據(jù)油氣新聞8月10日消息稱，根據(jù)Kamco Invest的數(shù)據(jù)，卡塔爾在今年4月超過美國，成為世界上最大的液化天然氣出口國。在其液化天然氣設(shè)施完成季節(jié)性維護(hù)后，其液化天然氣出口飆升至5年來的最高水平。

2022年4月，卡塔爾液化天然氣出口總額達(dá)到119億美元，而2021年4月為58億美元。卡塔爾的液化天然氣出口大多流向亞洲，其次是印度和日本。

IEA預(yù)計亞太地區(qū)在此期間將推動天然氣需求增長高達(dá)50%。就行業(yè)而言，IEA預(yù)計，2021年至2025年期間，工業(yè)行業(yè)將占全球天然氣增長的60%左右。

卡塔爾在2021年的液化天然氣出口市場份額中占21%，已成為歐盟（EU）試圖從該國進(jìn)口更多液化天然氣的關(guān)鍵國家之一，因為他們正在努力尋找新的供應(yīng)商，并增加液化天然氣進(jìn)口。

Qatar becomes world’s largest LNG exporter

Qatar became the world’s biggest LNG (liquefied natural gas) exporter in April this year, surpassing the US after its LNG exports jumped to a five-year high following the completion of seasonal maintenance on its LNG facilities, according to Kamco Invest.

Total LNG exports of Qatar reached $11.9bn during April 2022 compared to $5.8bn in April 2021. Most of the Qatar’s LNG exports went to Asia, followed by India and Japan.

The IEA (International Energy Agency) expects the Asia Pacific region to drive as much as 50% natural gas demand growth for the period. In terms of sectors, the IEA projects the industrial sector would represent about 60% of the global gas growth between 2021 and 2025.

Qatar, which accounted 21% of the LNG exports market share in 2021, has emerged as one of the key countries that the EU or European Union is trying to import more LNG from as they scramble to find new suppliers and increase LNG imports.
