中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价6月30日报道，艾伯塔省政府正采取措施推动经济复苏，昨日公布了一份计划，其中包括数十亿美元的基础设施投资和减税等措施。 根据该计划，贾森•肯尼政府将从7月1日起将原定于2022年1月1日生效的一般商业税率从10%降至8%。政府还将在基础设施项目上投资73亿美元，以创造就业机会。 艾伯塔省政府表示，将在基石（Keystone）XL管道上投入约11亿美元（15亿加元），以支持该省的复苏并创造7000个就业岗位。然而，这条管道是否能完成还很难说，因为美国对该项目的反对仍在为其最终敲定的道路上设置一个又一个障碍。 预计全球石油和天然气价格将在12至18个月内回到每桶60美元的WTI基准水平。在这种环境下，只要能够建设新的管道，将产品推向市场，艾伯塔省的油气行业就一定会蓬勃发展。这就是为什么该省投资了15亿美元来确保Keystone XL项目在今年春天破地动工，并且仅今年一年就在加拿大创造了7400个高薪职位。 然而，该计划在能源方面并不仅仅局限于石油。艾伯塔省政府还将支持投资氢能源，利用其丰富的天然气储备生产清洁燃料。碳捕获和储存也是一个令人感兴趣的领域，还有正在兴起的地热能提取技术。 邹勤 摘译自 今日油价 原文如下： Alberta Lays Out Plan To Recover From Oil Price Collapse Alberta's Conservative government is taking steps to jumpstart an economic recovery with a blueprint it released yesterday, which involves billions in infrastructure investment and a tax cut, among other measures. Under the plan, the Jason Kenney government will reduce the general business tax rate from 10 percent to eight percent effective July 1 instead of January 1, 2022, when the tax cut was originally scheduled to go into effect. The government will also invest some $7.3 billion in infrastructure projects that will create jobs. Some $1.1 billion (C$1.5 billion) will be spent on the Keystone XL pipeline, the Alberta government said, which will support the province's recovery and create 7,000 jobs. However, the completion of the pipeline is far from certain as opposition against the project in the U.S. continues to put hurdle after hurdle on its road to finalization. At the moment, the federal government is awaiting a decision by the Supreme Court regarding a lawsuit that is blocking construction. Meanwhile, two tribes have filed a new lawsuit against the controversial pipeline, alleging it violates the national Environmental Policy Act. The Alberta government is firmly behind the 830,000-bpd Keystone XL, however. "Global oil and gas prices are estimated to return to a WTI benchmark of $60 per barrel within 12 to 18 months. In that environment, Alberta's oil and gas sector is set to thrive, as long as we can build new pipelines to get our product to market. This is why we invested $1.5 billion to ensure Keystone XL broke ground this spring - creating 7,400 high-paying jobs in Canada this year alone," the government's economic recovery plan stated. However, the energy aspect of the plan is not solely focused on oil. According to the blueprint, the Alberta government will also support investment in so-called blue hydrogen, utilizing its abundant reserves of natural gas to produce clean fuel. Carbon capture and storage is also an area of interest, as is the emerging technology of geothermal energy extraction. |
