石油设备网讯 据路透社3月29日报道称,澳大利亚是全球最大的铁矿石和煤炭出口国,并且即将超越卡塔尔成为全球最大的液化天然气出口国。
澳大利亚液化天然气目前资源收入约为500亿澳元。
三种大宗商品占据了澳大利亚资源收益的最大份额,铁矿石预计将贡献740亿澳元,煤炭将贡献700亿澳元和而液化天然气 则为500亿澳元。
不过,尽管澳大利亚正在享受出口量增加、部分大宗商品价格上涨以及国内货币疲软带来的收益增长,但政府的预测者并不认为这种情况会持续下去。

Australia - on path to become biggest shipper of LNG
Australia is the world's largest exporter of iron ore and coal, and is on the verge of overtaking Qatar as the biggest shipper of LNG.
LNG makes up about A$50 billion in resource earnings currently.
It's little surprise that these three commodities make up the lion's share of resource earnings, with iron ore expected to contribute A$74 billion, coal A$70 billion and LNG A$50 billion.
Much of the strength in earnings from these three heavyweights is down to demand from the world's biggest commodity importer.
But while Australia is enjoying the boost to earnings from higher export volumes, and rising prices for some commodities, as well as a weaker domestic currency, the government's forecaster doesn't expect this to persist.
