由于供应不足 欧洲天然气价格再创新高

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据俄罗斯油气网9月14日莫斯科报道， 交易数据显示，欧洲市场天然气价格再创新高，超过730美元/千立方米。

　　RT分析称，这种商品现在的价格是2020年价格的5倍。

　　荷兰TTF指数显示，周一交易时段的10月份天然气期货价格为每千立方米713.10美元，在格林尼治时间7：30跃升至728.20美元，随后又迅速攀升至730.10美元。

　　欧洲市场上之前的天然气价格纪录是在9月10日创下的，当日交易结束时达到了710美元/千立方米。

　　就家庭而言，这意味着化石燃料的价格已接近每兆瓦时60美元，自去年以来已经上涨了5倍。

　　天然气价格飙升，很大程度上是因为欧洲市场目前天然气严重短缺，库存水平远低于5年平均水平。

　　与此同时，疫情后复苏带来的需求增加，以及最近来自俄罗斯等主要天然气供应国的供应下降，部分原因是途经乌克兰的天然气数量减少。

　　专家表示，最糟糕的情况还没有到来，因为每年这个时候对天然气的需求仍然很低。

　　根据彭博社的分析，欧洲将迎来一个非常艰难的冬天，天然气价格可能在不久的将来达到前所未有的高点。

　　European gas prices hit another record high on low supply

　　The price of natural gas in the European market has set yet another record, exceeding $730 per thousand m3, trading data shows.

　　The commodity now costs 5 times its 2020 price, RT analysed.

　　The price of October gas futures at the launch of the Monday trading session was $713.10 per thousand m3, jumping to $728.20 by 7:30 GMT and quickly reaching $730.10 a little after that, the Dutch TTF index shows.

　　The previous gas price record on the European market was set last Friday, when it reached $710 per thousand m3 by the end of the trading day.

　　In household terms, this means the fossil fuel’s price now edges toward $60 per megawatt-hour, having increased 5-fold since last year.

　　Gas prices have surged largely because the European market is severely short-supplied at the moment, with storage levels well below their 5-year average.

　　This is coupled with increased demand amid the post-pandemic recovery and a recent drop in deliveries from its key supply sources, including Russia, partly as a result of lower flows through Ukraine.

　　Experts say the worst is yet to come, as demand for natural gas at this time of year is still low.

　　According to a Bloomberg analysis, Europe is headed for a very difficult winter, with prices likely to hit unprecedented highs in the near future.
