科威特计划到明年3月将LNG产能提高一倍

    中国石化新闻网讯 据彭博社9月25日消息称，据彭博社报道，科威特计划在明年3月开放Al-Zour液化天然气终端。Al-Zour将成为中东地区同类中最大的终端。

    该工厂将拥有每年2200万吨液化天然气的产能，是该地区产能的两倍。随着天然气成为最清洁的碳氢化合物，世界开始转向更清洁的能源。

    彭博社NEF计算得出，到2030年，科威特将使用不到Al-Zour产能的三分之一。

    科威特综合石油工业公司预计将在未来几周内选择一家公司来经营和维护Al-Zour，为期5年。

    Kuwait plans to double LNG capacity by March

    Kuwait is planning to open the Al-Zour LNG terminal by March, Bloomberg reported, citing anonymous sources. Al-Zour will be the largest plant of its kind in the Middle East.

    The plant will have a capacity of 22 million tons of LNG per year, doubling the region's capacity. This comes as the world shifts towards cleaner sources of energy, with gas serving as the cleanest hydrocarbon.

    Bloomberg NEF calculated that Kuwait would use less than one-third of Al-Zour's capacity until 2030.

    Kuwait Integrated Petroleum Industries Company is expected in the next few weeks to select a company to operate and maintain Al-Zour for five years.
