石油设备网讯 据世界天然气网站3月19日消息 巴布亚新几内亚石油天然气生产商Oil Search即将敲定巴布亚液化天然气项目协议。
在莫尔斯比港举行的一次活动上，Oil Search总经理Peter Botten表示，协议有望在3月底敲定，并于4月初签署。
Botten说：“国家和P’nyang (PRL3)合资企业之间的天然气协议将在不久后最终敲定。”
他说：“此外，合资企业的合作伙伴正在推进支持整合的商业协议，包括场地和设施接入。”
2018年，全球液化天然气需求增长6%，预计到2030年，每年将进一步增长4.5%。这是由政府政策和东北亚市场推动的，这些市场将天然气优先于煤炭和核电，这意味着到2030年，还需要1.2亿吨/年的新供应量。
这使得全球对在未来十年填补供求缺口的兴趣重新燃起，买家也在寻求使来自新国家和新卖家的液化天然气来源多样化。
Oil Search继续寻求巴布亚液化天然气回填和最佳气田阶段化的机会，以创造价值。Botten补充说，陆上海湾仍然是一个有吸引力的提议，许多tcf结构接近巴布亚液化天然气基础设施的规划。

Oil Search: Papua LNG gas deal close
The Papua New Guinea-focused oil and gas producer, Oil Search, is nearing the finalization of the Papua LNG gas agreement.
Speaking at an event in Port Moresby, Oil Search managing director Peter Botten noted the deal is expected to be finalized by late March and signed in early April.
“A gas agreement between the state and P’nyang (PRL3) joint venture to be finalized soon after,”Botten said.
“Additionally, JV partners are progressing commercial agreements supporting integration, including site and facility access,” he said.
Global LNG demand grew 6 percent in 2018 with further growth of 4.5 percent per annum forecast to 2030. This is driven by government policies and north-east Asia markets prioritizing gas over coal and nuclear power. This means that by 2030, a further 120mtpa of new supply will be required.
This has seen renewed global interest to fill the supply-demand gap into the next decade and buyers seeking to diversify LNG sources from new countries and new sellers.
Oil Search is continuing to pursue opportunities for PNG LNG backfill and optimal gas field phasing to create value, with Botten adding that onshore Gulf remains an attractive proposition, with many tcf-structures close to planned Papua LNG infrastructure.
