1.9% in 2017 from 32.77 million mt in 2016. Kogas attributed the increase in LNG sales last year to higher operation of natural gas-fired power plants in line with President Moon Jae-in’s push to reduce the country’s heavy reliance on coal and nuclear in power generation. Under Moon’s push to boost nuclear safety, many of the country’s 24 nuclear reactors were shut for maintenance. The country also closed five aging coal-fired power plants for four months from March to June as part of efforts to reduce air pollution, which helped boost LNG consumption for power generation. “Kogas’ LNG sales are expected to remain strong this year on the back of the government’s push for energy transition from coal and nuclear to renewables and LNG,” a Kogas official said. ?
