據(jù)OE網(wǎng)站4月11日?qǐng)?bào)道，殼牌公司周一表示，在因嚴(yán)重電力故障而關(guān)閉四個(gè)月后，已恢復(fù)從澳大利亞西北部的Prelude浮式液化天然氣(LNG)設(shè)施運(yùn)輸液化天然氣(LNG)。

據(jù)殼牌發(fā)言人表示，周日晚間，一艘完成裝載貨物的船只離開了該地，但拒絕透露目的地。

殼牌在一份聲明中表示，我們?cè)?Prelude 的重點(diǎn)仍然是長期并為未來提供安全、持續(xù)和可靠的性能。

年產(chǎn)360萬噸的Prelude FLNG設(shè)施于去年12月2日斷電，殼牌在嘗試了三天后仍無法恢復(fù)可靠的電力供應(yīng)。

殼牌公司上個(gè)月獲準(zhǔn)恢復(fù)運(yùn)營，此前該公司說服了澳大利亞國家海洋石油安全和環(huán)境管理局(National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority)，稱問題已經(jīng)解決，公司可以在斷電的情況下安全運(yùn)營該設(shè)施。

此次為期四個(gè)月的停產(chǎn)只是Prelude FLNG自2019年推遲啟動(dòng)以來面臨的最新挫折。

去年12月，Prelude的停產(chǎn)是推高液化天然氣價(jià)格的一個(gè)因素。自那以來，天然氣價(jià)格飆升至創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄高位，由于歐洲爭相尋找天然氣。

Prelude由殼牌、Inpex Corp、韓國天然氣公司(KOGAS)等公司共同擁有。

Shell Restarts LNG Shipping from Prelude FLNG

Shell Plc said on Monday it has resumed shipping liquefied natural gas (LNG) from its Prelude floating LNG facility off northwest Australia after a four-month shutdown due to a major power failure.

A cargo completed loading and left the site on Sunday night, a Shell spokesperson said, declining to disclose the destination.

"Our focus at Prelude remains on the long-term and delivering safe, sustained and reliable performance into the future," Shell said in a statement.

The 3.6 million-tonnes-a-year Prelude FLNG facility lost power on Dec. 2, and Shell was unable to restore reliable power supply after trying for three days.

Shell was permitted to resume operations last month after convincing the National Offshore Petroleum Safety and Environmental Management Authority that problems had been fixed and the company could run the facility safely in the event of a power loss.  

The four-month shutdown was just the latest setback that Prelude FLNG has faced since its delayed start-up in 2019.

The outage at Prelude was one factor that drove up LNG prices last December. Prices have since rocketed to record highs as Europe has scrambled for gas .

Prelude is co-owned by Shell, Inpex Corp, Korea Gas Corp (KOGAS) 。
