石油设备网讯 据世界能源网2019年4月1日休斯敦报道,非洲国家赤道几内亚(赤几)政府周一表示,美国诺布尔能源公司及其合作伙伴将修建一条新的天然气管道,把位于赤几海上的天然气田与陆上液化天然气(LNG)厂连接起来,以促进天然气出口。
根据与赤几政府达成的协议,这条70公里(44英里)长的天然气管道将能从诺布尔能源公司经营的海上气田每天输送9.5亿立方英尺天然气,并将于2021年第一季度竣工投产。
所产天然气一旦在由马拉松石油公司运营的出口厂液化,这些天然气将被运往全球市场。
赤几国有天然气公司Sonagas将在这个项目中的持股比例从25%提高到30%。
赤几政府在声明中称,天然气将来自一家位于两个海上区块被称为Alen的合资企业,这个合资企业预计将在整个项目实施过程中为国家税收贡献15亿至20亿美元。
在收入自2014年以来受到油价下跌和产量下降打击以来,赤道几内亚希望利用其海上气田建立一个天然气出口中心。

New Pipeline Coming Offshore Equatorial Guinea
Noble Energy and partners will build a pipeline linking Equatorial Guinea's offshore gas fields to an onshore liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant to boost exports, the African nation's government said on Monday.
Under a deal with the government the 70 km (44 miles) pipe will have capacity for 950 million cubic feet of gas per day from fields operated by Noble and will be ready in the first quarter of 2021.
once liquefied at the export plant, which is run by Marathon Oil, the gas will be shipped to markets across the globe.
Sonagas GE, the state-run gas company, will increase its stake in the project to 30 percent from 25 percent.
The gas will come from a joint venture called the Alen Unit, located in two offshore blocks, and is expected to contribute between $1.5 billion and $2 billion to state revenues over the course of the project, the government statement said.
Equatorial Guinea hopes to create a gas export hub from its offshore fields after revenues were hit by a dip in oil prices and production since 2014.
