據(jù)油氣新聞7月12日消息稱，根據(jù)國際液化天然氣進口商集團（GIIGNL）的《2022年液化天然氣行業(yè)GIIGNL年度報告》，2021年全球液化天然氣的平均貿(mào)易量為490億立方英尺/天，比2020年增加了22億立方英尺/天（4.5%）。新的液化天然氣出口能力，主要是在美國，以及全球天然氣需求的增長推動了去年全球液化天然氣貿(mào)易的持續(xù)增長。

過去五年 （2017-2021） 全球液化天然氣出口能力增加了29%，即140億立方英尺/天。這一增長主要是由美國增加的96億立方英尺/天、澳大利亞增加的22億立方英尺/天和產(chǎn)能大國增加的17億立方英尺/天的產(chǎn)能帶動的。去年，美國的液化天然氣出口量增長最多，比2020年增加了29億立方英尺/天。澳大利亞LNG出口量增加了1億立方英尺/天，連續(xù)第二年保持世界最大LNG出口國的地位。在北非，埃及的LNG出口量增加了7億立方英尺/天，阿爾及利亞的LNG出口量增加了2億立方英尺/天，這是所有LNG出口國中第二和第三大同比增幅。

Global trade in liquefied natural gas grew by 4.5% in 2021

An average of 49.0 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) of liquefied natural gas (LNG) was traded globally during 2021, an increase of 2.2 Bcf/d (4.5%) from 2020, according to The LNG Industry GIIGNL Annual Report 2022 by the International Group of Liquefied Natural Gas importers (GIIGNL). New LNG export capacity, primarily in the United States, and rising global demand for natural gas drove continued growth in global LNG trade last year.

Global LNG export capacity has increased by 29%, or 14.0 Bcf/d, over the past five years (2017–21). The growth was led primarily by capacity additions of 9.6 Bcf/d in the United States, 2.2 Bcf/d in Australia, and 1.7 Bcf/d in the bigger oil-producer. Last year, LNG exports increased the most from the United States, a 2.9 Bcf/d increase compared with 2020. Australia increased its LNG exports by 0.1 Bcf/d, remaining the world’s largest LNG exporter for the second consecutive year. In North Africa, LNG exports from Egypt increased by 0.7 Bcf/d and from Algeria by 0.2 Bcf/d, the second- and third-largest year-on-year volumetric increases among all LNG-exporting countries.
