中国石化新闻网讯 据世界天然气网站3月5日消息 美国能源巨头雪佛龙（Chevron）周二表示，已开始从其位于西澳大利亚昂斯洛附近的Wheatstone液化天然气项目向国内市场供应天然气。 雪佛龙澳大利亚分公司在一份声明中表示，每天可供应200万亿焦天然气，未来几十年，Wheatstone国内天然气将通过与西澳客户签订的合同向当地家庭和企业供应天然气。 雪佛龙澳大利亚公司管理总裁Al Williams说：“我们对Gorgon和Wheatstone天然气设施的投资是澳大利亚的一个主要贡献者，澳大利亚现在是世界上最大的液化天然气供应商之一，并为该州的工业、商业和家庭用户开发了安全的国内天然气供应系统。” Williams 补充说：“清洁燃料的天然气作为一种可靠且经济有效的发电方式，是当前和未来能源需求的重要能源。对西澳州来说，重要的是，国内天然气将为当地就业、当地工业、当地社区提供动力，并在未来几十年提高政府收入。” 声明称，雪佛龙运营的Gorgon和Wheatstone天然气设施将能够为西澳市场每天生产500万亿焦的国内天然气，足以为430万户家庭发电。 声明指出，天然气在西澳州电力生产中的高渗透性是西澳州电力生产的温室气体排放强度在澳大利亚最低的原因，约低于全国平均水平15%。 吴恒磊 编译自 世界天然气 原文如下： Chevron starts Wheatstone domestic gas supplies US energy giant Chevron said Tuesday it started supplying natural gas to the domestic market from its Wheatstone LNG project near Onslow, Western Australia. With capacity to supply 200 terajoules of natural gas per day (Tj/d), Wheatstone domestic gas will supply local households and businesses through contracts with WA customers for decades to come, Chevron Australia, a unit of Chevron said in a statement. “Our investment in the Gorgon and Wheatstone natural gas facilities are a major contributor to Australia now being one of the world’s largest liquefied natural gas (LNG) suppliers and has enabled the development of a secure domestic gas supply for the State’s industrial, commercial and household users,” said Chevron Australia managing director Al Williams. “As a reliable and cost-effective way to generate electricity, cleaner- burning natural gas is a vital energy source for current and future energy needs. Importantly for WA, domestic gas will power local jobs, local industry, local communities and provide government revenues for decades to come,” added Williams. At full capacity, the Chevron-operated Gorgon and Wheatstone natural gas facilities will be able to produce 500 terajoules per day of domestic gas for the WA market – enough to generate electricity for 4.3 million households, according to the statement. The high penetration of natural gas in WA’s electrical power generation is the reason WA’s electricity generation has some of the lowest greenhouse gas emissions intensity in Australia, around 15 percent below the national average, the statement reads.
