中国石化新闻网讯 据美国彭博新闻社2022年11月23日报道,美国最大石油和天然气生产商之一康菲石油公司日前同意在桑普拉能源公司拟建的美国得克萨斯州亚瑟港液化天然气(LNG)出口终端的第一阶段开发项目中获得30%的股份。
两家公司签署的这项协议包括一份为期20年的每年500万吨LNG的买卖协议,以及一份天然气供应管理协议,根据该协议,康菲公司将管理原料气供应需求。
这项协议将使康菲公司在这个可能成为美国下一个开始建设的主要LNG出口终端之一的项目中获得相当大的股份。提高美国的LNG出口能力被视为欧洲取代管道天然气供应的关键。
总部位于圣地亚哥的桑普拉能源公司周二在一份声明中表示,桑普拉能源公司预计将在2023年第一季度做出这个项目第一阶段开发的最终投资决定。这个LNG口终端预计将包括两条天然气液化生产线和LNG储罐,设计年产量高达1350万吨超冷燃料。

ConocoPhillips to take stake in Sempra LNG US export terminal
ConocoPhillips, one of the largest US oil and gas producers, agreed to take a 30% stake in the first phase of Sempra Energy’s proposed Port Arthur liquefied natural gas terminal in Texas.
The deal involves a 20-year sale and purchase agreement for an annual 5 million metric tons of LNG, and a natural gas supply management agreement whereby ConocoPhillips will manage feedgas supply requirements.
The accord would give ConocoPhillips a significant stake in what could be one of the next major US LNG export terminals to start construction. Boosting US export capacity is seen as crucial for Europe to replace supplies of natural gas.
San Diego-based Sempra said in a statement Tuesday that it expects to make a final investment decision for Phase 1 of the project in the first quarter of 2023. The terminal, which is expected to include two gas liquefaction trains and LNG storage tanks, is designed to produce as much as 13.5 million tons of the super-chilled fuel a year.
