波兰PGNiG寻求收购美LNG出口设施股权

中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯6月4日华沙报道，波兰政府能源基础设施顾问皮奥特•奈姆斯基(Piotr Naimski)周一在华沙表示，为了获得美国的液化天然气（LNG）供应，波兰占主导地位的天然气生产商和分销商波兰国家石油天然气公司（PGNiG）时下正与美国公司就收购美国LNG出口设施股权进行初步谈判。

奈姆斯基对采访他的媒体记者说：“PGNiG时下正在寻找这样的机会，我们知道，公司管理层正在与美国公司进行试探性会谈。问题在于找到合适的合作伙伴。PGNiG正在考虑这样的选择，这是公司获取新天然气来源的战略。”

奈姆斯基表示，PGNiG正在考虑与一家美国的中型或小型页岩气生产公司合作。他们每家公司都有自己的页岩气并试图出售这些页气。他们还考虑在终端上拥有股份，或者有时考虑建造自己的小型终端。这些业务的规模都是潜在投资者可以接受的。

PGNiG希望增加LNG进口以摆脱对俄罗斯天然气的依赖。PGNiG与俄罗斯天然气工业股份公司(Gazprom)签署的长期供应合同将于2022年到期，PGNiG不打算延长。PGNiG与卡塔尔签订了长期的LNG供应合同，也与英国森特里卡签订了5年的美国LNG供应合同。

PGNiG in talks to take stakes in US LNG export facilities

Poland's dominant natural gas producer and distributor PGNiG is holding preliminary talks with US companies about taking equity stakes in LNG export facilities as a way to gain access to US LNG supplies, the Polish government's energy infrastructure adviser, Piotr Naimski said Monday.

"PGNiG is exploring such opportunities, we know that the company's management is holding exploratory talks with US companies. It's a matter of finding the right partner. PGNiG is considering such options and this is within the company's strategy of acquiring new gas sources," Naimski told reporters.

Naimski said PGNiG was thinking of partnering with a medium- or even small-scale US shale gas producer.

"Each of them has its own gas and is trying to sell this gas. They also think about having shares in terminals or sometimes building their own, small capacity terminal. These are undertakings whose scale is acceptable to potential investors," he said.

PGNiG wants to increase its LNG imports to diversify away from its dependence on Russian gas. Its long-term supply contract with Gazprom is due to expire in 2022 and PGNiG is not planning to extend it.

PGNiG has a long-term LNG supply contract with Qatargas as well as a five-year deal with Centrica for US LNG supplies.
