石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據今日油價網2月8日消息 日本經濟、貿易和工業部長Hiroshige Seko周五在接受普氏能源的書面采訪時表示，在全球石油市場日益不確定的情況下，日本正尋求加強與俄羅斯的能源合作，對莫斯科的國際制裁并不禁止合作。 據Seko稱，日本幾乎完全依賴進口原油和液化天然氣來滿足對這些產品的需求，日本認為，由于美國對伊朗實施制裁，全球石油市場的不確定性增加，俄羅斯遠東地區的運輸時間縮短，運輸路線更安全，因此日本受益匪淺。 Seko對普氏能源表示：“俄羅斯原油和液化天然氣的進口不會經過像霍爾木茲海峽等這樣的任何要塞。因此，它們對日本能源進口來源的多樣化至關重要，我希望俄羅斯將發揮更大的作用，我也希望繼續努力擴大我們的合作?！?目前日本嚴重依賴從中東進口貨物，貨物必須通過霍爾木茲海峽，伊朗在過去幾年多次威脅要封鎖霍爾木茲海峽。 日本部長表示，日本公司也有興趣參與俄羅斯的液化天然氣計劃項目，包括北極液化天然氣2號項目、波羅的海液化天然氣項目以及庫頁島的第三條液化天然氣項目。他指出，如果日本公司能確保參與，那么日本未來可能會增加從俄羅斯進口液化天然氣。 Seko對普氏能源表示，對俄羅斯的制裁不是日本擔心的問題，因為東京遵守了制裁相關條例，但制裁并未全面禁止日本與俄羅斯的能源合作。 日本和俄羅斯公司最近就液化天然氣未來可能的合作達成了早期協議。 由于俄羅斯的液化天然氣生產商諾瓦泰克（Novatek）正尋求向不斷增長的亞洲市場增加液化天然氣供應，俄羅斯公司最近與日本Saibu Gas簽署了一份初步協議，根據該協議，俄羅斯公司將考慮在進入亞洲最終消費液化天然氣市場方面進行潛在合作。該俄羅斯公司12月表示，諾瓦泰克將利用位于日本Saibu Gas公司的Hibiki液化天然氣終端，優化其對亞太地區的液化天然氣供應。 王磊 摘譯自 今日油價 原文如下： Japan To Boost Energy Cooperation With Russia Amid growing uncertainties on the global oil market, Japan is looking to boost its energy cooperation with Russia, and international sanctions on Moscow don’t prohibit cooperation, Japan’s Economy, Trade and Industry Minister Hiroshige Seko said in a written interview with S&P Global Platts published on Friday. Japan, which relies almost exclusively on imports of crude oil and liquefied natural gas (LNG) to meet its demand for those products, sees the benefit of shorter travel times and safer routes for deliveries from Russia’s Far East, amid increased uncertainties in the global oil market with the U.S. sanctions on Iran, according to Seko. “Imports of Russian crude oil and LNG do not go through any chokepoints such as the Strait of Hormuz. Therefore they are important for the diversification of Japan’s energy import sources, and I hope that Russia will play an even larger role. I would like to continue working to expand our cooperation,” Seko told Platts. Currently, Japan relies heavily on imports from the Middle East, with cargoes having to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has threatened to block numerous times over the past few years. Japanese companies are also interested in taking part in planned LNG projects in Russia, including Arctic LNG 2, Baltic LNG, and the third train at Sakhalin, the Japanese minister said, noting that if Japanese firms secure participation, Japan could boost its LNG imports from Russia in the future. Sanctions on Russia are not a concern for Japan, because Tokyo complies with them, yet sanctions “do not comprehensively prohibit Japan’s energy cooperation with Russia,” Seko told Platts. Japanese and Russian firms have recently entered into an early agreement for possible future cooperation in LNG. As Russia’s LNG producer Novatek is looking to boost LNG supply to the growing Asian market, the Russian firm has recently signed a preliminary agreement with Japan’s Saibu Gas, under which the companies will consider potential cooperation in entering the end-consumer LNG market in Asia. Novatek will optimize its LNG supplies to the Asia-Pacific region by using Saibu Gas’s Hibiki LNG terminal in Japan, the Russian firm said in December. ?
