巴布亚新几内亚LNG设施恢复或需八周时间

中国石化新闻网讯 据道琼斯悉尼3月5日消息，埃克森美孚表示，公司位于巴布亚新几内亚的天然气设施可能需要八周才能恢复生产，因2月26日地震遭遇破坏后公司需要对此进行抢修。

埃克森美孚和其合作伙伴关闭了位于巴布亚新几内亚首都莫尔斯比港城外的一个液化天然气（LNG）设施的两条生产线，此前这些合作方还关闭了发生7.5级地震的Highlands地区的一个天然气净化厂。

埃克森美孚巴布亚新几内亚公司董事总经理Andrew Barry称：“我们已经从埃克森美孚全球雇员中抽调技术专家成立了工作组，帮助当地团队完成破损评估及恢复生产。”

DJ Papua New Guinea LNG Facilities May Take 8 Weeks to Restart After Quake

Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM) said it may take roughly eight weeks to restart production at natural-gas facilities in Papua New Guinea, as it repairs damage caused by a Feb. 26 earthquake.

The energy company and its partners halted both production lines at a liquefied natural gas operation outside the capital of Port Moresby after shutting a gas-conditioning plant in the Highlands region where the magnitude 7.5 earthquake struck.

"We have assembled a team of technical experts from ExxonMobil's global workforce to help the local team complete damage evaluations and restore production," Andrew Barry, managing director of ExxonMobil PNG, said.
