據油價網9月30日消息稱，國際能源署(IEA)執(zhí)行主任Fatih Birol周四表示，與2022年已經緊張的液化天然氣市場相比，明年全球液化天然氣市場可能會更加緊張。

為了減少對管道天然氣的依賴，歐洲近幾個月大幅增加了液化天然氣的進口。今年6月，在莫斯科削減對歐洲的供應后，歐盟從美國進口的液化天然氣有史以來第一次超過了通過管道進口的天然氣。

據路透社報道，國際能源署的比羅爾在日本舉行的液化天然氣生產者-消費者會議上表示，今年到目前為止，歐洲的液化天然氣進口增長了60%。

“去年，產能大國天然氣占我們天然氣進口的40%。如今，管道天然氣的比例降至9%。”歐盟委員會主席在本月早些時候的2022年國情咨文演講中表示。

歐洲在未來幾年也將需要更多的液化天然氣供應，這將使其與亞洲形成競爭，并使全球市場吃緊。

IEA: LNG Market To Be Even Tighter In 2023

The global liquefied natural gas market could be even tighter next year compared to already tight LNG markets in 2022, Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA), said on Thursday.

Europe, looking to slash its dependence on pipeline gas, has significantly boosted imports of LNG in recent months. In June, for the first time ever, the European Union imported more LNG from the United States than gas via pipeline, after Moscow slashed supply to Europe.

So far this year, Europe has seen a 60% spike in LNG imports, the IEA’s Birol said at the LNG Producer-Consumer Conference in Japan, as carried by Reuters.  

“Last year, gas accounted for 40% of our gas imports. Today it’s down to 9% pipeline gas,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said in the 2022 State of the Union speech earlier this month.

Europe will need a lot more LNG supply in the coming years, too, which puts it in competition with Asia and tightens the global market.
