亚洲液化天然气现货价格创季节性新高

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据9月14日offshore energy消息：路透社上周报道，由于欧洲客户争夺有限的供应，亚洲液化天然气现货价格升至有记录以来的季节性最高水平。

　　路透社援引行业消息人士的话称，10月份运往东北亚的液化天然气平均价格约为20.10美元/百万英热单位。较前一周高0.2美元/百万英热单位。

　　交易商还表示，11月份交割的价格将升至21美元/百万英热。

　　液化天然气的成本比去年2美元/百万英热单位的价格上涨了十倍。去年的价格是在新冠肺炎疫情导致需求减少时出现的。

　　此外，上周早些时候，美国天然气期货价格攀升至七年高点，而欧洲也创下历史新高。

　　由于俄罗斯进口减少，欧洲库存一直低于70%的产能，低于85%的5年平均水平。

　　Asian spot LNG prices reach seasonal record

　　Asian spot LNG prices rose to their highest recorded seasonal level due to European customers competing for limited supply, Reuters reported last week.

　　This record in Asian LNG prices was reached last week.

　　Citing industry sources, Reuters informed the average LNG price for October delivery into Northeast Asia is about $20.10 per million British thermal units (mmBtu). This is $0.20 more from the week before.

　　The traders also said the prices for November delivery will go up to $21 per mmBtu.

　　LNG’s cost rose ten times more since the last year’s price of $2 per mmBtu. The last year’s price occurred when the COVID-19 pandemic reduced demand.

　　Furthermore, U.S. natural gas futures climbed to a seven-year high earlier last week, while Europe also hit the all-time record.

　　European inventories have been under 70 per cent capacity, below the 85 per cent 5-year average, due to lower Russian imports.
