中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价2月18日报道，本月早些时候，分析师为欧洲天然气价格敲响了警钟，当时许多亚洲买家正在拒绝液化天然气货物，欧洲正在吸收这些货物，填补了其储存空间。现在，所有的人似乎都在想价格何时会触底，是否会触底。 天然气目前处于熊市。 彭博社的Vanessa Dezem和Will Mathis本周早些时候写道，在欧洲，该基准指数自今年初以来已经下跌27％，而去年则下跌了近50％。他们在德国E-World活动的报道中还援引了贸易商和分析师的话称，他们不会冒险猜测价格可能会进一步下跌。 这可能是一个令人担忧的迹象。 全球天然气产量一直在上升。这不仅仅是美国，虽然美国正以其廉价的水力压裂天然气率先收费，但也包括澳大利亚、以色列、俄罗斯和挪威等。现在有更多的天然气在提供，但需求疲软。 然而，欧洲的经济情况也不是很好，现在已经有一段时间了。欧元区经济，它聚集了一些欧洲最大的天然气消费者，特别是德国，多年来一直步履蹒跚，似乎没有什么能帮助其更强劲地增长。德国本身在去年经历了技术性衰退，并在该年的最后三个月实现了零经济增长。这不利于对任何能源商品的乐观情绪，更不用说过度供应天然气了。 郝芬 译自 今日油价 原文如下： European Gas Prices Set To Slump Earlier this month analysts sounded the alarm for European natural gas prices when it turned out that a lot of Asian buyers are turning down LNG cargoes and Europe is taking these in, filling up its storage space. Now, everyone seems to be wondering when prices will bottom out, if they will bottom out at all. Gas is in a bear market at the moment. In Europe, the benchmark has lost 27 percent since the start of the year after losing close to 50 percent last year, Bloomberg’s Vanessa Dezem and Will Mathis wrote earlier this week. Reporting from the E-World event in Germany, they also quoted traders and analysts as saying they wouldn’t venture a guess at how low price could fall further. This could be a worrying sign. Natural gas production has been rising globally. It’s not just the United States, although the U.S. is leading the charge with its cheap fracked gas, but it’s also Australia, Israel, Russia, and Norway, among others. There is more gas on offer now but demand is stuttering. Yet economic sentiment is not too great in Europe either and it has been that way for a while now. The eurozone economy, which groups some of Europe’s biggest gas consumers, notably Germany, has been stumbling along for years now and nothing seems to help it grow more strongly. Germany itself registered a technical recession last year and for the final three months of that year it booked zero economic growth. That’s not conducive to a bullish sentiment about any energy commodity, let alone excessive-supply gas.
